Our 5 day tour of the Golden Triangle was awe inspiring.  It was well organised from the moment we arrived in Chiang Mai and were collected at the airport.  Our tour guide (Noot) was exceptional and was more like travelling around with a friend.  Her knowledge (and ability to communicate it) brought the places we visited to life and gave us a real insight of northern Thailand.

The fact that we could book incoming and outgoing flights through A&F tours was a bonus, as was the ability to be flexible with the itinerary.

The real highlights were the elephant camp, the temple of Wat Longkun and meeting the local tribes people.

Overall a fantastic experience that was well organised.  Outstanding :)

• We never had problems because of the political issues.
• Having a van with air conditioner is really a plus!
• The 3 hotels were very nice (The I Residence is the one we liked the
  most) and the service from the guides and hotel staff was excellent!
• Our best guide was Dere (in Chiang Mai) – he was very nice to us and
  knows very well the places we visited, as well as cultural and historical
  information.
• Natapong (or Bruno) was very nice to us too, the fact that he speaks
  Spanish was a nice detail but we think that the only thing he is missing
  is more detailed information (historical and cultural) from all the
  temples we visited with him (in Bangkok).
• The Elephant Camp, the Phi Phi Island tour and the Cantonese dinner were
  excellent (just to mention some).
• The Golden Triangle trip we think is very long to do so few things,
  maybe it will be nice to stay one day there and have more activities or if
  it is not possible do another trip instead.
• Finally, your service and attentions as Tourist Agency is very good. We
  got a really nice impression from you. Thanks for everything!

Thank you so much for organising this trip for us. We had a great time and are now back home in Australia. We are considering more trips around SE Asia and will certainly be booking through your office again.

We would like to ask you a favour, we had a fantastic guide called Sam (Samnung?) in Siem Riep. A young man around 27. We have many friends who are interested in going after hearing our story. Are you able to find out his full name and how to contact him? We were on the tour from Aug 20 to 22 and stayed at the Tara Angkor Hotel. We will recommend to our friends to contact you for booking but they would like to know if Sam will be available in future

The trip was organized very well by A&F tour: pick up was organized, hotel perfect, the tour not too much but not too less, very good quality guide with good knowledge of history, customs, nature and even with some singing talent, Ramayana performance in front of Prambanan temple and even the choice of the restaurants and the food quality was good (which is the most difficult task for a Thai group).

All over, one the nicest and most impressive trips in Asia I ever did!

The only negative point is the inconvenience changing the airplane with Airasia.

Anyhow, thanks a lot to make this possible and maybe we will have the chance again next year.

Our group of 19 passengers has just returned from a holiday in Thailand which was booked through your company.  It would be a grave miscarriage of justice if I were not to write to acknowledge the hard work, dedication to detail and the extremely cheerful and ever obliging attitude of Mr Sann in helping my group have such an enjoyable and memorable holiday in Thailand.  I would be very grateful if you would kindly pass on our sentiments to Mr Sann.  He is an asset to your company and it has been a pleasure dealing with him.  I can assure you we on our part will do our utmost to recommend your company ( and Khun Sann in particular ) to any friend wishing to have a holiday in South-East Asia.

We had a wonderful trip! Thanks so much for the great package you put together. We enjoyed having the vans, drivers and guides for our personal service and all were very expert and knowledgeable. The accommodations were clean and comfortable and ranged from quite lavish to rather ordinary, but everything met or exceeded our expectations. The food was delicious, varied and extremely plentiful. In fact, several times we asked for smaller portions because we simply could not eat the over-abundance of food served. The main attractions were the scenery – which was magnificent – incredible mountains, lakes and forests… and the culture – fascinating and varied! We appreciated being off the beaten track, and away from the big cities, yet everywhere we went, we encountered people who strove to care for us and insure a pleasant visit. Though not every detail was perfect, (as you could hardly expect on a trip of such complexity,) we were impressed by the level of coordination that was involved in making sure our transportation, accommodations, and itinerary all flowed together, involving as they did several locations and different sets of guides and drivers. Our first guide, Karen, even made sure that the hotel provided a birthday cake for Nancy 's birthday! We have been telling our friends about the great value and service you provided and will definitely look to you again for future holiday tours.
