点评:I went on a 3-day tour with this company, and it was without question the most dangerous and distressing travel experience I’ve ever had.
On Day 1, we were sent out on a small, unequipped boat during a thunderstorm, despite the obvious risk. There were no life jackets on board, and the boat was not suited to handle the severe weather. The river was rough, rain was pouring, lightning was striking nearby — and we genuinely feared for our lives. Every single item we brought with us was soaked, including clothes and electronics, on the very first day of the trip.
When we arrived at the Homestay, things only got worse. It was extremely unsanitary and not fit for guests — no shower, a hole in the ground as a toilet, and not even basic cleanliness. This is by far the worst accommodation I’ve ever encountered.
On Day 2, we decided to cut the trip short out of fear for our safety and returned to the tour office. When we tried to request a refund for the unused portion of the trip, we were met with aggression and denial by Mr. Mang, the owner. He shouted, laughed in our faces, and refused to take any responsibility for sending us out in unsafe conditions. What shocked me most was that he only listened to the men in our group — refusing to acknowledge or respect anything the women said, displaying clear misogynistic behavior.
The only positive was our tour guide, Pai, who was kind, attentive, and did his best to look after us despite the poor conditions and lack of support from the company.

第一天,我们被安排乘坐一艘在雷雨天气中毫无装备的小船,尽管这显然存在风险。船上没有救生衣,而且这艘船根本不适合应对恶劣的天气。河水汹涌,大雨倾盆,附近闪电频频——我们真的担心自己的生命安全。旅行第一天,我们带的每一件东西,包括衣服和电子产品,都湿透了。
当我们到达寄宿家庭时,情况变得更糟了。那里极其不卫生,根本不适合住宿——没有淋浴,地上挖了一个洞当厕所,连基本的清洁都没有。这是我迄今为止遇到的最差的住宿。
第二天,出于对自身安全的担忧,我们决定缩短行程,返回旅行社。当我们试图申请退还未使用的行程费用时,却遭到了老板芒先生的粗暴拒绝。他对我们大喊大叫,当着我们的面嘲笑我们,并且拒绝承担在危险条件下让我们出行的任何责任。最让我震惊的是,他只听我们团里男士的,拒绝承认或尊重女士们的任何意见,表现出明显的厌女行为。
唯一的优点是我们的导游Pai,他很友善、细心,尽管条件很差,而且公司也缺乏支持,但他还是尽力照顾我们。
