    This was one of my favourite tours so far, while I have been in Thailand. Our tour guide, Ms Chin was absolutely wonderful. She was so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The Tsunami memorial was really informative and the staff once again, really helpful. The Sunday Market was brilliant. So much to see and eat and it was do cheap! The visit to the beautiful Buddist Temple made for a really serene experience and I cannot recommend this tour enough.

    Great trip! Definitely recommend. Lots of variety and you learn a little about the area and the people and their resilience. The Tsunami Museum was very interesting and the exhibits allowed an insight into what happened as well as the how. You are able to walk in, around the temple as well as seeing the monks go about their daily lives. The old town is great to see the link between the old and the new as well as trying as much or little street food as you would like. We loved our trip.

    Really nice tour to the Tsunami Museum ( not “nice” but insightful), to the beautiful Wat Khong Kha Pimuk (temple), and to Takua Pa Sunday Market. Because of the rain the market wasn’t as packed with stalls as it normally would be so our wonderful guide Robert took us to a local tea house and brought as an array of treats from the market to try! Robert spoke English really well, the best we’ve heard from a Thai tour guide/hospitality person on our trip; and he was friendly and insightful throughout the whole trip and made it engaging! Before the tour we were worried that the heavy rain will be a downer on the tour but he made sure we were having a good time and gave us lots of good historical insights into the places we went. I’d highly recommend this tour!

    We did this tour and 2 others with tourplan Khao Lak and they were all amazing. Super easy communication via whatsap, great value for money and friendly knowledgeable guides. I would certainly recommend this tour and any others they offer.
