The Tuk Tuk ride/driver...

3.00The Tuk Tuk ride/driver was very helpful and lovely. It was raining so missed out on some of the tour. It all seemed very rushed. One of the party was vegetarian and has a coconut allergy and the guide had to be reminded of this several times. Also was taken back to wrong hotel at the end (was then taken to the right one) Don’t think the weather helped. The flower market was amazing but felt we didn’t get time to look at the amazing displays it was rush rush rush. Maybe on a different day it may have been different.

5.00Our host Jazz is funny, highly knowledgeable and a bit of a rock star. The only skill he lacks is weather forecasting, as the rain that he promised would stop in 10 minutes never really went away. Never mind though, as his highly entertaining tour is fabulous and offers delicious highlights, come rain or shine. A terrific way to see the great parts of this amazing city. Kudos too to Expique for smoothly transitioning us to a later group when crazy Friday pm traffic saw us miss our original start time.
Amazing night around Bangkok

5.00We had an incredible time with Kung. She brought a fun and relaxed vibe to the evening, while also being detailed and informative. We visited a variety of locations that shared insight into Bangkok's unique history and culture. The food spots that Kung brought us to were also delicious, and taking in this marvelous city from the tuk tuk is a treat. Would highly recommend!
Fabulous night

5.00Kung was a phenomenal tour guide. She was informative and chatty. All the spots she brought us to were wonderful. The food we ate was absolutely delicious. Kung was easy to talk to, very kind and funny. We had an amazing evening exploring Bangkok with her. Our tuktuk driver was also very lovely but we never got his name! Thank you both so much for a lovely evening xx

5.00It’s long and a lot of walking as well. But it’s cool to get authentic Thai experience! I would love to go again or see if there’s any other areas they tour.
Must do in Bangkok

5.00The tour was an absolute highlight of our trip and Sasa, our guide for the night was absolutely fabulous! We tried food we definitely would not have found (and maybe not even tried if we did) without this tour. Not only did Sasa have all of the local knowledge to tell us, she also had great recommendations for the rest of our trip.
A real highlight of our trip to Bangkok

5.00We had a fantastic tuk tuk tour of Bangkok with our family – myself, my husband, and our two sons (aged 20 and 22). Our guide, Sa Sa, was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about the city. She shared so much interesting information throughout the tour and made the experience both fun and informative. We saw so much of Bangkok in a short space of time, and it was a wonderful way to experience the city's culture, history, and atmosphere. The highlights for me were definitely the flower market and Chinatown, both of which were vibrant, fascinating, and unlike anything we'd seen before. Another memorable part of the tour was the delicious Pad Thai we enjoyed at a local restaurant – it was absolutely amazing and one of the best meals we had during our stay. We all thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Bangkok. Thank you, Sa Sa, for making our experience so special!
All around great activity

5.00We were stuck in the horrible Bangkok traffic and almost missed the tour. Communication between the outfitter was excellent. Our tuk tuk waited for us and quickly caught up. Our local Sasha was excellent. She certainly knew the area and provided a very fun experience. Dinner was delicious. Definitely recommend!
Perfect Tour!

5.00Great experience!! The perfect activity to do our first night in Bangkok to get acquainted with the city, receive tips on how to spend our time, and see a variety of different sights. We loved the food, the ease of logistics and Jib was an amazing guide.
