“We booked this as a waterfall tour, but unfortunately it rained very heavily that day and it wasn’t safe to visit the original waterfalls. Thankfully, our guide Ariga quickly adjusted the plan and took us to a lovely coffee plantation instead, which was a great experience. He also managed to bring us to a nearby waterfall that was still accessible despite the weather. We really appreciated his flexibility and professionalism. Even with the unexpected rain, he made sure we still had a wonderful day”

Krisna was both personable and knowledgeable, showing genuine interest in making sure we had a good time. He is also a great driver, making the trip smooth and pleasant.
