The activity is quite complete and very comfortable because it is a very small group. Personally, I have to indicate that I have a phobia of snakes and I mentioned it to the guide from the moment he said that we would see some python, so he always tried to take me away and he was worried that he was fine.

The tour was great to see various aspects of this part of the country and as it was a rather small group also not a hassle or uncomfortable in any way. There was a lot to see with interesting information from the guide and interactions with locals on one stop or the other. Best part was definitely the small boat tour through the narrow canals and the honey tea on one of the small islands.
