A Required Tour for with a Required Tour Guide - I don't think I can find the words to express how amazing this tour and Nick my tour guide was. 1st. Can we give it up for the pictures. (Hand clap) he capture such great photos, were very knowledgeable about the history and was an ll- around pleasant tour guide. The Water Lillies is chef kiss. I enjoyed this and would very much go for another future photoshoot. Learned a lot about the different temples and religion.

Excellent Tour Day! - Nu was wonderful! My whole family loved him and the driver. They came on time. We loved our pictures and we all paid the 600 baht extra for the videos. The 3 temples were wonderful and people free lol. We were able to take beautiful pictures with no interruptions. Highly recommend!!! It’s worth the money for peace of mind.

Immersive cultural tour - We had a great day with Patty visiting the temples, and elephant sanctuary. We opted to skip the Lillie’s and combine another elephant tour option for a full day: The temples were beautiful, and by leaving in the morning we were the only visitors at most of them. Patty taught us a lot about Thai culture, Buddhism, and the lives of monks. And she of course took some picture perfect pics for us throughout the day. I recommend both this tour, and the elephant sanctuary!

Lilly Pad photos and temple tours - Bessica was wonderful, took a lot of great photos and was very knowledgeable about the temples we visited. Bessica made sure we were first in line for the lily pad photos and got the boat with the better shade. Such a fantastic tour guide!

Very disappointing - The Guide was very informative with excellent English ,which enabled an informative tour of the temples and discussion about Thai life etc. However, the tour itinerary was swapped around and we arrived at the main event “The Water Lilies “at 10.32. Our ticket indicated that there was a 4 hour wait….The water lilies were not what we were expecting. It is a hotel with a large pond growing lilies and “the experience “ is to have your photo and video taken by a drone whilst you pose on a fixed boat-shaped pontoon. Great if you’re needing an instagram moment but that’s it. Not worth the very expensive price for this tour. We decide after 90 minutes we had enough of watching the pretty young things posing endlessly for besotted boyfriends and doting daddies and asked to leave. If you’re still interested then make sure to go to the Water Lilies first!
