Great time
Very nice just a bit too long, and my guide talks ands talks none stop I got a little overwhelmed
Do it!!
Penny was our tour guide and she was amazing. Gave good historical information and ensured we saw the best sights from the canals.
Brill... One not to miss.
Really nice easy tour with very good life jackets and great chatty guide. Would recommend and way cheaper than buying direct.
Great way to experience Bangkok and get out of the city congestion
We had such a wonderful time in seeing Bangkok through a teak boat experience. Our guide was awesome, humorous, educational and engaging. I’m not entirely sure that we were on the correct trip, as we did not stop and get off at two temples but it was quite pleasant regardless. We showed our (very recent) booking to the crew and it was a 2:30pm departure so they added us onto the printed list. They provided life jackets and water. The teak boat was covered on top and the breeze felt great on a hot day. Easy location, at River City Bangkok which had some shops, restaurants and art to explore before we got on the boat.
ok for an afternoon
nice view from the river during daylight. The boat engine is a bit noisy, beware if you sit in the back of the boat, and the sound system of the guide is not top. besides that, it is fun to have a different view of the buildings.
