Had an amazing dinner cruise. A bit many people tho but all in all I’ve enjoyed it. Food was amazing and service was fast and very approachable. Just sad they have to move me to a different table because the table I was sitting on was good for 2 adults ;((.

I had a very positive experience using this proxy service for my personal prayer at the Erawan Shrine. The team was kind and responsive and carried out the service on the requested date. I especially appreciated receiving photos and a video showing my personalized offerings and prayer being presented at the shrine. Since I could not be there in person, this service was very meaningful to me. Thank you to the team for handling my request with care and respect. 🙏

We hadn't originally planned to visit this aquarium, but when my daughter saw it while we were shopping at Siam Paragon, she immediately said she wanted to go. It was quick and easy to buy tickets on Klook, and then we were able to go right in. I initially didn't have high expectations for an aquarium inside a department store, but after our visit, everyone in our family was incredibly impressed. We were all amazed by this aquarium; not only did it have many fish we hadn't seen in other large aquariums, but it also had the most sharks I've ever seen. The overall variety was excellent, and the design was fantastic. We loved it so much that we even bought photos, which turned out great. It ended up being our favorite unplanned stop on our trip to Thailand!

We had a wonderful Chao Phraya Sunset Dinner Cruise experience! The views along the river were absolutely beautiful, especially during sunset. The atmosphere was relaxing, the live entertainment was enjoyable, and the staff were friendly and attentive. The food was good, with a nice variety of dishes. The only thing we noticed was that there was no sashimi. We're not sure if it was unavailable that day or if it's only served during the evening dinner cruise. Overall, it was still a memorable experience and definitely worth trying. Highly recommended!

I immediately scheduled another appointment for the day after tomorrow. Facilities: Standard. Masseuse: 34/19/28/30, highly recommended, great technique, hit all the right spots. Service: Good.

The last time I trained Muay Thai was almost 10 years ago. The trainers were able to catch me up, although I have to train more to get the groove again. Overall experience was great. The trainers can speak a little bit of English and they were very accommodating. I will definitely recommend this to my friends.
