★★★★★Tripadvisor review
Worth it
F8389DOdanab, October 2026
The temples and Karen village are definitely worth seeing and this price with a small group is recommended . Our hotel was not on the list so we had to find one close and walk to, which wasn’t bad. All of us (6 total in a van) got dropped off at the airport, which seemed odd, being that we all got picked up from the Center. Our guide, Art, was very nice and knowledgeable. However, personally, I had a hard time understanding him. I get that the Karen village is optional, but wished we had more than 20 minutes to support their community. All in all, great experience!
Response from the operator · Operations T
We're glad you found the temples and Karen village worth seeing and appreciated Art's kindness and knowledge. Thank you for sharing that you had difficulty understanding him and wished for more than 20 minutes at the Karen village.

The temples on the tour...
MikeDietz, September 2026
The temples on the tour were wonderful. The only downside to the tour was six hours in a van that had little to nobody suspension. The van was in very bad shape and if you have any kind of back issues do not take this tour
Response from the operator · Operations T
Thanks, Mike, for the kind words about the temples — such a beautiful sightseeing experience. We noticed the van’s suspension was a concern and truly regret that it affected your comfort. We’ve shared this feedback with our fleet team to improve ride quality for future guests.
