The Atv ride was quite difficult than I thought but the guide was very patient to help me and taught me very well. I was glad that I was able to ride this. it was really fun riding this transport on our own at the white sandy beach was really awesome along with a nice view of the place. Truly worth-participating in this activity the price was cheaper booking online and easy to use with the voucher thank you Thrillophilia.

Shnongpdeng is a famous place for both locals and tourists the day we took this camping the camp was full there are some locals, people, too and they were friendly during the bonfire session they shared with us the history and culture of the place which was very interesting. The camp was nice and clean with good facilities, they served with organic foods. Both camping and kayaking went great as we expected, a nice experience and met new friends too.
