Wonderful tour and tour guide. Ms Tutu was an excellent guide, highly recommend. We had q fantastic time!
I joined the Golden Buddha, Reclining Buddha & Marble Temple private tour and it was amazing! Everything was smooth and well-organized. We had a comfortable mini bus with air-conditioning — very clean and spacious. 🚐 Our guide, Nan, was super friendly and spoke English very well. She explained everything clearly and answered all our questions with a smile. 😊 The Golden Buddha was shiny and impressive 🪙 The Reclining Buddha at Wat Pho was peaceful and beautiful 🙏 The Marble Temple was calm with elegant white marble architecture 🏛️ This private tour made it very relaxing and enjoyable — no rush, just the right pace. Perfect for first-time visitors or anyone who wants to learn more about Thai culture in comfort. 🇹🇭🌸 Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This was a great tour through the Buddha Temples with Rungaroon. She was very knowledgeable and passionate about her culture/city. Since it was also off-peak travel season, we sometimes felt like we had some of the temples to ourselves. I would highly recommend this tour!
Must view place in Bangkok. Though ticket price is 300 baht but worth to visit. near to grand palace but needs separate tickets. Credit/Debit card are allowed for ticket purchase.
Three very different, but interesting, temples. The Golden Buddha shows a lot of solid gold in one place, but the surrounding buildings are equally fascinating. The reclining Buddha is also impressive in a completely different way, in that the figure is absolutely massive, whilst being enclosed in a hall thast is almost too small for it. The final temple has a lot of interesting decoration, artwork and wooden figures of the Buddha. Well worthwhile.
I admit I was getting tired of visiting Wats. However, this was one of our last in Bangkok and I am SO happy we saw it. Absolutely the best! One of the guards also offered to take some pictures of me with my son, when he saw we were alone. Truly not to be missed!
The tour guide was passionate and knowledgeable! The temples have an energy to bring people from all walks of life together!
