I only put 3 for the train that I find dangerous enough for children. Children a part can be done on foot and seems really unsuitable for the little ones. Otherwise the ride is well, very classic and uninteresting at first but as soon as the train arrives near the Kwai River, the scenery is beautiful and surprising. Side of the waterfalls this very nice. But is not suitable again for very little ones. You will have 7 steps to go through, all under the control of the administrative staff who must ensure your safety. They will ask you to wear a lifejacket that will need to be rented at level 1. Brief beautiful space but with far too many people (not too suitable for people seeking tranquility), and not very suitable for the little ones.
Thank you for your review. We hope to serve you again in the future.
