Fantastic guide...great trip. Recommend! - A great way to see Bangkok. Loved the Air-conditioned transport and the boat trip! The Palace was amazing, as was the Reclining Buddha. What made the trip really stand out though was our Guide Mr Time. He went out of his way to be helpful, friendly, kind and flexible to the needs of our family. He made the trip unforgettable. He was especially good with our three young children...engaging them and answering all their questions! Our driver Mr O was also great getting us around the city.

Excellent day tour and guide! - Our private day tour with Kim was terrific. She picked us up at our hotel. We chose the public transportation option as this was the most efficient and we wanted the experience. We rode the subway, a boat across the river and back and a tuk tuk. Kim took care of all the tickets and led the way. The temples and Grand Palace were amazing and Kim was very knowledgeable. We learned a lot about Thai history and culture and also Buddhism. Kim was open to any and all questions. She made a lunch reservation while we were touring and arranged a tuk tuk to pick us up when lunch was finished. She even took a number of photos of our group and sent them to us. Seamless. I highly recommend this tour and Kim.

Wonderful day in Bangkok with Gwen - Today was our first full day in Bangkok and we took this private tour with Gwen as our guide. Gwen is an outstanding guide and her love of Thailand makes you fall in love with it too. Our tour was wonderful and at a pace that my husband and I could keep up with and still be able to see many sites. We also had fun on multiple forms of transportation like tuk tuks, ferries, walking and taxi. The knowledge that Gwen has and the way she engages with you is fun and educational. We also did the optional lunch and the restaurant we went to was excellent and yummy. My husband and I highly recommend this tour and make sure you request Gwen to be you guide.
