Join local festival in Village of Chiang Mai |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Our stay in the Hmong village was an enormous adventure. We felt that we were accepted as equal and we were invited to take part in their way of living. Late in the evening around the camp fire we had an interesting exchange of views with four of the older men and two of their sons.....We took part in their service at church and my wife and my younger daughter presented a folk dance to them (I'm impressed - we normally don't perform).We will also try to write an article from our stay at the Hmong people for the local newspaper. If you have your Web page available within the next weeks we will include this in the article - if OK to you. |

You are probably aware of our trip recently arranged between yourselves and Symbiosis of London. We wish to tell you how much we enjoyed the trip and the itinerary arranged by yourselves. Also we wish to make you aware of how much we enjoyed the service proved by “Poe” and the driver. Although the driver spoke little English, he was always very cheerful and happy to point out all the land marks he could. He didn’t seem to miss a thing – whether it was a village or house we should stop at or some land mark. He really knew the North of Thailand very well. |

Thanks so much for leading us through this wonderful adventure ! It was truly a pleasure to observe & experience Thai life outside Bangkok. While these past couple days have been deliciously relaxing & peaceful, you somehow managed to also show us many interesting sites -The floating market, the temple, the coconut sugar factory, to name a few I feel the trip was superbly organized & executed. |

Your guide Jack provided me a wonderful trip into rural Thailand. Our rafting trip and elephant trek were preludes to the highlight ….a day and night in a Hmong village. The people there were so welcoming and so delightful, I enjoyed every moment. Jack in particular is an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide, and his English is nearly perfect ! For the adventurous traveler, I highly recommend this tour. David John Frank |

""""Mr. Jack: Wow. He knows so much. And yet he was able to say "I don't know" when he didn't know. We learned so much. Jack is passionate about his country and the history and future of the hill tribe communities. He was very true to his convictions: we stayed in and saw all that was original. I must say that I'm glad we didn't go on a different trek. There were several advertised in Chaing Mai but they would not have been anything like what we did. And the only reason we could enjoy such a remarkable journey so much was because of our guide. We were comfortable letting him represent us to these communities. We trusted him" |

Dear Poe How are you? I hope everyrthing is fine. Well we received your message at the hotel late evening on Wednesday as we had gone out. Glad to hear that you all had a safe trip back to Bangkok. Well Poe let me say what a wonderful trip we had under your guidance. We have been many places but you have truly been our best guide ever. You made our trip so comfortable through your kind consideration, your care, and your great sense of humour. It was truly a perfect holiday for us. We are back safe at home with our family and I am going back to work on Monday, Subhas has already been back to work. The orchids did not survive the trip however, as they froze in the luggage in the airplane. Well I am still leaving them in the bottle for a while and hope that by some miracle they will revive. Well thanks again and give our regards to our driver Vidiah & Subhas |

Hi Duangkamol,
I've been meaning to email you and thank you on planning a wonderful trip! We thoroughly enjoyed Thailand and recommend it to everyone we tell our trip about.
The most enjoyable day was the Be an Elephant Owner for a day. We also had a great time at the cooking class. We tell our friends not to miss Chang Mai if they go to Thailand. We also enjoyed Hua-Hin very much. However, it would have been much better if we knew it wasn't the season to go swimming (because of the jelly fish!). If that were the case, we might have chosen another beach spot.
Mr. Poe and Mr. Chan were a delight to be with during our trip. They prepared us well for the excursions and really allowed us to get to know what Thai people were all about. Mr. Poe was especially friendly and did a lot for us - he definitely exceeded our expectations as a tour guide. We will definitely remember him as a wonderful tour guide and he will be the measuring stick for tour guides in our future travels!
Even though the overnight train ride was a great experience, taking the flight back was much more convenient and not much more expensive. A great part about our trip was definitely the Thai massages - it was definitely a one of a kind experience.
All the hotels we stayed at were very good, clean, and we appreciated their attentiveness to being Green. We especially enjoyed the Thai food, fruits, and furniture! By the way, do you recommend any websites that sell Thai furniture and will ship to the US (that is priced reasonably)?
Thank you again for a planning and recommending a great trip.
Best regards,
Omar

30 Jan 2012 Duangkamol, the trip you organised was sensational and would recommend your services to absolutely anyone. Your staff are impeccable, their always friendly, respectful, professional and trustworthy. We never had to wait for anyone! The trip was very well organised. Additionally, I really enjoyed Joe’s knowledge of Thailand’s history and way of life – this made the trip even more special as we now are more educated about the true Thai culture. We became enchanted by Thailand... J Please don’t change a thing...! However, importantly - please praise your staff for me. Thank you! Regards, Simon Carroll aipp

Hi Duangkamol: Sawasdee.
We have just returned back to Canada and I would like to commend you and your team for a wonderful experience in Thailand from Feb 10-15, 2012.
My wife and I had an enjoyable time and learned a lot about your beautiful country ... thanks to the pleasant company and tremendous knowledge of our guides, Mr. Poe and Mr. Chan.
Both of these gentlemen took great care of us, kept us safe, provided us great advice, adjusting the itinerary as needed and ensured we experienced all that we could of Thailand in the relatively short time we had there. They definitely exceeded our expectations. It was a pleasure to spend some time with them and they are a credit to Wild Thailand.
In addition, I commend you on the very smooth process of organizing the tour, the payment and the execution of the tour.
It was a relief when everything worked according to plan especially dealing with a new organization (for me) from so far away.
The only problem we had on the tour was with the Chiang Mai Plaza hotel which was really not suitable for us. It was old with a very outdated check-out procedure and a lack of customer service at both the front desk and the dining room. Thankfully, we didn’t have to spent too much time there.
However, I will certainly recommend Wild Thailand to anyone wanting to experience Thailand in an up close and personal manner.
All the best. Maybe we will “see” each other again some day.
Thanks.

Sawasdee kah Hello Duangkamol Thank you so much in helping me organize a trip of a life time. We did all the things that we wanted to see and do in Thailand and more. You were very helpful and instrumental in co-ordinating everything to make our trip enjoyable. I wanted to let you know the amazing vacation my sisters and I had in Thailand. We loved Chiang Mai. The people, the culture, the food and this was all made possible by Mr. Chan educating us on the Thai culture, language, customs and etiquette, politics, religion and the life of the hill tribes we visited. It was quite the experience to see the joy in the children's faces when we gave them little treats that we offered them. This was all provided by Mr. Chan and he gave us each the opportunity of handing them out to the kids. We actually felt part of the community and thoroughly enjoyed the time we spent with the tribes. We enjoyed the comaraderie with our guide, Mr. Chan and our driver, Manu. We visited the market and enjoyed all the fruits that Chiang Mai had to offer. Mr. Chan was excellent and he picked up on all the things we liked and made sure that we experienced everything we wanted. He even was there when my sister needed that helping hand walking down the trails and captured every kodak moment possible throughout the trip. I also appreciated the fact that the company that you arranged the kayaking trip with in Phuket prided themselves in providing the best possible experience by not over booking their tours. As some of the other groups we saw were quite large. Ours seemed more personal and we actually kayaked ourselves as opposed to being kayaked. You remember our guide in Phuket was in an accident and wasn't able to give us the tour included in our itinerary and the driver's English wasn't very good. Sea Canoe was able to provide us with a driver the following day to see a bit of the island, which I thought was a very nice gesture since we were not able to see the island when we arrived. I will definitely recommend Wild Thailand to anyone wanting to visit Thailand. I have already told many tourist during our travels what a wonderful experience we have had with your tour company. Thank you. Sincerely Cathy Ayow Canada |
