Boon felt like a local mate showing us around. He knew the history and shared epic stories, making sure we didn't miss out on anything. It was the perfect blend of fun and relaxed for a weekend trip!

Our trip to Kusu Island was absolute perfection, and that is entirely thanks to Boon! From the moment we set off, he was exceptionally warm, welcoming, and friendly, instantly making us feel comfortable. ​What really stood out was his impressive depth of knowledge. Boon brought the rich history, sacred myths, and cultural significance of Kusu Island to life. Beyond being a wealth of information, he was amazingly attentive—constantly checking in on us, ensuring my dad was slowly following us, answering every single question with patience, and keeping a seamless pace. ​You couldn't ask for a better guide to explore Kusu island with. If you get the chance to tour with Boon, grab it! 10/10 experience.

Huge shoutout to Boon for making our Kusu Island trip so memorable. Boon was incredibly knowledgeable and shared a lot on the deep history about the island that we would never have discovered on our own. His friendly and attentive nature made us felt genuinely cared for throughout the entire tour. Thank you Boon for such an awesome experience. Highly recommended to anyone visiting.
