We booked a private tour with a German speaking guide, and everything went perfectly. Our group included two adults and three children/teenagers. Our guide, Tai, who grew up in Bangkok, provided detailed explanations throughout the day and tailored the itinerary to our needs. After visiting the Royal Palace, we took a long tail boat tour of the canals, had lunch by the river, sampled Pho, and more. Tai always offered a variety of experiences and treats, fed the fish, and added many special touches. It was a truly wonderful day.

There was a slight mix up when the tour time was changed to 8 a.m., but the guide wasn’t notified. To compensate, the company provided free drinks and snacks later on. Our guide did her best.She was knowledgeable, energetic, considerate, and well prepared, putting in a lot of effort. She was truly wonderful. However, her strong accent made it quite challenging to understand her, which made following her explanations difficult.

Helpful? Yes
It might be helpful to include the temple entrance fees in the overall price, even if that means raising the cost slightly, so that payment can be made all at once.
Helpful? Yes
The description of the activity was quite misleading. I initially thought it included a guided tour, but it turns out it was only transportation to the temples. You have to pay extra for the guide, temple entrance fees, and other costs. The vehicle and driver were very pleasant, but considering we only paid for transport, the price felt quite high. The guide, whom we paid for separately, was excellent and very friendly.
Helpful? Yes
He was a fantastic driver and very personable. He assisted us with taking numerous photos, making the experience enjoyable, and I felt really comfortable throughout.
Helpful? Yes
It was definitely worth the price because we had a personal driver who picked us up and dropped us off at our own pace. No one was waiting for us, so we never felt rushed or pressured to hurry. However, it wasn't a guided tour. The vehicle was clean and comfortable. Traffic was chaotic, but the driver handled it expertly and got us to our destinations safely.
Helpful? Yes
Despite mixing up the timing and causing us to wait for two hours before we left, the guide still made the tour enjoyable. He was friendly and supportive throughout the experience.

The guide was excellent. He explained everything clearly and took the time to answer all our questions. We'd happily recommend this experience to others.
Helpful? Yes
The temples were absolutely beautiful. Being picked up directly from our hotel made things really easy. While the guide was friendly and eager to help, he seemed a bit underprepared.
Helpful? Yes
The experience itself was enjoyable, but I'm still unsure why the overall cost was so high. Once you add the food and entrance fees, it felt extremely expensive.
Helpful? Yes
Our driver, Bas, arrived right on time and was incredibly helpful. When our mobile data didn't work, he generously let us set up a hotspot on his phone. There was no guide on the tour, so we simply transported ourselves between stops. Entrance tickets were covered by the driver, making the total cost quite high. In retrospect, I think taking a taxi would have been a more budget friendly option.
Helpful? Yes
It was a very disappointing experience. It was very expensive for what was offered. There was no guide, so I had to arrange and plan the activities myself. I didn't even get to visit a temple.
Helpful? Yes
The tour would have been more enjoyable if it included a broader range of sightseeing, not just temples. A full day tour covering highlights of Bangkok would be a better option. It also would have helped if the driver provided some explanations about the city and landmarks. Overall, the price felt too high for what was included.
