What a day! We can’t thank Manila travel enough for this amazing experience! All of the guides, drivers, cooks and everyone else involved were very friendly and helpful. We felt very looked after on this trip. We visited a lovely village with friendly people, cycled through beautiful countryside, kayaked along the river, had a delicious lunch, spent time with elephants and visited Pak Ou caves. I would recommend this for fit people that enjoy an active tour. I slightly over estimated my physical abilities but allowances were made for me which I really appreciated. Thank you so much for a brilliant day that I will never forget.

We had an amazing 1/2 day trip. Waterfalls were beautiful and lovely to swim in. It was great to see the moon bears at the Save The Bears sanctuary. Enjoyed learning about Hmong culture from our village visit. We had a fantastic, knowledgeable and entertaining guide. Highly recommended.

Nous recommandons ce tour à 100%. C’était extrêmement bien organisé, nous avons même pu prendre des douches, profiter de la piscine entre les activités. Nous avions un guide privé pour notre famille (merci Lan) et toutes les boissons et repas étaient inclues. Un grand moment que la rencontre avec les éléphants qui restera gravé dans nos souvenirs toute notre vie. Manifa fait tout pour que notre journée soit parfaite 👍🤩
