    No way!!!

    Were in May 2019. The water level is apparently low at this time, because Looking ahead, we were offered to change the boat. At once I would like to say that the trip was not planned there, and therefore we did not have any information...More

    Tourist Scam, should be Avoided.

    The NO REFUNDS sign should have raised alarm bells the moment we walked into the reception. This sign is obviously in place due to the number of complaints received. What should also be noted is that there are no written prices and based on my...More

    Fascinating insight into a traditional way of life

    This is one of those typically low level tourist attractions that is quite busy but rather charmingly chaotic at the same time. The floating village itself is very authentic although where you can visit is obviously the touristy part. Nice boat ride that gives you...More
