We had a walking tour of the main attractions in Bangkok. We started at the flower market , did a trip around the canal , had lunch and finished with the Gran Palace. Our guide, Buay was wonderful. Full of historical knowledge . I also wanted to buy some things and he took me to the store that had exactly what i wanted. Overall a great experience

My wife and I have been to Thailand in the recent past and booked a number of tours. This tour would rate as one of the best. Why ?? Because our tour guide (Muay) was excellent; very knowledgeable, friendly, personable and easily approachable. A 5 STAR RATING is appropriate. Will book any tour with Muay in the future

The tour was well-organized, and our guide was both knowledgeable and enthusiastic, sharing fascinating insights about the history, culture, and hidden gems of the area. We explored vibrant markets, tasted delicious street food like dim sum. The atmosphere was lively, with colorful lanterns, bustling streets, and the aroma of fresh cooking filling the air. The guide also took us to lesser-known alleys where we discovered authentic local shops and traditional stores. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to experience the rich culture and flavors of Chinatown in Bangkok!
