Highly recommended! The generosity and professionalism of the Asian Trails team contributed greatly to our vacations. - We've just finished 12 magnificent days in Thailand (Bangkok, Chiang Rai, Chiang Mai and Krabi). Many thanks to everyone for their invaluable tips and advice, but especially to the spectacular Khun Sai. See you (soon) in Thailand!

Great private tour - Excellent private tour with a guide KANOKRAT. She was very knowledgeable, and it was interesting to listen to her. She took a lot of photos of me and, upon my request, she took me to a lovely cafe for lunch. Great experience overall!

Let the guide lead you. - You can visit the templates and the palace on your own but it is not the same without have someone explain the history and architecture of the building. Our guide was very pleasant and professional. We enjoy the tour very much.

Temple tour with a great professional VICTOR - My partner and I decided to take this Enterprise for the trip and it was a success. We were touched that day by a guide named Victor and he explained absolutely everything about Thailand, the excursion we did also liked a lot. But we want to make special mention of Victor for his human quality and his great professionalism. A 10 to both the Enterprise and its employees. In love with Thailand and its people.

Thailand,tour,temples,grand palace,asian trails - A fascinating place, the temples impress as does the great palace. We had everything organized with the Enterprise asian trails HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, we got the guide "Victor" a very friendly and fun Thai. We were also greeted on arrival in Bangkok and on the same return, helped us with the passage at the airport etc. Another good experience we took from visiting Thailand the kindness of the people, one of them, Victor (I don't remember the name in Thai). A 10 recommend the tour and Enterprise asian trails

AVOID! - AVOID! I just want also to let you know that - I have 30 years of tours/traveling so this is not my first experience - This is a private tour (but, honestly, 80% of what I am going to write would be bad for a group trip too….) and the price isn’t cheap - After this excursion we had very good tours, so, yes, we were unlucky You can just read title of each point or read the whole thing if you want to know more. 1) English tour guide and no English 😳 ? The guide (Mark) speaks little to no English. To the extent that when we were asking questions slowly, the broken English answers he gave were unrelated to the topic. 2) A real tour guide? - During our car trip to the different attractions Mark didn’t give us any context: we didn’t know we were going, what we would see, and the location’s basic history. Zil, none, zero, nada… we tried multiple times in different ways to let him know we wanted to know more. It always fell on deaf ears. The trip was him either talking to the driver or on his phone. - All the information he gave us was a game of true or false. We would get out of the car and all he would say was “we are at X/Y/Z”. As afore mentioned, he gave very basic information: when asking other guides afterwards, we discovered what he said to be mostly wrong. Since he was checking Google most of the time to answer at our basic questions, I am wondering why he didn’t get the info right? - For Thai people the Royal family has an immense value. This guide wasn’t able to even distinguish one king from another (not even to say if the figure portrayed was a king or not 👀 ) , even in front of photos. This left us wondering whether he even is a real tour guide. 3) Let’s keep up with the pace! Mark would quickly walk ahead, neither waiting for us nor checking where we were, leaving us slightly lost at times. 4) History and math test time! I think this is less important but was a kind of the cherry on top of the pie. - His answers assumed we were already aware of every step in Thai history and that what he was saying was common knowledge. - When we were asking for dates on events/buildings, Mark replied using the Thai calendar. When asking for clarification, he would always say either 100 or 250 years ago, which we later discovered was also not true for most information. To sum up, RUN away from this tour!
