It was perfectly organized, I felt safe all the time and the views were stunning. Besides the regular touring he helped me with the bus transfer, offered a place to take a shower after the tour…

We had the best time during our 2 days tour with Pat and his team! … a wonderful hike in the jungle leading to the best viewpoint we had in Laos!
Lucie Desmoulin Google review
But hang on tight for the climb it’s tough! Still, no pain, no view… and trust us, the view is totally worth it!
Felix Dagnaud Google review
We had a really tasty dinner (they catered for Vegetarians too) … We got picked up and dropped off from the town before and after the hikes and had a guide for the hike up and down too.
Owen Knight Google review
It was a little bit more money than some other tours but the extra cost in price is completely worth it! It is incredible value for money!!
Jack Paddick Google review
