    From River to Roots: A Journey Through Time

    Waking up early never felt this rewarding. The floating market was already bustling, and we tasted fresh pineapple while bobbing gently on the river.

    Then came my favorite part — cycling! Winding through quiet villages, we saw daily life unfold: kids going to school, locals tending to their gardens, and that smell of fresh earth after rain. The cacao farm was a sweet stop (literally), and the ancient ficus tree felt like a living relic of wartime memories.

    Chris was an amazing storyteller — warm, insightful, and patient with our questions. This wasn’t just a tour, it was an immersion.

    Escape From the Tourist Tracks

    Loved how real and untouched everything felt. Floating market? Real vendors. Canals? No tourist boats around. Noodle house? A local woman frying up the best noodle-crust pizza I’ve had.

    The biking route was dreamy — zigzagging through banana groves, chatting with kids, crossing tiny bridges. The cacao farm was a hidden gem, and David’s stories about the VC hiding spots under the ficus tree gave me goosebumps.

    I travel for moments like these. Highly recommended!
