What are people saying about Bangkok

DrDouglas_F, May 2026

Great trip...all the temples were good

We enjoyed the experience. The van was good. The places visited were excellent. The tour guide is very good, she is great at taking pics. We would do this again. I would say it was 4.5 out of 5. The place chosen for lunch was great. I would say it's 4.5 because a few things could be better. The pickup time is too early, we are holidays and 7:45 could be turned into 8:15 easy. We got home before 4:30, extend out for 30 minutes and get home a little later. Water - needs to add more than 1 bottle each. The tour guide is great, but felt a little rushed at certain times.

Perfect way to cover three big attractions

We booked the private tour and had the lovely Ex as our guide. It was more than just a tour of the three locations, he explained so much to us about the history, politics, family life, etc. in Thailand and answered all our random questions. Would 100% recommend this tour, and specifically Ex as your guide if you can!

Royal Palace Bangkok

A wonderful tour, but just a bit of advice wear pants to the royal palace. It’s required for men. You can buy some really cool pants right around the palace if you forget. Our tour guide Pen was amazing and full of knowledge she has been a tour guide since 1990 so she knows her way around this huge city.

Amazing trip to the Floating Market and Maeklong Railway Market with Anna and Leo! Both were fantastic guides—friendly, knowledgeable, and very organized.

Great Day in Bangkok with Oil

It is tailored to your preferences and activity tolerance. I thought it was a perfect introduction to Bangkok with a local. I cannot recommend it enough! Our guide, Oil, gave us a great day. We were able to experience all parts of Bangkok with someone who could give us great insight into the sights we were seeing, as well as customs, norms, and how to do it like a native! She was very knowledgeable about all the sights we saw and very mindful of our physical limitations so we were never rushed or worn out. By the end of the day, it felt like we had a new friend in Bangkok. We just adored her!

Angie was an excellent guide for our day trip to the River Khwae Bridge and Erawan Falls.

The falls were absolutely amazing and a highlight of the trip. Highly recommend!

Living Green Elephant Sanctuary Tour from Bangkok and Pattaya

claire_r, Apr 2026

Great day trip out of Bangkok

The Elephant Santuary was a great experience, I highly recommend this for a day trip out of Bangkok. Our host/guide for the day was absolutely lovely and very knowledgeable. I wish I could remember his name but it's been a few weeks since the day. Everyone should feed an elephant at some point in their life and if you are feeling brave you can get in the bathing pool and help wash an elephant! Only a few of us did, so there is no pressure but come prepared with bathers and a towel. There were showers on site but the water is limited as you can imagine. Also a great lunch and cute little gift shop with local gifts, with drinks to buy. Got myself a sugarcane juice.

From Bangkok : Ayutthaya Day Tour with lunch

Krystyna_C, Apr 2026

Lots of history and religious significance

It was really an informative and cultural heavy tour. I admired the beautiful architecture of the temples and our guide AJ was very knowledgeable about each temple. He gave a lot of insight into the Thai people, Buddhist religion as well as historical significance of some of the other provinces and background of a few of the kings. The only thing that wasn't pleasant was the heat, which though expected was underestimated as March and April are the hottest months for the country. They offered as much water as you needed to keep hydrated, there were also enough restroom stops, and even umbrellas at each temple for you to borrow freely. For the price and duration it was a very good tour.

Ayutthaya Sunset Tour: UNESCO Temples & Peaceful River Cruise

Anonymous, Apr 2026

Magical Sunset Experience – A Must-Do from Bangkok!

We had an incredible afternoon exploring Ayutthaya. This was a great way to see the historic capital without the stress of navigating ourselves. The itinerary was well-paced, covering 2-3 major temples followed by a relaxing river sunset cruise. Our guide, asiye-อาเซีย, was funny and informative, sharing stories we wouldn't have known otherwise. The transport from Bangkok was comfortable and air-conditioned, and we added the hotel pickup which I believe was well worth it and was a relief in the heat. The absolute highlight was the sunset boat ride. Seeing the temples illuminated from the water as the sky turned golden was breathtaking and provided some of our best photos. Everything was well-organised, and our guide even helped us with photography. Overall, a solid value for the money and highly recommend for anyone looking for a day trip from Bangkok.

Khao Yai National Park Full-Day From Bangkok - Including Ticket

Phyllis_B, Mar 2026

Worthwhile trip to world heritage wildlife center

The park is worth seeing even during the dry season and if you do not see elephants. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the plants and animals in the park, played recordings of animal sounds and showed us pictures of them. There is a nice amount of walking, some steep.
