Tina, our local specialist, was extremely responsive and professional, both during the planning process and while we were traveling. I was very impressed! We thoroughly enjoyed our guide Lena while in Bangkok. She spoke excellent English and her knowledge of both Thailand in general, and of all of the places we visited with her, was impressive.

Hotel Reviews
The Quarter Hua Lamphong by UHG
Bangkok

The room itself was very nice. The road noise from outside was a bit distracting, but overall, a nice place to stay. Very friendly staff.

Boutique Raft Resort River Kwai
Kanchanaburi

The staff was very friendly and the location along the river was nice. The food from the restaurant was also very good. Our main issue was that the air conditioning was antiquated so it took hours for the room to become a bearable temperature. That and we had several bugs and lizards in our room.

Authenticity & Character
Almost too rustic with poor air conditioning and places for critters to get into our room, which they did. Charming appearance.

Again, air conditioning didn't work well, though it was extremely hot the days we were there. Would recommend the hotel allow guest to keep the key card inserted while out for the day so the electricity remains on and air conditioning keeps room comfortable.

Half-Day Doi Suthep Temple Tour
Half-Day Doi Suthep Temple Tour
Chiang Mai

This activity was substituted from our original plan due to the water festival going on. The temple itself was less grand than others we visited, but we assume that was due to the changes that needed to be made, which is understandable. The best part of this tour was our guide. I believe his name was Bee or Vee. He was so friendly, his English was excellent, and was so funny and warm. He gave us lots of great info about Thailand and Chiang Mai. We enjoyed him immensely.
