The trip was ideal for the number of hours we were in port on a cruise. We were met at the pier with our name clearly visible and were quickly allocated a car and a driver. We were taken around the main local temples, tea tasting etc before a long journey out to the tea plantation. Time there was limited to a few minutes as there is not a lot to see but beware the need to tip the tea pickers if there are photos taken! The tea factory was an eye opener in terms of working conditions but all the staff were happy - or seemed so. We were brought back to the ship in plenty of time with the driver providing plenty of background about his country.
