We had a wonderful and interesting tour with our guide Supoj. He introduced us to Thai history, religion, life, and politics, and shared exciting facts and information with us. We were slightly late, but thanks to direct WhatsApp accessibility, that was no problem. The tour with him through Wat Arun and Wat Pho was highly recommended - especially because of the guide - we are very satisfied. Oh: and he is an excellent photographer if you are interested in good photos. A great memory.

We had an absolutely wonderful time during our tour, thanks to our exceptional guide, Sammy. Over the course of approximately three hours, Sammy guided us through the stunning temples of Wat Arun and Wat Pho. His explanations were clear, engaging, and filled with interesting details. It was evident that he had a deep respect and pride for Thailand’s heritage, which made the tour all the more meaningful. Sammy was professional throughout. Beyond his expertise, he was incredibly kind and attentive. We felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout the course of the tour. He has a great eye for photography and knew exactly where to position us for the best shots. In fact, he often took the initiative to suggest photo opportunities and even offered to take pictures of us himself. The photos turned out beautifully, and we’re so grateful to have those memories captured so well. In summary, this tour exceeded our expectations in every way.

The private tour is a bit expensive but the tour guide, Sam Pun, is very knowledgeable and shared so many information. I hope he gets paid a lot especially having to explain information in the Bangkok heat for 3 hours! Sam Pun was simply amazing, he shared so many information and helped us take some photos. The itinerary can be enhanced by including a stop at a cafe near Wat Arun, that’d would be a nice relaxed trip. The additional Thai traditional costume is cheap but the shop staff that did my hair and helped me changed clothes seems to not want to be there with no smiles or no advice given on hair styles or anything like that. The additional photography was expensive as well for 30 minutes session, but the pictures are nice and they gave additional person to direct how to pose and hold our belongings in plastic bag which was much appreciated. Overall, expensive but I hope the company pays all the staff and tour guide accordingly as they worked very hard in the heat. Enjoyable trip!

Num our guide is a detailed n knowledgeable guide. He told us the story behind the Wat Arun n Wat Pho were built n all the beautiful places around. He is punctual n also inform us where to have a real Thai Massage with the traditional skills n places to eat in Bangkok. He also took photos for us. Half day is not enough with him. He is a great guide. His background also made him can inform us all the things about the Wat Arun n Wat Pho, the history n what could do n couldn't do in the temple. Also let us know what the royal temple n public temple n the difference. It is fun n enjoy with him. My family is really happy. Maybe if you got him, he is a good choice.
