Go before everyone finds it
A village lunch that wasn't on any itinerary and was the thing we still talk about. The whole thing was organised without ever feeling packaged, and we were never once left wondering what happened next.

Getting to the living root bridge before anybody else was on the path. Not perfect — there were two more people in the group than we'd been told to expect — but it didn't take much away from the rest.

Our permits being sorted before we landed, so we rode on day one instead of queuing. Against that, there were two more people in the group than we'd been told to expect, and for what we paid I'd expect the whole trip to be at the level of its best day.
Camping above the valley on the second night, which none of us expected to be the high point. Not perfect — the hotel on the first night was a clear step below the rest of the trip — but it didn't take much away from the rest.
The drive out to Dawki, where we were on the water by eight and had it almost to ourselves. The whole thing was organised without ever feeling packaged, and we were never once left wondering what happened next.

Swapping the raft for bicycles on day six, which broke up the trip perfectly. Not perfect — the water was too high to run the section we'd booked for, so we did a tamer stretch — but it didn't take much away from the rest.
The walk down to the double-decker root bridge, which our captain paced so we stopped where we wanted rather than where the schedule said. Not perfect — messages before the trip took a day or two to get answered — but it didn't take much away from the rest.
The mechanic who rebuilt a derailleur by torchlight and had us moving by seven. Not perfect — there were two more people in the group than we'd been told to expect — but it didn't take much away from the rest.
