A day packed with culture, spirituality and flavour. You'll visit three of the most important temples in the Phang Nga province – the Dragon Cave, Bang Rieng Pagoda and Manee Sri Mahathat.

First up is the Dragon Cave Temple. Built within and on top of limestone caves, it's as impressive as it is beautiful. Its monks make healing remedies. Next is Bang Rieng Pagoda Temple, high up in the mountains. It is a mixture of Thai and Chinese influences, and its location offers up amazing views of the area.

The final temple is Manee Sri Mahathat. It boasts a collection of wax statues of Indian, Chinese and Thai deities. But the most popular of all is that of Phor Than Klai – a monk known as ‘Golden Mouth' because of his ability to predict lottery numbers. And to round off the tour, you'll dine at a restaurant in a mangrove jungle, where you can try traditional delicacies.

Otrolig guide men en massa kunskap. Kan dock vara bra att ni skriver på hemsidan att ett tempel kräver mycket gång i trappor/stegar då den är i ett berg och kräver viss fysik.

Jenny vores turguide var virkelig go’ til at forklare om de forskellige templer, kulture og skikke. Lange distancering bus imellem templerne bør nævnes. I turbeskrivelsen står at man ved det sidste tempel møder aber. Det er ikke korrekt. Vi var ved et helt andet tempel og sted. Men alt i alt en dejlig tur.

Tempelturen er ikke for svæklinge. Husk at skrive om de mange trapper ved det sidste tempel Thap Put. Ellers dejlig tur med god tysktalende guide .

Very good tour. Especially the guide called "Gift" was excellent. She spoke very fluent english and had a personal take on buddhism. Food was excellent and the location of the restaurant was absolutely marvellous.

The Flights was very long. Due to the conflict in Ukraine, we had to take a detour around the Caspian Sea. This prolonged the trip both ways by 45 mins. During the flight there were only 2 servings. The food served, was sub standard, and you had to pay for drink to go with the food. The kids on the plane were served first which was ok, but the "Grown-Ups" were not served before 30-45 mins after. The bread was not heated, which resulted in semi frozen loafs of something that reminded us of bricks. The Tax-Free stuff onboard, was sold out (most of it), and the selection of stuff was really poor.

Fantastisk guide som verkligen hade själ och hjärta med sig. Bra engelska och med sin tro och hennes berättelser så fick man veta väldigt mycket om buddismen och hur man blir munk.
