Great day out - Wow, what an amazing day we had. Tour leader Kity ( Miss Coco) and driver Mr Loi were great. Pick up and drop off at hotel was as expected. Provided lunch was delicious. Well organised day out. Tips….. take small notes to buy from the Long neck ladies village. Long pants for ladies and pack extra water. You can’t touch the water at the hot springs. Was hoping for a dip !! The white palace was an absolute highlight of our day. Thank you to our group for a memorable day out. Highly recommend this tour. Pick up 7.30 am drop off 9.30pm. Worth every $$$
