Miller was an excellent, informative guide who gave the most spectacular guided tour. We got to see all of the beautiful rice terraces, the waterfall and I even got to try my hand at traditional rice processing down in the Batad village surrounded by the rice terraces. Miller was not only knowledgeable, but also has a family lineage working the rice terraces. It was incredible watching his skill with the rice making and to hear the history he had to share of the terraces and the Filipino life style. His English was excellent and he was friendly and curious about my culture. Very personable. I shared with him that I had my motorcycle license and he allowed me to try riding his motorcycle side car in a safe section of the road. It was thrilling. I was even given the opportunity to meet his mother and father who used to work the rice terraces in their youth, and was able to purchase the freshest most delicious turmeric tea that his mother processes and sells in the local markets. Miller allowed plenty of time for me to enjoy my one day tour, and even encouraged me to slow down and appreciate the surroundings. When I had to wait for my bus after the tour, he waited with me to make sure I boarded safely. This is the best tour I have ever experienced. The perfect combination of adventure, history and thrill. Highly recommend this tour with Miller Himmoldang. Maraming Salamat Po!
