Highlight of my trip to Thailand! - I had an amazing time on this tour with Aey as my guide! She was very knowledgeable, the tour ran smoothly, and the temples and places are beautiful and full of history. The timing was perfect to avoid crowds and the heat of the day. I highly recommend this tour if you’re in Bangkok and requesting her as your guide!

Great Day In Bangkok - This was a great day tour to take. It was a private tour so there were only 2 people, my husband and I. Aey was as pleasant and nice as they come. She guided us through the city sites and explained some of the history behind them. She took pictures of us at the different sites and sent them to me by email. We were driven around the city in a well air-conditioned new Toyota SUV. The driver was very polite and nice as well. Overall, this was a great tour and I would recommend it to anyone not wanting to be part of a big crowd.

A fabulous day out in Bangkok - We were picked up from our hotel promptly by our guide Supatsara Wonghon at 09:30.
We were shown to our car and driver and set off on our trip.
The whole day was packed with a variety of the best temples and the Grand Palace.
In between temples we were shown the flower market, ate street food and enjoyed a fabulous trip in a long tail boat.
We both thoroughly enjoyed our day and would highly recommend this tour.
