Longtail boat canal tour with Joyce - The canal tour was n amazing experience, it was nice to see locals living at the canal and also the little markets by the canal. Our tour guide Joyce was amazing and very welcoming. He was very informative and shared his knowledge about the popular spots in Thailand. He enjoyed it and would totally recommend it.

A fun way to spend a morning and see the Artist’s House! - Surin was a fun and informative guide during our tour! We stopped at an old temple where we could pay respects, then at the floating market where we could make a bracelet or necklace at the artists house! We also got to feed some Catfish in the river! We saw lizards swimming in the water whilst on the boat too. Would recommend for a trip to Bangkok!
