Meet your English-speaking guide at Laem Chabang Port and depart for Rattanakosin Island, the original area of Bangkok when it was first established as the capital over 200 years ago
The dazzling, spectacular Grand Palace is undoubtedly the most famous landmark in Bangkok. It’s one must-see sight that no visit to the city would be complete without. It was built in 1782 and for 150 years the home of the Thai King, the Royal court and the administrative seat of government. The Grand Palace of Bangkok is a grand old dame indeed, that continues to have visitors in awe with its beautiful architecture and intricate detail, all of which is a proud salute to the creativity and craftsmanship of the Thai people. Within its walls were also the Thai war ministry, state departments, and even the mint. Today, the complex remains the spiritual heart of the Thai Kingdom.
The Emerald Buddha is considered the palladium of Thailand. It is the most revered Buddha image in the Kingdom.
Board on a motorized long-tailed boat to enjoy the scenery along the river banks and small canals of the Chao Phraya River, which once gave the name “ Venice of the East” to Bangkok.
Wat Arun or the Temple of Dawn, the major riverside landmark of Bangkok with a magnificent pagoda that soars some 280 feet into the sky.
The most important temples of Bangkok with its very impressive huge reclining Buddha image in bronze built in Ayuthaya period (1350-1767).
If time permits, we will visit the temple famous for its Sukhothai era Buddha image made of solid gold, three meters high and weighing five and a half tons.

Lots of temples and Buddha's. We liked the tour very much, but the boat ride was too long and did not allow for time to see other non-religious areas, e.g. Jim Thompson, spice markets, etc. Guide is excellent, and she was very enthusiastic, know the area and provided much assistance along the way
Excellent trip with ViVi and driver Mr Sam. They arrived right on time in a nice late model Toyota van. ViVi was an excellent tour guide. She took lots of pictures of us and did her best to keep us comfortable in the intense heat. Lots of cold water and cold cloths were provided. Mr Sam was always waiting with the van already cooled. He was an excellent driver. Would highly recommend.
It was wonderful. We were picked up at Cruise port. They adjusted our pick up time due to ship arrival. Our guide Joanne was very knowledgeable. We saw everything on list and had a traditional Thai lunch with sticky rice to finish off. Delicious. Long hot day but they took excellent care of us. Lots of water and wet towels as needed. Highly recommend.
Amazing all day tour with Miss Vivi (guide) and Mr. Sam (driver) from Laem Chabang Port and in to Bangkok. It was a long drive in, but we were very comfy in a private van with great air conditioning. We got to see all the highlights of Bangkok with great commentary from Miss Vivi. We got to do a boat ride and have an excellent lunch, as well. We were provided cold water and cool cloths between stops, too, which was helpful because it was very, very hot. Props to Miss Vivi for being so on top of things, and to Mr. Sam for his rockstar driving. To note: we left the van for about 3 hours, to go to the Grand Palace, longboat ride and lunch. It was OK, but bring your fans with you!
This Tour could not have been smoother. Giftsy was waiting for us at the door and we quickly made our way to Bangkok. She was an extremely knowledgeable guide, very caring and took excellent care of us all day. Her Driver Mr. sunshine was also on it always there when we were ready to load in, provided to cool towels and cold cold water. I highly recommend you book this tour with Giftsy as it could not have been a better day. I feel like for the time we had we saw all the highlights of Bangkok, including a long boat ride. The day was phenomenal. Highly recommend Giftsy and Mr Sunshine!!!
We covered a lot of ground, and saw temples that are so much more amazing than other temples we've seen outside of Thailand. Our guide and driver were very flexible in the schedule, and the boat ride was a blast!
We 100% and strongly recommend this tour. Jimmy our guide and Sam the driver were excellent….professional, knowledgeable, friendly, great customer service etc. we also had a nice lunch on River, and private boat trip which was very interesting. it was a long hot day including long drive from port to Bangkok and back - but van for us was very comfortable and guide added info as needed. Jimmy also pushed thru the crowds efficiently, and made sure to take pictures off us at prime locations ( and sent to us immediately.) Finally the company had great internet/what’s App communication all the way thru, including guide day before and day of. Excellent day, that we would do again 100%. ( we travel all over the world several times a year, and really use reviews heavily in our planning. You can be assured this is an honest objective review)
We had a wonderful time. We couldn't have asked for a better tour. The tour was about nine hours long, but it took about one and a half to two hours each way to reach our destination, so we only had about five hours of actual sightseeing. However, being able to see and experience everything I wanted to in such a short time was very meaningful and I will never forget it. If I have the chance to come again, I would like to spend several days there. Thank you to our tour guide Joann and the driver. I hope to see you again.
This tour offers a great experience, starting with convenient pick-up at Laem Chabang port and a timely return. John and the driver provide a spacious ride with water , towels and even a phone charger . The 2.5-hour trip to the city includes interesting historical insights from John, who captures memorable moments at each stop and facilitates cultural experiences, like supporting the Temple of the Golden Buddha. A tasty lunch with chicken Pad Thai adds to the experience. Despite Bangkok's traffic, John and the driver ensure a punctual return to the pier, making this a comprehensive one-day adventure.

There is lots of travelling especially as there are plenty of traffic jams in Bangkok. The guide was great although a little difficult to understand at times. The boat trip was fantastic, the grand palace amazing and the other temples showed the variety of decoration and styles. Lunch was in a local restaurant and very tasty. An impromptu trip in a tuk tuk was great fun too. We were a little late arriving back at port due to the traffic and the drivers confusion as to exactly where the ship was. Not a problem for us as we were in port overnight but this could have been as issue for some. Bangkok is very hot and humid-be prepared.
