- christinehF6907FX00So much fun!!This trip was so much fun! It was great to see how life is different away from Bangkok. The people were so kind and friendly! There was so much to see and a lot of great food as well. My first time trying coconut ice cream and I am in love. Both the floating market and the railway market were exciting to see. This trip was so well organized and our guide was incredible. I will suggest this to anyone visiting Thailand!
- Barbjm700Great day in AyutthayaWe learnt so much about the history and the Thai culture with our amazing guide Dum. She was extremely knowledgeable and answered all our questions. She was extremely kind and a great photographer! Highly recommended.
- ConstanzeGr00Visit impressive temples with a very knowledgeable + nice guideImpressive temples (Grand Palace, Wat Arun and Wat Pho) and Sunday as a very knowledgeable guide who gave a lot of background information on the history and culture. Pleasant mix of guided sightseeing and a little time to walk around on your own. Although I was the only participant, Sunday did the tour for me. Khob khun kha, thank you so much, Sunday. Highly recommend this tour during your visit to Bangkok!

- Joni M00The tour to the two temples was very interesting. The guide, Keng, was excellent as he was knowledgeable and friendly.The temple st the top of mountain is a must see. The hike down from the second temple was not very difficult. We passed a waterfall and the trail was very scenic . I would highly recommend this tour.
- ani92792700Inspiring JourneyIt was amazing that the tour company still operated tour when only myself joining, then it became a chartered tour. The guide ( Surina) n driver (Nu) are very helpful and nice. Surina hiked with me on the whole journey. She had wide knowledge on the National Park and gave me a very inspiring lesson. The scenery is very beautiful and natural. Excitedto see some animals in the trip. Highly recommended !

Mr. Sanam is very nice, he bought us food to give to the monks. He also answer my questions about history of chiang mai, explain about buddha and buddhaism also a funny guy! May god always bless him with happiness and goodness!! Thank you Wandersiam💕

The canal boat tour was really amazing! Our guide was really helpful and had lots of information for us. Baan Silapin is a very interesting place with so much to explore. We had free time to roam around which was amazing. Furthermore we got to go inside a small temple near Baan Silapin and learned a lot about traditions around the temple. The boat tour had so many magical moments like when we first saw the Big Buddha from far away and later on from close sight. I went on the tour starting at 3.30pm so when we came back to the dock in the end I was able to see Wat Arun in beautiful slowly setting sunlight.
The only downside was the bad air and therefore gray sky but that's in no way the fault of the organizer. Just as a small tip for future participants to go on the tour in a season with clearer air so the views will be even more amazing! I will definitely come back to participate in the boat tour again when the sky is clear!

We had a small group of 3 of us on this tour. It was great because it's not a crowded tour and the guide is so friendly and professional. Unlike many other tours where you feel like you've been corralled into a tourist trap, this experience is quite the opposite. We felt like we had personal space and enough time to explore the places we visited. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to explore Bangkok without the hassle of the hard-sell markets.

This tour was the perfect length, 2 hours exploring the canals and sites of Bangkok. It offered a unique perspective of the city and stopped at a wonderful market where you could purchase gifts, beverages and more. Our tour guide Tack was very knowledgeable, friendly, took pictures and sent them to us afterwards. Highly recommend!

This tour was incredible. Our guide, Serena, was so knowledgeable and an exceptional story teller, sharing about the history of Thailand and the significance of the sites we visited. The Big Buddha is stunning and the boat driver stopped to ensure we got a brilliant view and photos. We were lucky enough to visit in the afternoon (330pm tour) and listened to the monks singing in the temples. Thank you Serena, you made our trip to Bangkok really special x

The guide picked us up on time and gave us a little instruction on how to get on the longboat safely, we also had safety vests. The ride was lovely with the view but also very informative. We did a stop at the artist area, saw lizards and had a small crash course in Thai culture and symbolics. It was never boring and our Guide Tak did great :) would recommend for a short stay in Bangkok, just to get an overall feeling of this amazing city.

Elefin Coffee was easy to find, look out for a striking yellow shophouse. Our guide, Mr. Joyce, was knowledgeable, patient, attentive and speaks good English. He took care of our group very well and even offered wet tissues to our kids on the boat when he noticed that they were perspiring. He paced the trip perfectly that everyone was able to catch up comfortably and was constantly engaging with the guests. Highly recommended activity that allows you to take a glance at the lives of the people by the rverside. Visit to the temple was an eye-opener too! Thanks for the wonderful experience for our family, Mr. Joyce!

Bangkok is centered around waterways and this is a lovely way to see them. Our guide didn't offer much commentary when we were on the water but was helpful on land, especially when we stopped at a small community full of people doing crafts and art, and a nice temple we were able to go in to. Doing this during the Thai new year water festival was particularly fun!

The longtail boat Bangkok canal tour was really enjoyable and a cool way to sightsee on a hot day. The tour leader was lovely and was an excellent communicator and organiser, also providing a lot of information about the history and current life on the canals and surrounds. After a dash across the main river in our attractive longtailboat, with our tour of 8 participants having plenty of room, we entered the canal system and saw another side of Bangkok being calm and quiet, as well as full of history. The break at the Artists House was fine and good to have some land time as well as the walk to a shrine after that, before back on the boat to pass the big Buddha statue, which is a great sight from the boat, then turn around to make our return trip to our starting point . I highly recommend this tour when visiting Bangkok.

It was a fun ride on a longtail boat, up the old canals in Bangkok. The guide was friendly and informative. The booking process was easy.
As part of the tour, we had a 15 minute stop at an artist's house. I would have preferred a stop at a different location. We enjoyed the longboat experience. (Also helpful for us was when requested, the guide rang and spoke with our taxi driver on our way to the original meeting point, after he got lost and was being difficult). Thanks

Very informative & enjoyable tour we had with tack!
Even tho I wasn't able to find the meeting point at first, tack and his colleague were eager to contact me (thanks to thai-sim) directly to help me find them and join the tour.
Seeing this huge metropolitan city from river is an MUST-SEE imho & a perfect start for your vacay if you want to get acclimated to the flows of bangkok.
Very grateful for this experience and want to definitely recommend tack to fully enjoy the trip, but i'm sure everyone of this organisation is very respectful and makes sure you're having your best time as a visitor & customer!
