We arrived at the meeting place almost 20 minutes late because we went into the wrong tunnel. We were grateful to our Klook guide, Tom, for being patient, as well as to the other tourists in the group. Overall, the tour was great and we gained interesting stories from the guide, who was very accommodating and brilliant. Highly recommended for first-timers in Bangkok.

Buying a one-day ticket at klook is convenient and saves money, and now klook’s service counter has been moved to the entry level on the 2nd floor, which is much more convenient!

The best tea - time experience while touring around Bangkok. Thai desserts are so delicious. We enjoyed sipping tea and eating while sightseeing Bangkok's beautiful spots and historical structures. Thai Food Tour Bus staff are polite, hospitable and very accommodating. I love the tour guide too.

We enjoyed our time at the Meridian. All of the staff were wonderful and efficient. Our table was on the bottom floor in the middle, close to the start of the buffet, and we had the window seats which made it great. The only complaint that I have is the A/C does not reach our area. My family and I were hot and using our portable fan to keep cool. Overall, we came to celebrate my sister's birthday. The birthday cake was delicious and the awesome service met our expectations. We had a blast and the music was great at the last hour. It kind of sucked to leave once the party just started.
