We booked this tour as we only had one day in Bangkok and wanted to see as much as possible. We were not disappointed. The minibus arrived on time and there was 5 of us all together so a small friendly group. The tour guide was lovely and full of amusing stories. There was a lot to see in the time and if you wanted a more in-depth information this may not be for you but was ideal for us.

An enjoyable day with a very nice guide who gave a lot of useful detail. The tour ran smoothly. The Gem factory at the end was a surprise as it wasn't advertised in the tour, but I guess that is to be expected in Bangkok. It did not detract from the tour and I would recommend this tour.

What the most I like from this half day tour is that the tour leader was a very kind person. He told us the historical information regarding the places we have visited. I think all temples and palace would be just an ordinary place if we do not know the story behind. And Mr. Pasith Kasuya, with his pleasant personality, as our tour leader can provide this information and made this tour is a memorable one for me and my husband.

Our Tour Guide introduced us to our fellow travellers, was a people person who imparted her excellent knoweledge in a respectful way. The sites were truly amazing. There was so much to take in but this is the backbone of Bangkok life. She shared local food with us as she wanted us to really 'taste' the city. An excellent Tour.

The tour was nice and showed a number of temples in the city.Overall it was nice though a bit long for a half day (7am until 2pm). The guide was excellent though there was no explanation of why there were so many temples in the city.

good quick run thru temples n palace, but too fast paced, full day would've been better, more time to shop n take it all in that way

The tour was longer than stated. There was another guest who didn't participate on the day and held the tour up numerous times. The tour guide left us for a long period of time to assist this guest get a taxi to leave early. The tour guide as a result was not accommodating to all our needs and focused on the one participant who wasn't wanting to do the tour. The tour gue

A good tour to see both temples and city in a short time and we had a very knowledgeable guide but you aren't warned of the high pressure selling in the jewellery factory at the end - be prepared!

The trip was very interesting. What we did not like however was being taken to the Gems Factory at the end. We had not expected to do this and asked to be returned by taxi to our hotel.

Great tour - very knowledgeable guide who spoke perfect English. Gave us a lot of background info on the Palace and Temples that we wouldn't otherwise have had. However, didn't appreciate being dropped off at a jewellery shop that wasn't on the itinerary.

The tour is awe-inspiring with amazing buildings and gold and jewels on some of the statues. You just can't believe what you are seeing. The company that conducted the tour were very good and gave out lots of information and answered everyones questions. Can't fault it.

The stop at the end of the tour which was not mentioned in the itinerary--the film and visit to jewelry and other crafts store--made the tour entirely too long, especially given Bangkok traffic. We did not get back to our hotel until after 3pm. The tour itself was excellent, but that part spoiled the experience for us.
