our guide was Wantana, she was very fluent in English and Mandarin. the coach bus is big and comfortable. we get to see many beautiful temples. our guide will share the story/history of each place. it was raining heavily in late afternoon and glad that the bus catered umbrellas for our use, but we still get soaked 😅.

It was a great tour! I was the only Filipino in a group of Japanese tourists, but our tour guide, Jenny, made sure that I never felt left out. She was very informative, friendly, and pleasant throughout the tour. I truly enjoyed the experience and will definitely book more temple tours in the future. Khop khun kha! 🇹🇭❤️

Glad we took this tour at the very last minute. It was worth it as we got to see the big Buddha at Wat Paknam up close. It was also interesting to ride in a longtail boat exploring the hidden canals of BKK.

We participated in a Chao Phraya River longtail boat tour. By chance, we were the only ones on the tour, so our English-speaking tour guide, Jackie, used a Japanese translation app to give us detailed explanations of Wat Paknam and Wat Arun. She also taught us how to pray and showed us the best photo spots, making it a very fulfilling tour. Jackie was incredibly kind to our child, buying us water during the tour and letting our child experience feeding the fish. The longtail boat journey offered a glimpse into riverside life in Bangkok, and we even saw several monitor lizards, which thrilled our child.

A super fun experience to see old bangkok! we got to visit different temples, markets, and had a nice little ride on the canal. Morty was a fun guide who gave us nice pictures and a lot of information about the places we visited. will definitely recommend this to anyone who likes to ride bikes and discover the local sceneries of Bangkok

The location is very convenient. You can find it by getting off at Chit Lom and walking along the skywalk. Since we booked for 3 PM this time, we were able to shop at Central World first and then walk over. After eating, we also visited the Erawan Shrine right next door. The hotel is right next to it, and the environment is very comfortable. It's a great place to sit down and chat quietly. The entire tea set includes both savory and sweet items, a authentic Thai afternoon tea. The flavors are good, and the presentation is exquisite. Drinks are also included; we chose the cold jasmine tea, which also comes with free refills.

My Sunday was bursting with happiness! I went to Nama for a Japanese buffet, and it was pure bliss for my taste buds. From the appetizers, sashimi, and hot dishes to the desserts, there wasn't a single item that disappointed-everything was incredibly delicious! By the end of the meal, I was so full I couldn't even move. Out of nowhere, a super friendly staff member thoughtfully brought over four different desserts for us! There was super rich ice cream, a matcha cake, and some delicate Japanese sweet treats... that gesture was so sweet and such a huge plus! Big thanks to Nama for giving me such a perfect Sunday. This place is officially on my must-revisit treasure list!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 Unfortunately, we didn’t get to experience the Red Sky rooftop because it started raining. However, the staff handled the situation exceptionally well by offering us seats at Uno Mas while still allowing us to enjoy the food and drinks from Red Sky. The service was outstanding, and the team made sure our evening was just as enjoyable despite the weather. The food and cocktails were excellent, and we never felt like we missed out. Their flexibility and hospitality truly made a difference. Rain or shine, it was still a wonderful experience. I’ll definitely be back to experience the rooftop on a sunny day!
