Brill... One not to miss. - Really nice easy tour with very good life jackets and great chatty guide. Would recommend and way cheaper than buying direct.

Great way to experience Bangkok and get out of the city congestion - We had such a wonderful time in seeing Bangkok through a teak boat experience. Our guide was awesome, humorous, educational and engaging. I’m not entirely sure that we were on the correct trip, as we did not stop and get off at two temples but it was quite pleasant regardless. We showed our (very recent) booking to the crew and it was a 2:30pm departure so they added us onto the printed list. They provided life jackets and water. The teak boat was covered on top and the breeze felt great on a hot day. Easy location, at River City Bangkok which had some shops, restaurants and art to explore before we got on the boat.

The tour of the Royal Barges was really brought to life as the guide had once been a rower in the Royal Barge procession. The temple was even more interesting as a service was taking place.</p>

ok for an afternoon - nice view from the river during daylight. The boat engine is a bit noisy, beware if you sit in the back of the boat, and the sound system of the guide is not top. besides that, it is fun to have a different view of the buildings.

Scam alert. I would be doing my... - <p>Scam alert. I would be doing my fellow travellers a disservice if I did not inform you of our disappointment in this experience for which we paid USD 60 each!</p> <p>Between 8am and 9am we had to make several phone calls to advise this company that there was no representative waiting to meet our party. The long-tail boat ride was a slow journey through just one klong, with nothing much of interest to recommend it. We were then taken to a Temple which - being under renovation, we decided it was not worth the difficulty in getting out of the long-tail boat in rough water conditions to view. We then proceeded to the Royal Barge Museum. We wandered around ourselves as there was very little commentary from the guide. At no time was water or any other refreshment offered to us.</p> <p>The whole tour was one and a half hours shorter than expected. Despite complaints the only recompense offered was a free airport transfer to Don Muang. </p> <p>Avoid!</p>
