We did a private tour of old Bangkok Khlongs in a small boat (just the 4 of us + guide) and enjoyed it a lot. The guide was a very funny Thai lady who really made an effort to show us around and explain many interesting facts about Bangkok and the Thai culture. We highly recommend this tour and this company - just have a look at their website, you can chat with them on Whatsapp.

This tour was easily one of our best experiences in Bangkok! Our tour guide J-Khing was extremely knowledgeable and such a wonderful person. We were lucky to be the only ones on the tour so we got her all to ourselves. :) The stops were interesting, the places we ate were amazing and we never felt rushed or on a schedule. J-Khing introduced me to butterfly pea tea on this tour, which launched an obsession that continued the rest of the month we were in Thailand! Highly recommend this tour!

This trip was amazing! Our guide (Mr. Champ) picked us up at the meeting point right on time. We rode for quite awhile past a wide variety of old and new homes as well as temples and other structures. Many local waved as we went by. Our first stop was the Orchid farm which was beautiful and our guide was very knowledgeable. Our next stop was the floating market. It was truly amazing, vey authentic and nearly endless options of food to chose from. Our guide was so much fun explaining many of the foods. We sampled quite a few things and Mr. Champ even bought us an order of mango sticky rice and delicious rice noodles with prawns. After eating, we had a few minutes to explore on our own before heading to our next stop where we were able to feed hundreds of big fish with bread Mr. Champ provided for us. It was so crazy! Our final stop was the Artist's house which is a place where young locals learn traditional Thai arts. We got to see their work and had the opportunity to shop and purchase items created there. We were able to go right by the absolutely huge new Buddha statue that we had seen earlier in the day from miles away. Our boat driver was very skilled. We were impressed. If you take this trip, you will not be disappointed. You are seeing Thai life away from tourist. Very authentic!

The 1st thing our guide told us was that we would probably finish the tour early today. Not what you want to hear when you have paid a lot for the trip. The guide also tried to persuade us that it would be easier for us to get leave the tour early rather than getting back on the boat to return to the starting point. No choice for lunch and the soft drinks included amounted to one water or coke each with lunch. Again little choice offered. We felt pressured into buying soft drinks at the orchid farm, which I suppose is as ok seeing that we obviously weren’t in a position to buy orchids. Saying all that, the canals are very nice and well worth seeing. I think with either better customer service or lower price (and therefore lower expectations) we might have been happier. I was embarrassed when asking my friends for their share of the trip cost as they were shocked at what we’d got for the money.

We loved our trip! The company representative was in constant contact with me to make sure I wasn't lost, and when we arrived early she asked the boat driver to meet us early so we could get started. I've been to BKK 6 times before but never seen the canals this way, we just loved it. We had two young kids with us and they had an awesome time. The driver was great at pointing out wildlife including water monitors, and stopped for ice cream when we asked him to. Highly recommend!

This was a really fantastic canal boat tour in the outskirts of Bangkok. The company were very accommodating as we booked very last minute. They had a mix up with the timing of the boat arrival, but they compensated with an extra 30min of the tour free (thankfully we were not in any rush) which we were totally happy with.
Our guide, Khun Nui, was just spectacular. Her English was as if she was native speaking and she was very knowledgable, humorous, friendly, and knew so many great things about the various places we visited. It was a great way to learn more about the city and its history and get some insights you wouldn't normally find out from a guide book. It was just my Mum and I and the two of us really enjoyed ourselves. Would absolutely recommend this tour and Khun Sui if you can get her!

Hi natashap286,
Thank you for this excellent review. We loved it when our guests have had a fantastic time on the canals of Thonburi. Thank you again for helping us to be more popular, so we can service more happy guests. Khun Nui will be so happy to see this review as well.
Our guides are a great company and can help orient yourself around Bangkok and the whole of Thailand, just ask them any question and have clear up any thing that you are not sure of when traveling in Thailand
Please come back again with your friends, and relative when they are happen to be in Bangkok.

This is a truly amazing tour that everyone should take when in Bangkok. For me this was actually the second time I took this tour this year but I enjoyed the second time as much as I did the first time. Frankly, most of these tours can be rather disappointing with you shepherded around with a few information blandly recited to you here and there. This is very much not the case here. This is a fun, insightful and involving tour from the beginning to the end. Our guide Nui is a true character and while she will give you important information about what you see it is really just a starting point for giving you deep information about Thailand and the Thai people and also about Buddhism, and sometimes even life in general. For me the biggest thing is how you are feel connected to what you see and whoever you interact with (there are plenty of this) so you are getting past of the dreaded position of being "just a tourist" surveying your environment from a distance (if not physically then in mind). It's really an involving and flow type tour that I highly recommend to all!

This tour showed us another side of Bangkok. Our tour guide Kae was excellent. So knowledgeable about the history of the area and the canals. We did the 3 hour sunset tour and were given delicious snacks along the way, including homemade cookies by our guide. A highlight of our time in the city.

Hello Y2378Klannam,
Thank you so much for your excellent review for us here. We are so lucky to have Khun Kae work with us. She is the most Knowledgeable person about the history and the local Bangkok legend. She also know where to get the best snacks along the canals, even making the best cookies herself:)
Thank you for taking our canal tour in Thonburi and the Westside of Bangkok. Please tell your family and friends to come with us again when they have the chance to be in Bangkok.

On see this as traveler’s choose award for 2023 I felt that we were going to enjoy ourselves and we certainly did. Our English speaking tour guide Nune was fantastic and made our day even more enjoyable and the experience a memorable one. We visited the Bog Buddha orchid farm and artists house while journeying around the waterways. Full 3 hour journey but was amazing. We could do this again easily as you see many different things on each trip.
Ann was easy to book and pay for trip through. She was very helpful and provided pictures and directions on where to meet guide. As we used BTS was easy to get to starting point. Don’t pass this one up as it was fantastic

My boyfriend and I did a 3-hr sunset tour in February on our last day in Bangkok – it was definitely a great way to end our time in the city and felt like a unique experience. We had anticipated being in a group, but it ended up being just us on the tour with our tour guide, Kae, and the boat driver so it felt like our own private tour which was really nice! We visited an orchid farm, temple and museum. Kae was so knowledgeable about everything and able to answer every question we had. She also shared snacks and drinks with us and took photos for us. The boat ride was also super interesting to see how some locals live on the water, so it felt very authentic to Thailand. I highly recommend if you're looking for something different to do and want to support a local business!

Hi Emily H,
Thank you for taking your time to write this great review for us! It has been a long time since we were able to service our guests due to the lock down in Bangkok. Now things are slow returning to normal and we would. love to start operating our boat tour again. Keep in mind that all of our tours can be done in private group so less chance of coming into contact with other. So you would still be keep the social distancing while enjoying a cruise with us.
Thank you again for taking our tour back in February, and we hope to see you and your boyfriend again soon.

As far as I know, generally, the tour operators are not connected directly to Trip Advisor.
The tour company name is Pandan Tour. If you Google "Small Teak Boat Canal Adventure Tour"+ Pandan, you should get their website. TA will not let me or anyone else post a URL or their gmail address in a response.
