          This is a must do if you have any interest in WW2 and the ordeals of the PoWs and the local populations.
          This was a long day but well worth it. We saved on a few other parts of this holiday so that we could afford this day out, and have no regrets in spending the extra on a private tour. Our guide was reasonably knowledgable, and left us to our own devices when appropriate - if you're after a step-by-step explanation of every part of the day then maybe this particular tour is not for you, but it worked for us. The absolute hightlght is Hellfire Pass, and the work that the Australian government have done here is amazing.

          All in all a great day.
          This was a great trip. Our tour guide Pipop was great. He had lots to show and talk about. We never felt rushed. The elephant experience was a highlight as was swimming at the falls. We had an excellent lunch, better than some restaurants we have eaten at in Bangkok. Next time in Bangkok we would happily take a tour with Pipop again.

          The natural beauty of Thailand
          A perfectly condensed trip to experience the natural beauty and places of Thailand. Excellent driver and very knowledgeable tour guide. Waterfall and elephants were amazing. Bring a towel and shoes/flip flops that can get wet!

          Absolutely amazing tour
          We had the most fantastic day. Nui was our driver, the vehicle was clean and comfortable and well driven. Yokie was our guide, she was very helpful, friendly and professional. The day was amazing, so much to see and do, and all kept on schedule while feeling leisurely and at our own pace. The lunch was fantastic, the best Thai coconut soup I’ve ever tasted, and the banana fritters are to die for. The elephant experience was out of this world, feeding, washing, cuddling these beautiful beings. We highly recommend this tour, it’s an amazing and personal experience that you’ll never forget.

          Waterfalls Elephants & Countryside
          Great trip. The falls are beautiful and a great way to “get your steps” in and personally experience the beautiful Thai countryside Despite heavy flooding at the Elephant rescue center - our guide was able to get operator to get us meet one of the elephants and feed a lot of watermelon

          Highly recommend this tour! Great day!
          The trip was outstanding and better than expected. Our guide “Guitar” was great. Not only did he handle all tour matters but took photos and video for us and sent them to us after the trip. He was very knowledgeable of all areas visited and the areas we drove through in the trip. We were picked up in a luxury modified van with air conditioning and reclining leather seats. In addition to our guide Guitar, we also had a driver. We visited all of the sites mentioned in the trip decription and we were very pleased with the entire tour and would highly recommend it to those visiting Bangkok!!

          Drawn waterfall experience in June
          The waterfall was not exactly as in the picture advertised although the place could still be called ‘beautiful’. Access to the waterfall swimming area is rather steep, a little difficult and not very safe. I wish the government made it more accessible so people of all ages could enjoy. The guide was pleasant, experienced, friendly and patient and the vehicle was comfortable. The driver was friendly n a safe driver.

          Good
          Such an incredible trip! Our tour guide and driver were so friendly. She provided an excellent time. She arrived promptly at 06:30 in the lobby of our hotel. The van was clean and all to ourselves. The guide and driver were so kind and accommodating! Our favorite part of the trip was visiting the waterfall and seeing the elephants. Visiting with the elephants was relatively quick. I would recommend you pack and extra set of clothes because the elephants will you get wet (despite not planning to get in the river). We were dropped off at a very clean restaurant for lunch. Cannot emphasis cleanliness enough. The ride back was supposed to be 3.5 hours, but due to the rain/flash flooding, ended up taking 5 hours. Be prepared and pack a book or entertainment for these unexpected delays. Traffic in Bangkok was an absolute nightmare. Good tour, just have entertainment for the long ride!

          Great places to visit
          That was a great trip. The journey was long, but we had a good driver and guide. Krit had a very good knowledge about everything. The van was comfortable, lunch was delicious, and the places were amazing. I highly recommend this trip. It was worth the price.

          An amazing day!
          Had an amazing time on this tour - the elephant sanctuary is a once in a lifetime experience. Our guide Nan was so knowledgeable and assured us we can visit all the sites at our own pace, whether that was quick or slow. We spent a lot of time swimming at Erawan falls, the water was cool but relaxing. It is a long drive home, but absolutely worth it in my opinion.

          River Kwai visit
          Great day abs well worth a visit. It’s a lot if travelling from Bangkok to the locations but it was something we wanted to do. We was not disappointed and Peter our guide and our driver were great company for the full day (12 hours in total) The good thing is …you can catch up on some sleep during travelling time as the transportation is very comfortable and cool

          Excellent Guide and Tour!
          An excellent tour, thanks to our tour guide “Bella”. She was knowledgeable and cared for all our needs. The lunch buffet was of good standard as well with a very nice selection. My mother and I enjoyed the experience / day very much (from the famous bridge over river Kwai, the waterfalls and national park, death railway and elephant sanctuary visit). We learned a lot about the tragic history around the railway construction and Japanese invasion shortly after Pearl Harbor. I am grateful for this newly acquired knowledge. Once again, thank you Bella!

        Booked this tour via VIATOR. Our tour guide, Mr. Peter is fun to be with. He is also sensitive to his customer's needs. He goes out of his way to provide the best of the tour itself. He goes above the tour itinerary. Thank you Mr. Peter!

        We chose this tour because we did not have the time to coordinate logistics for our own tour of both cities in one day. Plus we did not want to be stuck out in the heat. Our guide (Amy or Amoh) was lovely. Very friendly, informative, and managed the tour well. We loved the place she took us for lunch as well. My only disappointment was the cost - almost $400 for one adult and two children. Compared to other tours and expenses during our trip in Thailand this is way above normal which I now know. As a comparison - we later did a half day elephant experience with transport for $90 for 3 people and a full day lake/hike/swim tour including 2 hours transport and lunch for $100 - for 3 people. This is 4-5x the amount of similar tours. I’m sharing only for context so that others can shop around.
