I was guided over a 6 day period. The trip included two home stays with families in the rural area around Khon Kaen. This offered the chance to meet and have dinner with the families - all in all a priceless experience. The trip also included visits to Temples, village weavers, a Buddha foundry, a birding tour and much more! The trip was well planned and the guide was flexible about changes as we went. One of the best things about the whole trip was the respect the guide and owner had for the people visited (as opposed to some other tours where it was almost like a walk through a zoo). This was an outstanding "off the beaten path" experience- very highly recommended!!
