Your journey commences with a leisurely and scenic drive through rice paddies and salt fields. En route, visit a farmhouse and watch locals producing sugar from coconut. The tour continues by boat, passing fruit plantations and Thai houses that reveal a more traditional way of life.

Having immersed yourself in the vibrant environment, head back toward Bangkok, stopping at a wood carving factory en route. The tour takes you through some of the most interesting parts of Bangkok, including a stop at the Temple of the Reclining Buddha (Wat Po), the actual name of which is Wat Phra Jetupon, famous as the oldest and largest temple in Bangkok, with its precincts covering 80,000 square meters in all.

This is an all day excursion. We were very tired by the end of the day (even napped in the van during transit a little bit), but it was well worth it as we felt like we got to see so many fascinating sites. Our tour guide was fantastic and our driver took good care of us and always made sure we had a cool van with cold waters.

We felt coerced into changing the itinerary by substituting a temple tour for the railway market which we did not enjoy at all!! Ultimately it was our decision to make, but the guide made us feel like the temple tours should not have been our highlight. He basically said all tourists want to do is visit temples. Whilst I understand he was considering the heat and the fact that my mum was elderly, it did not create the best impression from the onset. Our other tours felt very warm, welcoming and enthusiastic whereas with this one, we received the bare minimum. Very sad, as we ended up visiting those temples with another tour which went above and beyond to accommodate us, especially our request to receive a blessing from monks. If you choose this tour, be firm in sticking with the itinerary. I regret not pushing back. Further, the railway market which was substituted offered us nothing. Other tour groups allowed participants to go on the train. Again, we received the bare minimum of standing in a hot market with unpleasant smells just to record the train passing through. It was not worth the itinerary change.

Our guide was prompt and very knowledgeable of the touring area. She was very accommodating to our needs and made very comfortable entire tour. This trip is a must if you are visiting Bangkok and visit other area too but limited times. We only had two days in Bangkok, and this option made the us at ease of touring Bangkok.

We had a fabulous time with Kat, our guide. We were picked up at our hotel and driven in a comfortable van to the floating market. Kat gave us several options for the day which allowed us to see a few places that were not even listed in our tour, like the trian market. She bought us authentic Thai treats along the way, like coconut pancakes and Mongo with sticky rice. We loved the temples and the great information as we went. I highly recommend this tour and the beautiful guide, Kat.

It was a lot more exciting than we first thought. Great time getting to see a little of everything in Thailand. Day went by fast.
