Amazing - Great transportation, the tour guide woman gave us good history, kept us on time, and worth the money and time. The lunch was delicious and you can eat as much as you can. The coconut chicken soup outstanding. The temples are beautiful and we will be back . The trip was for educational purposes and we will bring our students next time.

Extraordinary temple tour. Road trip is off putting - The temples were extraordinary but the road trip really took the shine off the tour. Our van was packed full of people and was most uncomfortable.

Nice but... - The experience includes a visit to the White Temple, Blue Temple, and Black House museum. Departures from hotels take place early in the morning , around 7 am . A minivan collects all the tourists of the various hotels and after about an hour and a half you stop for a half-hour pit stop at the long neck Village. Demonstration village where you can find local tribes in traditional clothes. In our case the entrance fee was not included in the Tour. It costs 300 THB per person .( nothing exciting and in my opinion avoidable ) After the stop, continue for another hour and a half and then reach the White Temple. A half hour will be enough to visit the temple and the surrounding area. From the meeting point we moved with a short walk to a place where they served buffet lunch included in the price. ( don't have high expectations , but if you are not too picky you will be able to eat the right ) After the break , about twenty minutes by minivan , you reach the Blue Temple . It will take about twenty minutes to visit everything. Finally , as a last stop , we will stop at the black house museum ( museum and former home of a very famous Thai artist surrounded by a park ) , personally and unexpectedly the part I liked the most . Afterwards , we leave for return to the city with a journey lasting about 3 h . Personally , given the long and tiring journey and the length of visits to the respective places , I can say that I had better experiences during my stay in Thailand . However , there are still two particular times , suggestive and therefore worth visiting . reckless

Temples amazing but the extras stops cost us seeing some key attrsctions - It would be better to fly to Chang mai and view this rather than endless hours in a mini bus. The temples are amazing. Also the guise wanted us to buy water which for me should have been provided (cold). Prioritising viewing of the cave and museum should have taken pretence over lunch as the cave was closed unit 14:00 perhaps missing out the natural spring and tourist trap. For me it was okay value for money but not our time

Need good English specking guide - Guide was not good in specking English. Timing in white temple was 1 hour which was not enough. Blue temple time was given only 30 minutes, not enough

Unacceptable dangerous driving - The temples themselves were incredible and definitely worth seeing, the hot springs were a bit of a con but broke the journey up and the Karen village more of a tourist trap than a genuine village. The reason for the 1 star was actually the driving in the minibus, 3 hours of dangerous driving and overtakes on blind corners making my partner feel sick and the entire bus unsafe. I eventually called the driver out on it and insisted he stop however by that point the damage was done and we were too worked up to enjoy the trip which was a shame because as I say the temples are spectacular and worth the visit just consider how you get there.
