          Terrible tour company and guide for private tour.
          The tour was meant to be 8 hours. It was less than 5. Tour guide didn’t offer any history or information. He just had us driven from place to place. Lunch was included and we assumed because we were in Thailand that it would be a Thai restaurant. He took us to a hole in the wall in China town and spent about $5 for both of us on lunch of which one meal was inedible. We asked if we could go to a Thai market and he said he couldn’t change the schedule at all even though it was an expensive private tour ($415 US). Definitely don’t use Viator or Royal Silk Tours! Sad, because Thai people are so wonderful and this gave us a bad experience.

          Fantastic experience
          This was the perfect tour of Bangkok's many temples and sites, and we would absolutely recommend it for anyone looking for an informative and enjoyable one-day look at the best parts of the city. (I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because our guide was delayed and so we spent the first hour riding around on a long-tail boat, not knowing where we were going or what we were looking at). Once he arrived, the guide was super knowledgeable, engaging and funny. The driver who picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel was absolutely lovely, and his van well-stocked and comfortable. If you are looking for an all-day tour that takes you to some of the most beautiful temples in Bangkok, book this tour!

          Book this tour - could save your relationship with your travel partner! :)
          We were so very happy that we booked this tour. Our guide and driver were incredible! They made it so easy to go from place to place. We learned so much on this tour. We originally thought we could do this on our own and we are so glad that we didn't try. When you go to the temples, you can expedite your day by ensuring you have long pants (recommend linen), your shoulders covered, and shoes that slip on and off quickly. You will take them off to go into sacred places. Don't go to Bangkok without booking this tour!

          Best Private Tour in all of Bangkok
          Bella was an amazing tour guide. She's very thorough, fun and very knowledgeable. It was worth the money because the main tourist attractions in Bangkok are covered.

          Good agenda, underwhelming experience.
          Unfortunately, our tour guide was not at the level we expected for a day tour that cost us US$ 400. We expected the tour guide to illustrate us with the story of Thailand, Bangkok, the temples, etc. we didn’t get that. We had to continuously ask questions to get some guidance of what we were doing or seeing - or pickup things from other tours passing by. We recommend that your guides are specifically prepared and vetoed, as in several cases we heard other tours giving very insightful comments.

          Great Tour w/Krit
          We had an amazing time. Krit was a fantastic tour guide, took lots of photos of us, so calm and easy going. He also let us change direction at any time to try other stuff or look at other things. Very helpful and informative. He was also very funny and down to earth. Very easy to be around. Didn’t make the trip about him or try to sell us on anything which some tour guides do. We started the day by learning how to fold a lotus, we toured the flower and fruit markets, went to the grand palace and many temples. We got to offer the lotus at a temple. We fed fishes in a canal, recommended the best mango smoothie we’ve ever gotten, and did I mention pictures? Tons of pictures! Thank you so much for a fantastic time Krit! Highly recommend.

          Amazing Kie!
          My family recently had the most wonderful 6 day tour of southern Thailand covering Bangkok, Kanchanaburi and Ayutthaya. It was a truly amazing experience, made even better by our wonderful guide Kie. She was extremely experienced, knowledgable and helpful, and always had a big smile on her face! Kie really went above and beyond to ensure that we had a memorable trip. Thanks also to our great driver Top.

          A fantastic day out in Bangkok
          A truly exceptional day out in Bangkok. Our tour guide Miss Aey was very knowledgeable of her city, its long history, their last 10 kings and their wonderful temples, the associated construction, architecture and related symbols and meanings. What made it so interesting was how enthusiastic and passionate she was from start to finish. A lot of walking but plenty of resting opportunities, regular water breaks and a delicious Tai meal. Would strongly recommend

          Amazing tour of Bangkok
          Our guide Bella was very good and gave us a good background overview of each site that we were visiting. She took us around and explained all the historical events of Bangkok.

          Excellent sights and guide..
          Our guide, Eddie is amazing. He took us to these spectacular sights and narrated historical facts, myths and anything in between which I greatly appreciated as a historical and cultural enthusiast, myself. It was an experience to remember by. The tour was everything I hoped for and the locals were very courteous and accommodating. Overall, it was excellent and I have nothing to complain whatsoever. Kudos to Eddie. Salamat. Thank you. Danke schön.

          Wonderful guide
          Our tour guide was knowledgeable, kind, and friendly. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. The driver and tour guide was very professional and we learned so much more than we would have otherwise.
