Excellent guide and tour - An excellent outing with Puk who shared history and culture as we explored the canals, temples, and flower markets. The canal ride and transportation between events were a terrific way to explore Bangkok and beat the heavy heat this time of year. Highly recommend this tour and guide for solos,couples, and families.

Great half day tour in Bangkok - Amazing tour & guide. Bella our guide took us through Wat Arun & was so knowledge. The long tail boat ride was so cool. Canals you would never know existed. The flower market & other stops were welcomed. Amazed that we lasted 4-1/2 hours with the heat. Ask for Bella if you book….she is great 💕

Perfect half day trip we your own guide and nice view of sights and everyday life in Bangkok. Highly recommend - Perfect way to spend half a day in Bangkok. Pickup at hotel perfect, transport to flower market for a very nice look at local market. Then a wonderful private boat trip on the river with a very nice view of the small river houses. A stop at artist center in a very traditional house, two visits to small temples and finally sailing to Wat Arun temple. Our guide was so kind, considerate and very attentive to details and we got to learn about Thai life and temple traditions. We warmly recommend
