The tour guide was humorous and enthusiastic. She tried to explain the different types of local fruits and how they were used in daily life. We also got to see a koi pond and chickens raised in a kampung setting. The bee rearing section was off limits but tasting of honey products was allowed with discounts for tour participants. Overall it was a decent experience for kids who are used to urban living.
