More personal as it was private
This trip was worth it 👌 I liked that it was private so we got to learn a lot more and we were not rushed as we took our time. A big shout out 🙌 to our tour guide Kit as he was so professional but also friendly at the same, the tour started as soon as we left the hotel and that is a plus as he did not only focus on the areas he was supposed to show us. Also big ups to the driver 👏 (forgot her name)...

Enjoyable half day
I’m traveling solo through Bangkok and this was a wonderful way to spend a half day during a hot day and during the songkran madness. Kit was a great guide and had plenty of info to keep me entertained. The flower market was interesting and unique. Of course Wat Pho was special and seeing Wat Arun from the water is very cool but seeing a huge golden Bhudda appear in the sky from the longtail boat was awesome! Great views and a fun little adventure in BKK..

Flexible private tour
This was a very nice half day in Bangkok. We were able to adjust the schedule since we had already seen Wat Arun, so Kit took us to the Golden Mount Temple instead. Beautiful alternative with great views of the City. We then had a walking tour through the flower market and finished with the canal boat tour..

A relaxed half day option
The beauty of this private tour is having the option to go at your own pace, opt to forego a stop or two, and ask questions without affecting others. Kit was flexible with our preferences (we have been to Bangkok before and were familiar with some of the sites already) and we also appreciate our attentive driver who magically appeared whenever we needed him. We also appreciate Kit’s photos from the tour, and him sharing them with us via email. I would imagine this would also be a great kid-friendly tour given the fish feeding and monitor lizard sightings!..

Amazing Private Tour with the Best Guide!
We had an amazing private tour of Wat Arun and the canals in Bangkok. Puk was the best guide we could have asked for – incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about sharing her culture with us. She provided so many fascinating insights that truly enriched our experience. The driver was also fantastic, ensuring a smooth and comfortable journey throughout. This tour is highly recommended for anyone looking for a personalized and authentic Bangkok experience. Thank you, Puk, for making our day so special!.

Wonderful tour
We had wonderful time on our tour. The tour was the perfect mixture of market, temple and canal sights. The guide was kind and knowledgeable, and the length of the tour was perfect for our two children. We loved seeing the giant beautiful Buddha and the Temple of the Dawn, and our children loved feeding the fish in the canals and seeing the large monitor lizards on the banks. Highly recommend this tour for families...
