My second time - I’ve done this twice , once alone and second time with friends. Booked it with airbnb before It’s so perfect for an easy going for exploring things you couldn’t do on your own. The whole tour is picture filled Instagram able tour. Crazy delicious food made by locals . 100 percent will do this again when I bring family.

Giant Buda and Museum. - It is a great site to visit; most temples are just temples; this location has a three-level museum with artifacts. If you have to choose one location, I would choose this for the museum.

An Unforgettable Day in Bangkok - An exceptional experience. Being unacquainted with Buddhism, this was the perfect way to understand Buddhist culture and life and immerse ourselves in practice. Miew Miew was such a wonderful and kind person to spend the day with and lead us on this cultural journey. The beautiful longboat ride through the city was in and of itself worth the tour. You'll enjoy a very nice lunch at the Klong Bang Luang floating market, see a stunning but less touristy side of Bangkok, and be mesmerized by the beauty of Bangkok's temples and giant Buddha. This is a day we will remember for a long time.

Wonderful guide, wonderful tour! - This tour of Bangkok temples, riverboat ride and lunch was so special. Our guide, Miew was especially wonderful and attentive. She was so cheerful and kind. She led us through special Buddhist rituals in the temples and taught us about the history and traditions. We visited places where other tourists don’t often go. We had our own private boat on the canal which felt special as we passed all the other boat tours with large groups. We loved our lunch and our stop at The Artist House to make bead bracelets and to feed the catfish. Miew took hundreds of photos and videos of us along the way and shared them with us even before the tour was over. This made it nice to be able to put away our phones and just enjoy the experience. And she is a great photographer! She even helped us navigate our way to the subway station and told us which trains to take to get back to our hotel. She went above and beyond to make it a special, personal tour for me and my daughters.

Amazing tour to avoid tourist trap. - What a wonderful day we had with Brandy &Friends on our Giant Buddha & Bangkok tour. Brandy helped us understand Buddhism in Thailand , guided us through several temples and answered all of our questions. Each temple was so unique and beautiful. The green crystal pagoda was amazing! Then, we went on a longtail boat tour on the canal with a stop at a community temple and a walk through the local community market. We tried Original Thai Coffee and had a wonderful lunch along the canal. And, we fed lots of fish. Everything was perfect! We highly recommend this tour to get off the beaten path of the main tourist spots. Having a local guide makes all the difference in understanding what we see and experience and showing us places we would never know about. It was one of the highlights of our time in Bangkok. Thank you!
