Great place to go for a spa, very relaxing

The driver will discuss with us how many attractions we want to go to. If we have any ideas, we can put them forward, but we arrange them directly for him. He took me to 4 places, 1 gate and 3 temples. The temples require tickets and need to be paid for at our own expense, but we all I think it's a good deal. The photographer and driver will teach you how to pose, and there will also be funny parts, but some of us don’t quite understand the point of the joke. Overall, it’s great 👍🏼Highly recommended

One week before departure, the discount plan was released. If you don’t add makeup, it would be great to choose this. We chose it for boys, and overall the CP value is very high.

Buying massage rolls on klook is cheaper than onsite. There are many massage shops to choose from. Online booking is also very convenient. Highly recommended!

The staff was very friendly. I had a body salt scrub + essential oil massage for 2 hours. I felt very relaxed after the treatment. The mango sticky rice was delicious ~ but the location was close to the night market and the streets outside were very noisy, which was a bit of a fly in the ointment.

The driver and photographer are very friendly. The photographer will also briefly introduce the scenic spots. You can suggest the spots you want to take pictures, but we all ask the photographer for suggestions.

Makeup skills depend on the makeup artist. You can also ask the store staff for color selection of clothing. They can speak English and some staff can speak Chinese. The overall feeling is very comfortable.
