An excellent tour

Richard_B, Feb 2025
Very friendly and flexible. Terrific driver and good guide. Long ride from Laem Chebang to Bangkok, but driver was sensitive to passenger comfort. A/C worked great. Not a lot of time in Bangkok, but that was due to long drive and early ship departure. Driver and guide made the most of it.

comfortable trip...

comfortable trip driver met us where he said we would were able to navigate where we wanted to go easily there were a lot of temples - i really don't think you need to see them all we didn't need to eat/drink but felt pressurised to do so guide very knowledgeable and would recommend transportation very comfortable

Thailand's historic past and present brought to life in a nutshell.

Contacted the previous day by Mr Panu, our guide and pick up organised which went like clockwork. Long drive to Bangkok which we already knew about. Mr Panu was very informative and showed us round all the historic quarter of temples and the grand palace which were magnificent. Everywhere was all very busy with people and traffic but we were well looked after by our guide. We had an outstanding thai lunch. Despite the crowds would well recommend this tour as a must do for anybody interested in the country's historic past and present. It was a long day but well worth it.

Did not get what I paid for!! Avoid!!

TERRIBLE!! It all started with a small sedan coming to pick up a family of four. (Two adults, 2 kids). We were all squashed in the back seat for the entire day (driver and guide were in the front). Kids had to travel without seatbelts which was dangerous and illegal. We were told that their instructions were only to pick up two passengers. I paid for four!!! Then we did not get the canal barge ride promised in the description. Again this should have been part of the promised service. Guide tried to contact head office but they did nothing about the car nor offered the canal ride by private boat even when I showed them the description on their own booking site which indicated the canal boat trip. I do not recommend using this company. I have requested a partial refund!

The day did not start well with the late arrival of the tour coach and guide requiring me contacting the company to ascertain why they were late. Once they arrived we quickly started the tour with the driver driving as if he was in a formula one race. The vehicle was not in the best of condition with the rear seat passengers experiencing a very uncomfortable journey. The guide although knowledgable of the history really struggled with her English language and while she tried her best only those immediately behind the front seat could hear her commentary. The content of the tour is good .
