We did half day and a full day tour with Eddie. We went to a waterfall, visited local villages on foot and by bike, trekked thru rice fields, visited a market, cooked a meal hosted by a local family and walked to a cave. Many different experiences in the short time we were there. Eddie was the best guide we could ask for. He is a very kind and enthusiastic person, passionate about his job and very competent on explaining us the local culture. He is also a very good cook 😊. He was very reliable, easy to reach and always available to help out if someone needed something. He could also easily modify the program according to the weather. Definitely suggested tours and guide. Thank you Eddie we will remember you and Pu Luong with a smile.
