An amazing way to see the sights of Bangkok - a must do
The trip was amazing and we had a fabulous guide Aye Wonghong. She looked after us all day, told us so much information - by the end of the day she was a friend. The trip does so much - all the Buddha's - the Grand Palace - the flower market - boat ride - fab lunch in a great place and it went on and on. We cannot recommend this highly enough. It was our first ever trip to Bangkok and our first day and so glad we chose to do this trip. We started at 9am and were back at the hotel at 3.30pm but it was well worth it. An amazing private trip.
