Accommodating and gracious - Our tour guide Kiri was excellent - kept a good pace but also provided appropriate amount of knowledge. We were late by 1 hour because it was our first day and we did not account for the horrific Bangkok traffic. However, the company was super accommodating and still gave us options to be able to take the tour (a shorter version) and we still greatly enjoyed our morning despite the bump in the road. Thank you so much for an incredible first day!

We loved our tour - We had Johnny as a tour guide and he was amazing and well informed. We got to see all the major ones like the Grand Palace, Wat Pho and Wat Arun. The Grand Palace was the highlight of the trip. We even got to ride on a TukTuk and that’s an experience you have to try! Remeber to bring a fan and umbrella cause the heat and humidity is no joke!

Great fun and well worth it - Very easy to book and was a great walking introduction to Bangkok, nice small group and Kiwi our guide was knowledgeable and really great fun, the tour at nearly 4 hours was not at all difficult considering the heat and humidity, and Kiwi gave us the choice of how to get from one attraction to the next if a bit of a distance, such as by boat for the longer parts or, as our group chose a tuc tuc ride which was wonderful, well worth it and great fun
