5.00We went to the Grand Palace and Emerald Buddha Temple, which was awesome! Took a tuk tuk to Wat Arun, we got a delicious lunch at a local spot. Went to Wat Pho and the reclining Buddha. Took another tuk tuk to flowers market and then took a subway to Chinatown. Peter took me around and did a fantastic job… I am a solo traveler and he took good care of me! Highly recommended.
Everything you could possibly expect, and more!

5.00We had a fantastic time with Natty! She was very knowledgeable, kind and professional. She answered all the questions we had, but didn't go full "tour guide" on us. She allowed us to explore and ask our own questions, making the trip our own as opposed to a cookie cutter setting. Our 7-year-old daughter was with us, as well. She was not too keen on the touring of temples in the sun...but Natty spent time with her and was super nice. Sofia loved Natty and was very sad to see her go. Natty left Sofia some trinkets at our hotel which Sofia still has and uses today. On a side note about Thailand, Natty has just become another (very good) example of the kindness of Thai people. Never, in all my years, have I see an entire CULTURE wholly devoted to each other in this way. Definitely want to come back here!
