A half day tour covering the top temple complexes in Bangkok city. Very comfortable ride and guides. Easy to cover these cultural spots via this tour. Ample time to spend at each spot.
We were the only people on the tour and our driver and guide picked us up from our hotel. We expected a four hour tour but were told we needed to leave an hour at each end for traffic problems. The tour guide was extremely friendly and personable, but he did not really provide a tour as much as pointed out things at the Palace and temples. This may have been due to more limited English and we were glad we had been on another tour the previous evening as we knew some of the history / religious information required. The previous day’s guide also had a folder of pictures/maps to illustrate key points for us and this would have been really good on this tour. The sites were phenomenally busy with large tour groups jostling loudly to take set piece group photos. I really wanted to linger and take some photographs and look a bit more. My advice would be to find less popular times (evening/early morning).
Good Morning from Bangkok, i will highly appreciate if you may suggest us the tours you have visited so we can improve our service and make the best possible. however thanks for your kind chance to give us serve you while you are in Thailand. your a bit specific information as tours name or dates of tours would help us to improve
