The tour guide spoke good English. The tour was a good mix of being guided and being able to explore for ourselves. The guide was always available and could answer all questions.

It was impressive experience, well operated trip. However, boat to see firefly was boring because could not see much firefly. Also, time between seeing 2 trains passing by needs to fulfil by taking us to visit the temple nearby or surrounding area.
