Top Bangkok Full-day Tours - page 5

Our tour guide Nan was amazing, it was long day of sightseeing and she did our day going fast, fun and informative. Her English is great and she shared with us a lot of information. All activities are very well organized, swimming in the waterfall, preparing food and feeding elephants and many more :)

When considering the tour be aware, there’s a fair amount of walking, though it is not risky or or difficult as to steepness or excessive links, and that it will be hot, such as the weather in Bangkok. I had a wonderful day with Mr. Whisky is my personal guide. He’s an excellent guide: effectively conveys historical information, names, dates, and impacts. He was very attentive to my personal needs at this stage of life approaching 80 years.. He navigated easily our way through crowds and avoided situations that would waste time. Good sense of humor kept the pace moving so we use the time available wisely he was punctual he was professional in his presentation. He made the day very enjoyable for me. I would highly recommend both the tour and my guide to anyone considering touring Bangkok my thanks to Mr. whisky for a great day.

Excellent full day tour to the temple ruins of Ayutthaya, located about 90 minutes outside of Bangkok. Very easy meeting point to find, and guests were organized into their respective tours by placing a sticker on your shirt with your tour operator's name. The bus was quite comfortable, and water was provided both on board, and at the restaurant for lunch. Optional soft drinks could be purchased at the restaurant itself. Our guide, Jum (whose English was great), provided a fantastic overview of each temple that we were to visit. She also educated us a lot about the city's history on the bus ride out to Ayutthaya, and the importance it played as a one-time capital of Thailand. Jum guided you through the entrance to each temple, gave a brief synopsis of the highlights of each temple, and then released you with a sufficient period of time to explore/take pictures on your own. A set meeting time was established for all guests to meet back at the bus afterwards. For some reason, by mistake, I chose a price that didn't include lunch or the entrance fee to the last (and most detailed) temple, but Jum was able to collect payment from me onboard the bus, so that we didn't miss out on these two occasions. So I would suggest choosing the tour price that includes the lunch and last temple, since you're most likely going to enjoy these two activities with the rest of the guests anyway. Jum was sweet, and did a short "thank you" speech as we boarded the bus for our return trip, and then left you alone to either rest, or visit with other passengers while traveling back to the drop-off point (different than the starting point, and within steps of a BTS station). Well worth the money, and a special thanks again to our knowledgeable guide, Jum!!
