The excursion turned out to be very intense and at times felt almost surreal. It was like visiting several completely different Thailands in just one day. The temple with the dragon impressed us the most - a strange feeling, but one that stays with you for a long time. We loved how the locations and emotions kept changing: from nature and silence to the energy of the city. Seeing the railway market in real life was truly impressive. The evening in Amphawa with the fireflies became the perfect end to the day - calm, atmospheric, and beautiful. We were properly tired, but in that good way when you know the day was packed to the fullest. This tour is definitely not about lying around, but about collecting experiences on your feet - and there are plenty of them here.
