Had an awesome time kayaking! - It was so much fun kayaking down the river! I was picked up from my hotel a few minutes early and then it was just a short ride down to the dock. Once we got there into the water we went and honestly I had a blast our guide was really nice he made a point of talking to all of us and getting some pictures of everyone. All in all I would definitely go again. There are also lockers there to store your stuff so if your like me and will splash yourself a lot you can bring an extra pare of clothes.

Relaxing and beautiful experience, Must try! - I was picked up from the hotel on time and taken to the riverside. The guide was very friendly and spoke English well. We enjoyed around two hours of kayaking on the river while the guide shared insights about Thai culture. The guide accompanied us throughout the ride, and the sunset views were stunning. I highly recommend this experience!

Nice way to spend a few hours. - Kayaking on the river was enjoyable. We were stuck in traffic for sunset, which would have been nice to see while on the river, but it was a good experience and very peaceful. The guide, Tono, was kind. Pick up and drop off made it all quite easy. A good time.

Nice Evening on the Ping River - The guide is really helpful and friendly and the river is flat and easy to navigate. It’s fun to paddle past the locals out fishing, and when it gets dark the riverside restaurants look really cool all lit up. I definitely recommend this easy, chill paddle up and down the Ping River.

Ok but not great, but price is good. - River is basic and lots of trees. Paddling upstream is a challenge if you’ve never been in a kayak before but then when we turn around to go back to pier the current takes you back, and your arms get a break. They do have 1 and 2 person kayaks which isn’t mentioned but is helpful.

Guide left 2people in a... - Guide left 2people in a boat that struggled and had to turn back. Wasn’t what we expected as only 3km, half of which was upstream and only lasted 1hr. Sunset was lovely though
