An unforgettable Tour - An Unforgettable Adventure in Thailand I recently returned from an incredible trip to Thailand, and I can't help but share my amazing experiences in this beautiful country. From stunning landscapes to rich cultural heritage. The tour guide was incredibly He was the High light of the Tour he was awesome. A big help to us all. Explored several iconic landmarks, including the Grand Palace and other site. The intricate architecture and rich history were awe-inspiring. I highly recommend Thailand to anyone looking for a perfect blend of culture, adventure, and relaxation. I can’t wait to return and explore more of this enchanting country!

A 100% honest review from a travel blogger - I booked this with Viator rewards and it cost me $1. I feel I screwed over the company and Surina my guide. Surina contacted me prior to the tour and let me know where to meet her. I got there and it was a big area so I WhatsApp’d her and she replied immediately and found her within 1 min. When it says small group, it was really small group. I was the ONLY ONE (for the most part) with Surina and got one on one attention. To say she was incredible is an understatement. She was SPECTACULAR. I love a question and she answered all of them. Her gratitude toward my generosity with donations in the temples and such was outstanding. At one point I think I saw her shed a tear. Anyway, about an hour into the tour she got a call. Her boss said she left four people behind. She was VISIBLY SHAKE . She kept showing me how her schedule only had 1 person for the 10:00 tour but her 3:00 had 4. Then she saw they booked the tour that morning about an hour before the departure time and did not get the notification and she was so upset. If you see a review how she left people, PLEASE DO NOT DETER YOU AND THINK SHE, or the company, does not care about their guests. We first went to Wat Arun then to Wat Pho. She showed me EVERYTHING POSSIBLE. In between we stopped for the FRESH COCONUT WATER. They chopped open the coconut and it was great. Then scraped the insides to eat the fresh pulp. I also bought some rose apple to snack on. She wanted to pay for it and I wouldn’t let her. She was insistent but I said no. We went to Wat Pho and she took me everywhere and knew all the PERFECT places for photos. Also she wouldn’t even let me carry my own bags at times. She said she would so I had my hands free for photos. I had my own tour guide and it was incredible and she was incredible. While it’s a three hour tour we finished in 2 hours and I think it was because I was solo. I didn’t mind at all. Some would get aggravated they didn’t get “all they paid for” but I did and then some. At the end she took me shopping since we still had time. She showed me good shops and helped me bargain for some awesome souvenirs. She also recommended some awesome restaurants to have a snack. At the end I tipped her and she would not accept my entire tip. I was insistent but she still only took a portion of it. She did so much for me and she should know how much I appreciated her. I would 1000x book this tour again if I knew she would be my guide. I’m trying to convince friends to change our NYE trip from Cambodia to Bangkok again and if I do I’ll reach out to Sarina to give us another tour.

A perfect introduction to Chiang Mai culture and history. - My guide Nana gave a fun and very informative tour of key temples around Chiang Mai, weaving history, Buddhism and Thai culture into a memorable afternoon. I definitely recommend this tour if you are new to Thailand and want to get to know the culture of Thai people. Great value.
