Don’t think twice, book this tour! - Wan is well informed and friendly. She took her time to explain the attractions in the palace and made it fun. Her camera skills? Spectacular! (I was a solo traveler so I asked her to help with the camera)

Amazing time - Fantastic value for money! Our guide Thania was so knowledgeable and taught us so much. She ended up accompanying us to see more temples and we learnt much more than we would have on our own. Thankyou so much for an unforgettable experience.

Thailand Royalty - Beautiful & a must visit when in Bangkok. Very intricate and photo spot. Well organized entry & exit points except that washrooms are only near the exit points and becomes a little inconvenient when with children as it's a long walk.

Oh, bad. It would be better if we were alone, we would not have thrown out money. - We had a guide that we abandoned during the tour. We were five people, being four older people and a young boy. She simply became his individual guide. It moved quickly, did not present us with all the points and at a certain point disappeared. We continued the walk and when we were already on the outside she appeared, offered to enter again. It was terrible, we left to go on the penultimate day, we trusted the agency. And we'll go home without knowing the most beautiful temple. Lamentável!

Good - Guide was very helpful and welcoming but the tour did not include lots more information than if we’d done it ourselves.
