Hellfire Pass Tours and Tickets

Bella our tour guide was just brilliant. She sent us a msg the day before saying when she would pick us up etc. on time and perfect. The van was very comfortable clean, and loads of bottled cold water available. Bella explained the days agenda, and what a trip and experience. Bella covered the history of the places, and overall made the day.

The trip was outstanding. Bella and Mr Black went above and beyond even took us to geed the monkeys. The day is very long so be rested and have a great time.

This was a very comprehensive tour, starting at 6:30am until 6:15pm. Which included the Jeath museum in kanchanaburi, walking across the Bridge over the River Kwai, the war cemetery, riding the train along the ‘death railway’, a buffet lunch, visiting the Hell Fire Pass and Interpretive Centre, and Namtoksaiyoknoi water falls. The tour guide ‘Ken’ and driver ‘Sake’ were quite outstanding. They constantly went the extra mile, booking widows seats on the correct side of the train, providing a golf cart to take us down to the Hells Pass and ensuring we had a fantastic day.

We had a fantastic experience with Ken, our guide, and Mr Yoon, our driver. The day began at the JEATH War Museum, followed by a visit to the River Khwae Bridge — we arrived at the perfect time, just before it became busy. We then spent some time at the Kanchanaburi War Cemetery, which was very moving, and it was comforting to see how well the graves are preserved. Next, we took a train ride along the Death Railway for just over an hour, seated in excellent spots where we could get a good view of the wooden bridge. During the journey, Ken surprised us with a beautiful bookmark featuring our photo on the train — taken by the lovely female railway staff member who had also been handing out water and cake to passengers. Lunch was served at a local restaurant with a wonderful view of the wooden bridge. Afterward, we visited the Hellfire Pass Interpretive Centre and walked the Memorial Trail. It was incredible to see, though deeply sad, and left a lasting effect. We finished off with a stop at Saiyoknoi Water Fall. Overall, it was a full 12 hour day from start to finish, but I can’t think of a single part I would remove to make it shorter. A big thank you again to Ken, whose incredible knowledge of the history behind each stop made the experience even more meaningful and to Mr Yoon for his very comfortable vehicle.

My wife and I had a private tour, which was excellent. Our guide, Lucky, was very good. It was obvious that she had done this tour many times before, and knew her stuff. Bat, our driver, was also excellent. It was a long day, scheduled for 12 hours from pick-up to drop-off at our hotel. So long, that we opted to skip the last stop, the waterfall, and hopefully get back to the hotel sooner, but that got us into the middle of Bangkok's maddening rush hour traffic. There was no mention of this, but be sure to pack your own toilet paper. I would recommend that the tour be done in reverse if possible. The first stop was Kanchanaburi. 2 hours from Bangkok. Since we skipped the waterfall, our last stop was Hellfire Pass, don't miss it, but the return from there was 3 hours and longer due to traffic.

Peter & our driver were great! FUN & informative and coukdnt do ebough for us.. 👍 our day was suited to us perfectly. Always on time & made the most of our day. Thai traffic could make this a very long day but our driver was very good in the traffic! 10 hour day 3 hrs each wat .. but worth it xx

Very informative tour, our guide had great knowledge of the areas we visited and historical information. This is a long day tour and covers a lot of ground.

This was a long but fabulous tour. Our guide and driver took very good care of us and kept us informed of the plans all day. The waterfall was lovely and fun to swim in and cool off. The most unexpected thing was the quality of the museum at Hellfire Pass and how meaningful that was. Lunch was good and everything ran very smoothly. Would highly recommend this tour.
