Not a good experience. Excellent guide who did her best but this tour did NOT do what they r promised. It was supposed to include admission to Wat Arun, Palace and Flower Market but went into none of these. It consisted of a boat ride up a very wide nondescript canal / not the narrow atmospheric ones you might imagine - and a long traffic-jammed drive-by the outside of several sights. Finally we did not have a long-boat. Quite disappointing

Excellent private tour. Our guide Watchira was incredibly knowledgeable and gave us a wonderful day in Bangkok. The history, art, culture and much more in Bangkok is simply amazing and Watchira was excellent at showing us around. He spoke excellent English and had a great sense of humor. The taxi ride through Bangkok and the long boat ride through the canals were very well organized. If you have a few hours while in Bangkok, this is a must do trip. Highly recommended.

Was a great experience and we had a fantastic guide who told us a lot about the city, history and life in Bangkok. She did a fantastic service and made the experience very enjoyable. What we especially liked was the cruise through the channels and walk through the flower markets.

My colleague and I wanted to see the sights and Miss Supatsara Wonghong (Aye) showed us around to the key landmarks. She's a wealth of knowledge about Thai history and impresses with her expansive recall of dates and historical info. We toured several temples and got she helped us "skip the line" and got us right into several venues very quickly. That's nice when it's so hot and you don't have to wrestle with the crowds. We toured the canals and got a glimpse of how the working class live, work and worship near the river. Thai people are very friendly and welcoming and Aye is certainly representative of their gracious nature. Transportation was very clean and well air-conditioned, so getting around town in the heat and congestion is done in style.
