Most excellent experience in Bangkok - We took the private option of this tour, and we were blown away by our experience. We were picked up from our hotel (which wasn't too close to where the actual canal tour started) and started learning things from our guide right from the beginning. All throughout was she knowledgeable about every question we had, and gave us interesting insights into Thai history and culture. She was very friendly and helpful, which really shaped our experience of Bangkok.
So, if you can, try to go with Ms. Mee, as she is a most excellent tour guide.

Great 2-hour tour on the river! - This was an incredible quick trip on the Chao Praya river! My husband and I absolutely loved our tour guide, Nutty. She was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about Bangkok and Thai culture that we likely would not have learned otherwise. Additionally, she took us to some cool hidden gems in the city, and she gave us great restaurant recommendations. This is a great option for a trip if you are in Bangkok for a short time and want to build in some other experiences as well.

Great tour for a quick trip on the river! - My husband and I had an amazing experience with our tour guide, Nutty. She was extremely knowledgeable and taught us a lot about Bangkok and Thai culture that we couldn’t learn from our guidebook. I highly recommend this tour if you’re looking for a quick trip on the river!

Your ‘go to’ Canal Tour - We booked the 4 hour canal trip. Joy was our guide. We initially booed a private tour for 2 then increased to 5 then to 8 and by the morning of the tour we had grown to 11. Joy and TJ from Chob Canal Tour Bangkok were quick and easy to accommodate changes.
Joy is a wonderful guide. She is very knowledgeable about Thailand and about the sights on this tour. She shares her knowledge with laughter and cheerfulness. She enlivened our group (who were all tired from just flying to Thailand from the USA).
The sites along the river and then canal are wonderful. We fed the catfish and visited the beautiful orchid gardens, and visited the Artist’s house Community where Joy treated us to coconut ice cream and various grilled and fried treats. She even brought us baked sweet potato dumplings made by her sister.
Every person in our group enjoyed the tour and fell in love with Joy. We highly recommend this company and this guide and the canal tour.

Great Experience - We had a wonderful time. Our guide, Joy, was very knowledgeable and had a pleasant personality, living up to her name. We particularly appreciated accommodations she made for some in our group that had physical limitations.

One of the best travel experiences I’ve had - The canal tour was easily our favourite part of our time in Bangkok. It was refreshing to get out of the tourist hotspots, and into the lesser known areas where we could see how the locals live. Our guide, Joy, made that possible. She was the best possible guide we could have asked for. She was warm and welcoming from the start. She was very accommodating with the itinerary that we requested, and she was a wealth of knowledge. I didn’t expect to learn so much about Bangkok’s history. Thank you Joy for an amazing day!

Joy in Bangkok - We have been to Bangkok several times and have seen and experienced a lot, so we thought we would not discover so much new. But Joy showed us an incredible number of new sides of the city and gave us so much joy. It was like a good friend showing us her favorite corners and the best snacks at the same time. Joy has really lived up to her name and we can only advise you to join this tour. It is definitely worth it!

Fun day out with friends visiting Bangkok - Kh Joy was a great guide and we really enjoyed seeing this part of Bangkok by private boat and with her knowledge of the area. We were two adults, two children and loved the artists house, orchid farm, eating fried banana bought off the boats and the giant Buddha. She was accomodating making some changes to the day so we could also see Wat Arun and the reclining Buddha after lunch on the river. A top day out!
