Our visit to the village has been the most wonderful experience. Ploy is a very helpful professional guide with her beautiful smile, friendliness, and easy-to-follow explanation. We were able to relax, enjoy and understand everything. The people in the village made us feel welcome and at home we felt very comfortable and had a lot of fun learning about their handcrafts. They taught us how to do some and let us have a go which was very kind of them! We would love to come back and visit again. Thank you Wayne+Hilary Phillips Wellington New Zealand
