Here's hoping I'm not hugely misguided in rejecting this kind offer.
Also booked the car parking at Heathrow. A great price of £76 for 23 nights parking with a meet and greet on arrival and departure. Makes it easier to get there and away. Skypark have some good prices with a summer code.
*** Queried the price with the guide, Joy, and he has replied that he will do the 2 days on tour for only 3000 baht if we pay for all our entries and lunch. Now I'm not sure but I think we'll be going some to spend £250 on entrances and food unless he is taking us to Alton Towers and Madame Tussauds! Booked up for the 28th and 29th July now. He has sent me the names of the zip lining place and the elephant sanctuary so I can research entrance fees. Still not sure about going to see the Karan 'long neck' tribe, seems a little weird to go and stare at people like a human zoo.
Well for now we are all booked and sorted as far as we can be. Just need to get the sun cream and mozzie spray and we are set for the off. Packing to begin next week once we have washed all the snorkels and masks in Milton. Less than 4 weeks to go and the excitement is growing.
