Good pace, description, and stories provided by Mr. Tee. I highly recommend this tour. Umbrellas are provided by the park but it helps to bring your own. One bottle of water per person is provided by the tour group, but bring more for sure. For lunch we went to a great spot. Mr. Tee can provide you some good suggestions.
Nancy was our guide. She was engaging and funny and informative. She kept us moving without feeling rushed. The van was very comfortable. The tour was definitely worthwhile. There is no way we would have been able to visit all the sites and get all the information in a day that we did. Nancy even helped us track down a tamarind cutting board we have been looking for! It was a wonderful and exhausting day.
We appreciate your 5-star review and are thrilled to know that you had such a positive experience with us.
Every informative and tour guide is very nice, knowledgeable, and funny. I learned a lot about Thai culture
Thank you so much for your 5-star review! We are thrilled to hear that you had such a positive experience with us.
I had a great experience with Ratima! As a solo traveler, I was a bit nervous to go the tour alone, but she made it very engaging for the group. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your 5-star review! We are thrilled to hear that you had such a positive experience with us.
The pick up time I was given was 7:00 am and they were there to pick us up at 6:40 the tour lady called me and I told her we would hurry as we were still getting ready she then sent me messages every 5 minutes to hurry up because traffic was going to be bad. When we get in the car she is almost yelling at us telling us that we still had to pick up from other three places and we were going to be stuck in traffic. Ummm excuse me I told her, HER team is the one that arranges the pick up NOT me! I completely understand traffic is bad but if they would’ve given us an earlier pick up time we would’ve been ready. I didn’t not appreciate getting yelled at 7am for something that was not my fault. Other than that the rest of the trip was fine.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We sincerely apologize for your pickup experience and understand how frustrating that must have been. This is not the level of service we strive to provide, and we will address this with our team to improve our communication and coordination. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the rest of the tour, and we appreciate your valuable feedback.
First of all I wanted to express my gratitude to the guide (Kiki) because finally I have pictures of myself in Thailand😆 Travelling solo doesn’t really allow you to take that many, but she was super happy to take some and suggesting the best shots as well. About the tour itself: it was well planned and well paced, not too fast not too slow, after the tour done by the guide for each site we would have 15/20 minutes to go around alone (you might think it’s not much, but it was scorching hot, so I wouldn’t have wanted to stay there longer). Good thing is that each site provides umbrellas to shadowing you from the sun. Kiki was also very happy to answer all our questions and she even explained us Buddha’s images referred to days of the week we were born in, we had a lot of fun discussing people personalities on our way back. Would absolutely recommend this tour!
Thank you for your kind words and 5-star rating. We're so happy to hear that you had a great experience with us.
I had a ton of fun! There were a lot of sites to visit and everyone of them was fascinating. The historical sites were so cool and there were a lot of amazing things to see. Our tour guide, Kiki, was amazing and kept us informed about Thai culture, religious significance, and Thai history! She also showed us where all the great spots to snap a picture were!
We appreciate your 5-star review and are thrilled to know that you had such a positive experience with us.

Your 5-star rating means the world to us! We're glad to know that you were completely satisfied with your experience.
We had an outstanding experience with our tour guide (Lookmoo) and driver. They provided exception service from beginning to end and truly made our trip enjoyable and stress-free. They were very accommodating to our preferences, allowing us to adjust our schedule, spend more or less time at the attractions depending on our interests and even recommending excellent local restaurants and massage places. Lookmoo (our tour guide) was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. She shared fascinating history and cultural insights about the palace and temples we visited, making every stop much more meaningful. She gave us plenty of free time to explore at our own pace, enjoy the sights together and never made us feel rushed. She also patiently helped us take wonderful photos throughout the trip, ensuring we captured many memorable moments. We truly appreciate Lookmoo and the driver for their warmth, flexibility, and dedication to providing an exceptional experience. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a memorable tour. Thank you.
