Loved the ride and the...

Loved the ride and the explanation about the locations we visited. Tour guide was excellent. However, no where in the description did it mention about visiting a cashew factory or a gem factory. Please make sure that you have that in your description. We were not interested in those two factories. We could have seen more tourist places in that 2 hr timeframe.

Tour guide Tou

Our tour guide Toy was lovely and very happy and enthusiastic and always making jokes! She was patient when waiting for everyone to return to the bus at the end of each experience. I was travelling alone and Toy offered to take my photo at every location and even pointed me in a better location to get a better photo. The photos she took were amazing, so thank you!!

Great way to see a lot in a relatively short time with a small group and knowledgeable tour guide for a really good price.. from the big Buddha to the cashew nut faarm to the gem centre and much more. Very good value for money
