“We had the boat to ourselves and our young guide was so great at spotting things of interest in the undergrowth. It was relaxing and fascinating all at once! As it was just us we picked the stops we wanted and not those we didn't! He found jellyfish, baby alligators and huge lizard. We visited a cinnamon island and saw lots of different plants and enjoyed the breeze of the river boat at speed!”

“Rasidu is een aardige man maar is geen gids. Hij wist niks over de plekker te vertellen. Je kon het jezelf uitzoeken. Sprak slecht engels waardoor we bij een Ayurvedische stonden maar hem al had verteld dat ik er niet naartoe wou. Hij was alleen maar met zijn telefoon bezig en selfies aan het maken. Liep continu door mijn camerabeeld. Luisterde niet naar mij maar alleen maar naar zichzelf. Dit was echt heel slecht. Deze man is een chauffeur en geen gids. Hij mag echt niet ip zo’n tour meegaan. Ik heb spijt dat ik met hem ben gegaan. Hij gaf veel iritaties. Zeker met zijn telefoongedrag. Ik moest wachten…”
