5.00We were lucky enough to be the only people on the tour. So having that private VIP experience was wonderful. Eddie our guide was very knowledgeable and spoke good English. Eddie and his driver took us to a temple, followed by an amazing flower market. Then onto the final temple by ferry crossing. It was a great experience and great way to see parts of Bangkok.
Affordable, accommodating and fun staff, interesting facts came from the tour guide

5.00Ms Nok was a lovely tour guide, very pleasant and spoke good English and accommodated well. We had a wonderful time visiting all the temples in the itinerary and you get ample time learning about them from Ms Nok and photo-taking time for each. The reclining Buddha was stunning and enormous in size! Take note that lunch is not included in this package, only bottled water, so bring cash as Nok the guide suggested a few local places and well worth it!
Awesome tour. Guide explained everything really well and was helpful.

5.00We were picked up at the hotel on time. Ms Nuj was a great guide teaching us about their religion, Buddhism and the different kings that they had. The temples were majestic. I highly suggest you take the morning tour as there were not much tourists so it feels very serene and calm while going through the different temples. We highly appreciate that we were dropped off at our next destination instead of the hotel. Well recommended and prices included all the entrance fees too
