Jim Thomsons Hus & Suan Pakkard Palace Tour
Beskrivelse
Jim Thompson House i hjertet af Bangkok er det tidligere amerikanske Jim Thompson hus, omdannet til et museum. Omgivet af en velholdt tropisk have er seks teakbygninger i teak i traditionel thailandsk arkitektonisk stil.

Rejseplan
Denne jungly sammensatte er det tidligere hjemsted for den navngivne amerikanske silkeentreprenør og kunstsamler. Født i Delaware i 1906, tjente Thompson kort på kontoret for strategiske tjenester (forløberen for CIA) i Thailand under 2. verdenskrig. Han bosatte sig i Bangkok efter krigen, da hans nabos håndlavede silke fangede hans øje og fik sin forretningsforstand; han sendte prøver til modehuse i Milan, London og Paris og gradvist opbyggede en stabil verdensomspændende klientel.
Jim Thompson House - Den dejlige haveindkapslede sammensætning, der sad på bredden af Saen Saeb Canal, ville have været helt ubemærket, hvis det ikke havde været for en arv, der blev efterladt af en middelaldrende amerikansk mand ved navn Jim Thompson. Hans elegante bolig enklave, der består af seks traditionelle thailandske teaktræhuse transporteret fra Ayutthaya og Bangkoks Ban Krua samfund, gentager Jim Thompsons 30-årige kærlighedsforhold til sydøstasiatiske kunst- og kulturarv.
Suan Pakkad Palace er et sted at finde visioner om Thailand, du troede for længe forsvandt i Bangkok. Dets navn betyder 'kålplaster', med henvisning til når landet ikke var mere end bare det. I dag er det imidlertid en velplejet tropisk have med fredfyldte damme, der omgiver otte traditionelle thailandske huse, som hver brækker til overfyldt med kunst, antikviteter og humoriteter, der hører til Prince og Princess Chumbhot.

My guide was very knowledgeable with many good suggestions and tips for my stay in Bangkok. It was nice to have a half day tour available to explore in my own in the afternoon. Water was provided also along with hotel pick up and drop off.
Hello Bruce, Thank you for your kind words about the Jim Thompson's House & Suan Pakkard Palace Tour. We're thrilled to hear that your guide was knowledgeable and provided useful suggestions for your stay in Bangkok. We're glad you appreciated the flexibility of the half-day tour, allowing you to explore on your own in the afternoon. It's also great to know that you found the provided water and hotel pick-up and drop-off convenient. We hope to welcome you back on another tour soon. Best regards, Nick (IAsia Thailand Online)
Jim Thompson’s home was a beautiful and well-cared-for complex. My disappointment had most to do with how limited the shop was in inventory. The Suan Pakkard Palace was nice, but rather boring. Our guide, Luck, and driver were very helpful. And the Thompson house guide was excellent. More information and Thai-style architecture would have helped.
Hi Jim, We are grateful that you took the time out to leave us a review. Your feedback helps us to improve service for everyone. Thank you, Nick
The architecture, the story of Jim Thomson and the art make this well worth visiting, even on a hot steamy day. The gardens are very photogenic. I would suggest it’s not a place for families with your children as you have to take care and are asked to put anything larger than a small purse into a locker.
Hello Dianna, Thanks for joining us on the Jim Thompson tour and we appreciate you taking the time to write a review, Regards, Nick
With the guide's rich knowledge, the tour was really fun and exciting. I definitely recommend it to everyone at least once. Photography is prohibited indoors and is filled with the treasures he has collected. Personally, it was one of the most exciting times of my visit to Thailand. After the tour, it's good to stop by the souvenir shop to buy something, but it's not cheap. It is good to stop by on the way to or back from ICONSIAM, and it is convenient to use both taxis and BTS.
Dear Young, Thanks for sharing your recent experience at the Jim Thompsons House and we appreciate your 5 star review, Regards, Nick
Supposed to have TukTuk picked up but was told that we had to walk to Jim Thomson . Do not listen to the hotel staffs, these was Tuk Tuk - Just wait . I saw Tuk Tuk (Jim Thomson) and I just needed to let them know that I wanted a ride . Overall tour is good, like good to know. Houses are very nice and very well kept. Garden is beautiful. I like it here.
When you arrive it is like change to another place, coming from the noise and confusion.... Suddenly you can hear the water and little birds and forget the pollution... The guide visit is very well organized and the story of Jim Thompson is incredible. If you come to BKK is mandatory come and visit!

you can have a guided Tour at Jim Thompson House for 200 Baht (approx. 6 Dollar - 5 Eur) - Tour is english, french, Thai etc.
Dear ThePeter1, That’s for your comments. Not sure what you mean you can have a guided tour for 200 Baht? Our tour includes hotel pick up and drop off and the Suan Pakkard Palace and then Jim Thomson House. The 200 Baht is only the entrance fee to the house without anything extra as above. If you want to explain further please do email us at guest@iasiathailand.com Regards. Christopher
