a) Refund issue I paid 2x100$ for privat tour for 2 pax. Tour operator canceled that tour and suggest another for 2x54$(Mossy Forest 4 hours). So I’m expecting full refund 200-108=92$. Tour operator sent me back only 71.76$. I’m disappointed here b) Tour issue Tour was good. No concerns about driver or car. But we expected that in will be tour with guide not just a driver c) Same privat tour’s price for 4hours(Mossy Forest) for 2 pax in Cameron from local tour guides is 280myr = 59$ total. So think about it

I was expecting to see the world largest Rafflesia but it decided to hide from me. I gave almost 1 hrs to find it but as per tour guide , some time it difficult to see. No problem next time ..

La experiencia es maravillosa en tanto te garantizan ver una de las flores, pero esto implica que el tour puede durar más o menos según lo que se demoren en encontrarla. Es importante tener presente que físicamente es una experiencia que puede ser difícil porque es entrar a una zona de bosque llena de barro, así que es posible que haya caídas o zonas de mayor esfuerzo; eso si, el guía se esfuerza por ayudar. También debe tenerse en cuenta que la guía que te recoge no es la que te lleva a la experiencia sino otra persona que no habla bien inglés pero se esfuerza mucho en compartir contigo lo que sabe. Posterior a ver la flor vuelves al punto de partida y ahí te llevan a una plantación de te para que pagues tu entrada si quieres recorrerla o tomes te si quieres comprarlo.
