The tour was incredibly convenient and highly recommended. We booked it with an airport pick-up followed by a full-day tour to Sun World. Traveling around the island within 8 hours was easy, with a clean car and a friendly, professional driver. Everything went smoothly and exceeded expectations.

The pick-up and drop-off was very accurate, and the tour guide's explanation was also very clear. There was enough time to stay at each attraction during the entire trip, but it would be better to stay longer at the water park.

It was a very satisfying trip that I had fun with foreigners through John's tour. Since it was a short trip, it was great to do many things together in one day. I want to book through Klook next time too.

There was a pearl farming base visit during the trip, but it was not compulsory. It felt a bit of a waste of time, but everything else was great.
