Excursão privada ao Grand Palace Maeklong Rail & Floating Market

I had a free day after a work trip and wanted to sightsee. I wasn’t sure what to expect going solo but my guide was super chill and easy. She spoke English well and I really enjoyed the tour. Guide was on time. Coordinated well with the van driver throughout so we didn’t spend time standing around waiting. Driver had a cooler with bottled water. Guide was knowledgeable and helped me see all the top spots around Bangkok. Lunch was a lively place with really good food. Guide helped me with photos - some spots definitely show better from different angles and she clearly had taken many of the pictures before. Lastly, I mentioned a souvenir I wanted and she made sure we found some before the end of the tour.

Sam was very knowledgeable and kind. We were able to visit so many wonderful sites, and learn an abundance about the history, culture and language. Despite the high temperatures, we were able to enjoy sightseeing from the car, and see many great sights, in a comfortable air conditioned vehicle, with our friendly driver, Song.

Spent a lovely day, have seen all the higllights I have been expecting and even more - theater, ferry and floral market. Also had delicios lunch at local spot.

Spent a lovely day seeing all the high lights I was expecting - Grand palace, Flower market, river ferry …. In the middle of day we dropped for delicious lunch. The traditional performance at national theatre was really unexpected and interesting.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND. Tour guide was 30 mins late. Seemed like it was his 1st day on the job. DID NOT KNOW where to purchase tickets, or where the entrance to the temples were (had to ask around) Guide was NOT remotely English speaking, could NOT understand him, had to use google translate. Guide did not knew any of the history. He was reading from a book. We ended up using Google lens and translate and guided ourselves thru the temple. Only seen 2/6 temples before we were fed up and asked to be taken back to the hotel. For $400 this was a RIPOFF. We’re could’ve just done the temple tour ourselves and save the headache of trying to understand the guide who was supposed to be English speaking. DO BETTER TRIP ADVISOR. False advertisement.

Because our guide's English wasn't very good, this ended up being more of a transportation service than an actual tour. We certainly couldn't have traveled to or navigated all the complexities of the various places without her but we learned very little about the history of them and had to do our own research on them. The small restaurant she took us to was fine but there was quite a long wait.

Great tour of this majestic city. Our tour guide was friendly, informative, and would take all our pictures. We visited many temples and had a relaxing lunch. Driver was also very professional. Get your camera ready. So many things to take pics of. Pick up and drop off at our hotel. Left at nine got back around three.

If you love art, architecture, history and world religions this is the tour for you. I not only saw all the beautiful temples and their contents, I learned many things about the history and then meanings of much of the symbolism. My guide Benjamat is a practicing Buddhist and taught me many things about the religion, culture and practices. Highly recommended.

If you enjoy history, art, architecture and world religions you will love this tour. I got a full immersion to the Buddhist religion and for culture and formality. I even dress up in the historical costume that you can rent. My guide Benjamat is quite an expert and a practicing Buddhist. She taught me many things. Highly recommended!!

We had the most outstanding day with our guide Ms. Aey and our driver Mr. Kip. We were picked up in the lobby of our hotel. They arrived 30 minutes early, and we were ready to go, so we got started early, which was great! Ms. Aey was extremely knowledgeable about the city of Bangkok, as well as the history of Thailand. We learned so much about the country and the culture in just a few hours! Temples, markets, a ferry ride, fish feeding, tasting local fruits, delicious lunch at a local restaurant... so many fun things! We had previously considered trying to tour Bangkok on our own, but decided to take this tour instead. One of the best decisions we could have made. We would never have known what we were looking at, the history behind it, or the cultural significance. We would have also been completely lost as far as what we should do and what we shouldn't do. If you are undecided about taking a tour, do yourself a favor and take one. And you should absolutely take this tour! Highly recommended, whether it's your first time in Bangkok, or you've been there a dozen times. I guarantee you will learn something new! On a side note, our wonderful guide Ms. Aey was purchasing several things for us out of her own pocket, just to enhance our experience. Things that are not included in the price of the tour. It made the day even better (i.e. fruit, fish food, flower bracelets, wreaths, holy water, etc.) In total, it wasn't very expensive, but PLEASE consider reimbursing her for these expenses at the end of the tour. She expects nothing, but did everything she could to make sure you had the best time possible. A little bit of money goes a long way in Thailand, and please be respectful of that sacrifice. We also gave a tip to Ms. Aey and the driver, Mr. Kip, so please consider that as well. Business is very slow right now as the country rebounds from the pandemic. In summary, TAKE THIS TOUR! You will be so happy that you did!!
