Unforgettable Night Tour – Culture, Food & Fun!

5.00The Bangkok by Night: Temples, Markets, and Food Tuk-Tuk Tour was absolutely fantastic! The company is so well organized and truly delivers 5-star service from start to finish. Our guide (I feel bad I forgot his name!) was hilarious and shared so much fascinating information about Thai culture, Buddha, food, and history throughout the evening. We were met at the train station and each given a private tuk-tuk to travel between locations. The drivers were wonderful and even sang the full name of Bangkok to us, which was such a fun memory! When the skies opened up and it poured rain, they were completely prepared with plastic sides, rain covers, and umbrellas, so the tour continued without a hitch. We explored two lively markets, sampled more snacks and treats than we could possibly finish, and enjoyed dinner at the famous Pad Thai restaurant—a highlight in itself. Visited the flower market and the fabulous China Town for Mango Sticky Rice. On top of that, we loved meeting the other travelers in our group, which made the evening even more special. To top it off, after the tour our driver kindly offered to take us all the way back to our hotel, which was over a 30-minute drive—such amazing service! If you want an unforgettable night in Bangkok filled with culture, history, food, and fun, this tour is an absolute must!

5.00This tour is the best. We saw heaps but weren’t rushed. Our guide Sasa was exceptional giving us clear information and explanations. She was super energetic and lots of fun. The tuk tuk drivers certainly ensure we were comfortable and were very attentive. Seeing the different temples at night time as they glimmered and were bathed in lights was very special. The food at the market and at dinner was delicious. I would highly recommend.

5.00The meeting point was perfect because the day I joined a small group, it started to pour down , and the tour guide sasa was very prepared. Sasa made the tour fantastic, very knowledgeable about the locations your going to visit and the food your going to eat. When touring what they found in the marble budda, there were 2 very distinct buddas that had glasses, when I asked she gave the background as to why. Also Sasa will take photos from you at each location and riding in the tuktuks were fun as well. Would definitely recommend.

5.00Great food. Guide takes you through a local market and let's you sample several different foods. Wonderful temple where we were able to go inside a stupa and see the construction and our family was the only ones there. Great Pad Thai was the highlight not to mention zipping around the city streets on tuk tuks. Ms Kung was a wonderful guide and answered all our questions.
