River Kwai Tour - We were picked up from our hotel by Miss Diamond, and her driver Mr Vilai a lovely guide and driver who gave us plenty of information on our 2 hour long trip to the Station to pick up our train to go over the River Kwai. She made sure we had good seats on the train by the window on what she said would be the side with the best view. She pointed out everything of interest like plants and landmarks on our hour and a half train journey. On reaching station everyone on the train had photos on the track and Miss Diamond made sure we got photos in the best location. Lunch was amazing too, which was included in the package. We had a thoroughly enjoyable day and would recommend to do this tour.

A worthwhile and moving experience - We did this with just the two of us on the tour (good luck). It was a great way to see some important historic sights and get a real feel for the events around the building of the Burma-Thailand railway. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and helped us to really get the most of our time. The Hellfire Pass Interpretive Centre was a very interesting way to find out about some of the experiences of PoWs during the railway construction.

Fantastic Day - We have had a wonderful day with Pache (sorry if misspelt) and her driver. A very long hot day (12 hours) but very interesting and definitely worthwhile, we loved learning about the history of this trip but also seeing the countryside once out of Bangkok. Pache was very attentive to our needs all day, even stopping for Starbucks breakfast :) pick up was prompt, nice clean cool vehicle, lots of water provided , and safe driving . Pache secured a train seat with the perfect view for us and the lunch provided was really lovely. We have really enjoyed today and thank our guide and driver for this. This private guided trip is a must do !

Fabulous private tour - Our guide was Tanya, all I can say is wow, she was so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, we laughed from when she picked us up at 7am until we got back to the hotel at 6.30pm, it was a hot long day but it was an incredible day, the tour is def one you need to do, we did the private tour and it was the best way to do this as we could take our time or skip hits if we wanted to, highly recommend this tour group and if you can elect a tour guide please ask for Tanya

Very moving experience! - Great highlight tour of the Thai Burma railway experience espec for those interested in WW2 (Australian & Allies). The Hellfire Pass Interpretive Centre & the walk to the memorial via the cutting provide excellent info (don't forget to take the audio info pack as this really contributes to the experience).

“Amazing Asia Tours” was awesome, took great care with us. “A” the tour guide and “Golf” the driver,safe,Knowledgeable. - The Company “Amazing Asia Tours” were wonderful. Our tour guide“A” was very knowledgeable. He stayed with us all the time, showing the history of River Kwai and Hellfire Pass. The whole tour was very thought provoking. One should read and watch articles of Hellfire Pass and the Japanese interment camps, to get the full scope of the tour. The visit to the Don Rak War Cemetery in Kanchanaburi is a place of reflection of the sacrifices, of those who were there. Places you will see and experience are gently placed into the tour, that only you can make judgment of those terrible years of the war. We were cared for, well fed and watered. And the driver “Gulf” was very knowledgeable of the area with safety in mind. The large Van was new and very clean. Thank you again.
