All in all this was an interesting trip with Asian Trails. Our trip was confirmed the night before at our hotel. The included meals were good and lots of food. The Jungle Raft hotel was a good experience. The trip would have been 5 stars except for the guide we had for the first morning and 2nd afternoon by the name of Susan. Her way of speaking English and use of words was very hard to understand and she had the annoying habit of referring to herself in the third person as Susan. She never used Me. The guide we had for the first afternoon and 2nd morning was excellent. He took us to the hotel and the mon village. Another disappointment was that We were unable to see Hellfire Pass. Not the fault of the tour company as it was closed for the holiday and company didn't know at time of our reservation and did notify us in advance by email and we didn't have availability to change the date. I mention Hellfire Pass because I feel the substitute site was really not comparable. It was ok. The River Kwai and bridge were great to see and the museum is excellent too. Loved the visit through the Mon Village and the information provided by the guide was excellent as we love history and learning about different cultures. The Hotel without electricity was a unique experience that I would not have missed but I had my Kindle fire charged up, my mp3 charged up and downloaded songs and movies to watch. We upgraded the Death Railway train ride and really enjoyed it. Note that there are lots of rides in the long tailed boats on this tour and it is hard to get into and out of them. After two times I was very sore in my legs and knees. I am overweight and 63 years old. If you are in great shape no problems. There is lots of walking uphill and quite a few steps. !

This was a really great activity! We learned a lot and had a great time on the river Kwai. We learned a lot and were able to have some downtime on the jungle rafts while also learning about the Mon tribe. This is a great tour for people wanting to learn more about some of the history of the area.
