I was not updated about the meeting time that was 7:00am so I waiting at the meeting point since 5:40am and as a solo traveller I really freaked out. I think to the travellers who are taking the tour should have full information about the guide before hand meaning contact number in case of any emergency like this.

Good, on time service. Driver was present right on time. The car was clean, well maintained, and with good AC - much needed in the hot thai weather. Driver was flexible in taking you places as requested. He even suggested good places, and was ok to take my photo when needed.

The tour was perfectly organised. The guide catered to our needs. The Sanctuary of Truth is a muct visit! Marvellous structure. Beach time was fun too. And last but not the least, the weather dictates it all. We couldn't make to the view point as it was raining.

I would definitely recommend hiring a private driver to take you sightseeing. I made up my own agenda for the day and he helped with the order of some activities. Worth it!

laid back morning at beach. Temple was incredible. but really long day after traveling back and forth to Pattaya...
