Despite the rain we had... - Despite the rain we had an amazing trip in the Klongs of Thonburi. This is the perfect way to see another and more authentic part of Bangkok. Our guide Pear did an amazing job of taking us through the past and present of this part of the city and it is definitely an area we want to come back and see more of

Worth doing once in Bangkok - Went on this trip ( on a very hot day) after reading the TA reviews .. was a nice experience- to see the other side of glitzy Bkk - but certainly not the oohs & aahs as suggested by some , but worth doing once in Bkk city - just for a change . Staff & hosts were courteous and well trained..
