I felt like it was really badly organised. Cham islands itself was absolutely gorgeous and stunning but the actual set up of the tour was not very good. Next time I will just go directly to explore the Cham islands myself without booking an excursion. At one point I asked for water because it was blistering hot and they said later and then never gave me a bottle of water.

Lekker gesmokkeld. wel heel massaal. Gids deed z'n best, maar was gejaagd. Met een fluitje werden we geroepen om door te lopen.
