Not Worth the Price Tag
We were not very pleased with our tour guides English speaking skills. We often asked questions that he was unable to answer. Spent longer than necessary at temples and Grand Palace without much guidance as to what we were seeing. Driver and guide had difficult time coordinating pick up spots between visit stops so we had to wait 5-10 minutes between stops. We ended up looking up information on our phone about what we were seeing. He also asked to use our cellular hot spot to purchase tickets, which seemed disorganized. Overall, not worth the price tag of the tour. The sites are definitely must sees in Bangkok but if I could do it again I would choose another tour or look up self-guided tours and either Grab or use TukTuk between sites..

Excellent Half Day Bangkok City Tour – Perfect for Solo Travelers!
I recently took the Half Day Bangkok City Tour and was thoroughly impressed with how well it was planned. All the major landmarks were covered seamlessly, and the pace of the tour was relaxed, allowing ample time to take in the sights without feeling rushed. A special shout-out to our tour guide, Mr. Kit, who made the experience truly memorable. He explained the history and significance of each location in a clear and engaging manner. Thoughtful and attentive, he even brought an umbrella to ensure we stayed comfortable in the Bangkok sun and allowed plenty of time to relax and soak in the atmosphere. What really stood out was how Mr. Kit went the extra mile—he doubled up as a fantastic photographer, helping capture some great solo shots that I’ll cherish. His warmth and professionalism made the tour feel personal and enjoyable. As a solo traveler, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to explore Bangkok with ease and insight. Thank you, Mr. Kit, for a wonderful day!.

Discovering Bangkok with La La: A Memorable Tour
Bangkok's rich history came alive during our tour led by the exceptional guide La La. Visiting iconic sites like the Grand Palace, Temple of the Emerald Buddha, and Temple of Dawn, we were treated to a perfect blend of historical insights and cultural depth. La La's guiding style was spot on – informative without being overwhelming. She knew exactly how to share just the right amount of information, and when our group asked questions, she seamlessly provided fascinating additional details. A delightful surprise came at Wat Phra Chetuphon, where we encountered numerous visitors dressed in stunning traditional Thai costumes. The temple grounds became an impromptu photoshoot paradise, with people elegantly adorned in vibrant, intricate traditional dresses. These beautiful outfits – ranging from delicate silk to elaborate court costumes – created a mesmerizing visual spectacle against the temple's historic backdrop. The Amulet Market and other stops offered unique glimpses into local culture with the option to take home a memento of Thailand. For anyone wanting to explore Bangkok's cultural heart, this tour is a must-do. ★★★★★ Highly recommended!.

Good private tour
We saw everything we wanted to in a hassle free way with our lovely guide Kit and Kate the driver. The tour was adapted to our requirements. Lovely clean car , collected us from the Anantara and deposited us back at the end. We saw the Grand Palace, the Emerald and reclining Buddha, a trip down the canals and a visit to the temple..

Kate and the driver were both fantastic.
Kate my guide was lovely. After the heat & humidity of an hour or so at the Grand Palace I was not feeling well. In fact Kate was terrific getting the assistance I needed. The driver was also right by the exit to collect us. Thankfully I recovered however I elected to go back to my hotel rather than continue in the heat. They couldn’t have been more helpful which was greatly appreciated. Thanks once again.

Lovely tour of the temples!
Very knowledgeable tour guide, very beautiful temples! Had a great time on this tour! Just wished the tour guide had been mindful of traffic at the end of the day. Ended up getting back to the hotel an hour late cause we hit terrible traffic. Tour should end at 4:30 to allow for some drive time back to the hotel.
