    On the whole this was a disappointing tour for a few reasons. The pickup/drop off was with one vehicle for everybody no matter where people stayed and for us it meant 2.5 hours before and 2.5 hours after the tour which is unacceptable for a 5 hour tour, especially after paying extra for transport. Old town walking around for 20mins was on our own because of traffic delay. We didn’t get to try Thai pancake listed on the tour either and that’s probably also because of delay. Elephant sanctuary experience was also average and not sure it was worth the time and money. The care takers there were very nice and did explain a lot of things. Our tour guide Tong was also very good and he did the best he could with the poorly designed and planned tour by the agency. I would not recommend it.
