Aziz· November 30th, 2018Wit was exceptionally friendly and caring. He seemed to have every small detail nailed. Always punctual, polite and knew how to deal on a one on one basis. This takes talent.Explore! commented on this reviewThanks for the great feedback, we'll pass those comments straight to Wit!Trip date: November 2018- SSSarah· November 30th, 2018This tour was a wonderful opportunity to have experiences of the country and people of Thailand Laos and Cambodia. I loved the amount of time spent on the water and in the countryside. Our guide, Wit, provided amazing perspective given his background as a Buddhist monk, his interest in advancing socially just causes, and his incredible positive energy. The “local guides “ were more uneven in terms of their capacity to communicate with clarity, though the guide in Phnom Penh provided an amazing personal story of her family’s experience of the Khmer Rouge. The accommodations were always adequate but sometimes located further from the center of town than would have been convenient to allow easy access during our free time. I loved that our group ended up being only six people because it allowed us to bond and rely on each other for support when needed.Show moreExplore! commented on this reviewthanks for the great feedback, especially your comments on Wit who is one of our superstar leaders!Trip date: November 2018
