    We were not met at airport by tour guide. But eventually did meet them the drivers were great. In phuket we never spoke or met guide only driver. And only one tour to see the gibbons which we found interesting the rest of time on own no proper detailed itinerary was provided even though I asked for it several times. Out of 3 guides I rate Mona first, and Wynn second. There wasn't a third guide only a driver we felt somewhat cheated. Very poorly organized.

    It was an incredibly well-planned tour. The itinerary covered all the highlights of Thailand and everything was running like a clock. Our favorite parts were visiting Ayutthaya and the elephant sanctuary, the beach was nice too. A big thanks to Long, who was coordinating our trip, he was always available for us and took good care of everything

    I just arrived home. I intend on giving you an overall impression of my experience once I am rested and have processed what I experienced. My first suggestion when dealing with Americans is not to bombard them with questions when they haven’t had enough time to process the cultural differences. You are more likely to get a more positive response if you allow the client to re-aclamate a few days, adjust to time difference and lack of sleep. Remember, they went to your county in search of calm and peace. Let them enjoy the experience on reflection. ????
