Traveling with elderly parent, easy itinerary, fuss free pickup from lobby of hotel in the old city area. relaxing 45min boat ride to a family farm, where we get to see some of the fruit and vegetable crops and herbs grown, and also where light lunch, drinks and ice cream are served. The host family is very friendly and warm. The farm visit is followed by a boat ride back to the boarding jetty, before being ferried back to the hotel, or your next destination within the old city. Recommended!

The local tour group sent a confirmation e-mail one day before the trip. The driver and guide arrived early and we were picked up in a 9-seater van. The tour guide was informative. The boat ride took 45 minutes and we had our lunch at Farmer’s House. You can choose Pad Thai or Khao Soi. There are chicken, beef or shrimp options. A bottle of water is also included. An iced drink of lemongrass/lychee and ginger is also in the meal. I requested with warm lemongrass and they were alright with that. The meal ended off with two scoops of ice-cream. You can have the option of travelling back with him to the city or taking your own transport to somewhere else’s after that.
