I had a wonderful time. My guide, "Apple," was friendly, funny, entertaining, and full of information about our tour. She was able to answer all my questions, and her English was very easy to understand :) The driver navigated the boat very safely. We also saw monitor lizards. My expectations were exceeded. Thank you!

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 😅.

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 very cool way to see some of the major highlights temple wise of bangkok. Boats felt very safe and our guide was very sweet. the big buds lived up to its 52 meters and the artist section was super cute. very time efficient and a great tour that doesn’t eat the hole day away. Do bring water and a fan as it can get very hot and there is no AC during this tour! highly recommend to any kind of traveler!

I booked this tour because I wanted to see the newly repainted Pink Ganesha. You can wait inside the meeting point cafe, but those who aren't buying any drinks are told to sit on chairs near the entrance. Buying a drink got us seated at a better table. Since the Ganesha is far away, and considering the heat and weather, I'm really glad I took a tour. Our guide, Jenny, gave great explanations and had a wonderful smile. We were told there wouldn't be time for a sit-down lunch, so we chose either pork or chicken for a boxed meal to eat in the car and paid for it at the initial check-in. The boxed meal was delicious, and it was nice that they handed out water, too. We got caught in a traffic jam on the way back and were a bit late, so anyone with subsequent plans should be careful. After the tour dispersed, I went shopping at the Big C right nearby before heading home.
Rest stop: There is a restroom break at the destination. Be careful, as the restrooms near the seated Ganesha aren't very good.

We had a smooth and hassle-free experience with the tour agency and thoroughly enjoyed our Bangkok tour. Our driver, Mr. Manat, was very accommodating, kind, and professional. He made our trip even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!
