Very fun and relaxing way to see some of the charming quite little neighborhoods of Bangkok. And Joe was a super guide, thoughtful, professional, and charming in his own right. I highly recommend this tour!

I booked this tour on very short notice of about 2 hours. I went to the meet up place and was greeted by a friendly Thai guide named Joe who was very informative about the areas we went to and the history behind it. He was kind to give us a sample of some mangoes at the Artists village and he also invited us to try hand feeding a huge swarm of catfish which was nice of him. The views from the boat were simply something you wouldn't see if you did a land based tour. It was so interesting to see locals houses right on the canals and explore the Artists Village. Overall I felt it was a great and fun tour and I would highly recommend it!

Well organised. Lots of fun. Ken our tour guide made sure everyone was involved with his information and advice. Kept us all safe at all times on the river. Most of the trip was on the water which provided some respite from the intense heat.

We booked this last minute as it was our last day in Bangkok and extremelyyy hot out. It was nice to be on the water and get a tour where we could relax and sit. I dont feel like we necessarily learned a lot, but it was a cool way to see different parts of the town, venture down little canals, and see homes of local people. We also stopped at an artist village along the canal, which was cute!
