Monsieur Fang fut un guide extraordinaire !!!

Il parle anglais et est une mine d’informations.

C est une personne très agréable, qui organise la journée en détails avec de nombreuses attentions que nous avons apprécié. Il a plaisir à partager sa culture et ses connaissances. La chauffeuse est venue nous chercher en SUV à l’heure, conduite parfaite. Nous avons rejoint le guide qui nous a expliqué certaines choses pendant le trajet.

En arrivant à la réserve tout était bien organisé également. Nous avons pu découvrir chaque cascade et apprécié d agréables baignades ainsi qu’une autre découverte dont je laisse la surprise !:)

Nous avons ensuite déjeuné dans un établissement local avec un copieux repas autour des spécialités thaï parfaitement exécutées et dans une atmosphère chaleureuse. Ensuite nous nous sommes rendus au célèbre point réalisé par les travailleurs thaï et prisonniers de guerre durant la WWII où Monsieur Fang a continué de nous partager son savoir. Nous nous sommes ensuite rendu au musée et petit marché à côté pour observer d autres points de vue sur la rivière. Merci à lui de nous avoir fait passer une journée inoubliable! Paysages, baignade, informations que demander de plus ? Un grand merci et nous ne pouvons que recommander de réserver ce tour !!!

We spent a perfect day with our guide Bass and the driver on a full day trip from Bangkok to the Erawan falls. First we visited the bridge over the Qwai river and the museum and were guided through the history and horrors of the bridge construction that took life of more than 100000 prisoners. After that we visited the Sai Yok cave and drove to the Erawan falls park. Bass arranged for us lunch and was very attentive and helpful during the whole tour. We visited five levels of the falls and greatly enjoyed the different beautiful views of the streaming water at each of the levels. We even swam under one of the waterfalls. Overall it was a great 12 hour experience with an extremely friendly guide and a very good driver that uneventfully brought us back to our hotel in Bangkok. We can highly recommend it.

They picked us up on time, the car was very comfortable. We picked up our guide halfway to the waterfalls. Lookpad was kind, picked good food for us, helped us navigate the steps when we arrived at the park and gave us room to explore on our own afterwards. After we started exploring, we figured we would not have enough time with what she gave us and contacted her and she was more than happy to extend the exploration time for us.

Thanks for your feedback. :)

I’m only adding this note for the readers of your review to avoid any misunderstanding. Our usual pickup time from Bangkok is 6am, but in your case, the pickup was scheduled for 9 am.
