Default Kanchanaburi - Tour Hellfire Pass & Tiger Temple

Hi Kathy,

We utilised Good Times Travel, a local Kanchanaburi Tour operator (2nd time we've done this).

Thei were 9 of us on the tour (picked up from the Pathumwan Princess Hotel) - the cost for a/c transport, english speaking guide and driver (War Cemetery, Hellfire Pass and Tiger Temple incl admission) - lunch included was 1500Bht pp. Excellent value and service

btw - we stayed in Kanchanaburi o'nite at the Felix River Kwai Hotel (1850Bht for a riverside room). Good Times Travel picked us up at the designated time for our return to Bangkok (all included in the price)

Hope this helps - have fun!

Leo

Default Kanchanaburi

No problems Kathy,

Good Times Travel can be located at GOOD TIMES travel service - your local tour operator for tours within Kanchanaburi province (Thailand) (our JBR dated 24/5 provided some details of our Kanchanaburi visit)

I dealt thru Khun Chalee at GTT who was very helpful and extremely responsive (2nd time we have used them and cannot fault them)

Have fun - we are envious

Leo
