Best way to experience Bangkok - What a wonderful way to experience Bangkok! Mr. George was smart and kind and knew all the best places, including off the beaten track. Mr. Chob’s communication was thorough and very clear. We knew we were in good hands and would highly recommend his tour company to see Bangkok safely and hassle-free.

Highlight of Our Bangkok Trip – Dragon Temple, Floating Market & Train Market Tour with Alex - This was one of the best private tours we have taken anywhere in the world. Our guide Alex was knowledgeable, engaging, and timed everything perfectly so we could visit the incredible Dragon Temple (Wat Samphran), explore the floating market, and watch the train pass through Maeklong Railway Market.
He also helped us capture great photos and introduced us to local foods and refreshing Thai drinks, which made the experience even more authentic.
Our driver Tony was excellent, professional and punctual, and always ready with a cool comfortable car between stops.
We covered so much in one day and never felt rushed. Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. Highly recommend Alex and Tony if you want an exceptional Bangkok private tour.

The temple experience.. - This trip is worth the travel and though it's super hot but it was a worthwhile experience. Ms Aom was an excellent tour guide, a woman with a heart. She has so much patience especially also taking care of my brother by pushing his wheelchair in going to the reclining Buddha.
Overall, she's really very very good.
The trip is worth the experience.

Two amazing days with Mr. Chob's Guides - Our group of 12 (six senior couples from the US) recently sailed on the Silver Nova from Singapore to Hong Kong February 12-26. I spent the past year organizing private excursions/tours in each of our ports (Bangkok, HCMC, DaNang, and Halong Bay), a total of seven tour days. Thanks to fellow CC users, I was easily able to find tremendous suggestions of private operators. I researched each thoroughly, and then contacted my candidates in early 2025.
In Bangkok, we spent two days touring with Mr. Chob's company. From the first day contacting him in April of 2025, he responded to my emails within hours and provided thoughtful suggestions and thorough guidance on local customs and considerations for our group. He was very flexible in accommodating my own tour ideas with his, and he asked great questions about my group (ages, mobility, dietary needs, etc.). We quickly arrived at a two-day plan, which included my desire to stay overnight in the city, in order to eliminate the long drive back and forth from the ship in Laem Chebang port to the city center. He asked me to book the hotel myself, but he provided feedback on my choices and decisions. This was great because I had no problem obtaining a group discount for six rooms at the Sheraton Grande Sukhumvit in town, and arranging a phenomenal private dinner for us at their Thai restaurant, Basil.
The guides assigned to us by Mr. Chob were Ms. Joy and Mr. Alex, and if you search for them online you will find that they are universally regarded as outstanding ambassadors for Bangkok. The two days we spent with them, on two small buses, were flawless. We saw all the major sites (temples and palaces), had private boat tours (long boats and floating market from a private pier) and of course saw the train go through the train market. All during the trip we were provided with water, ice-cold towels, heavy snacks (including mango sticky-rice!) and other hospitality gifts, demonstrating their sense of Thai pride. We never had to wait for anything, and we were always exactly on time for all of our commitments. To give you an idea of value, the ship offered a private tour with overnight hotel accommodation in the city and almost exactly the same tour highlights that we saw, at a price more than double what we paid per couple. Our group of 12 gives Mr. Chob, Ms. Joy and Mr. Alex our very highest recommendation.

Best day ever for the family! - We had the most incredible private tour experience yesterday for our family of 8, and our guide Joy made the entire day truly unforgettable. From the moment we met her, she treated us like family — warm, welcoming, and genuinely invested in making our experience special.
She created a completely personalized day for our group, guiding us through stunning temples, meaningful cultural rituals, and unforgettable moments — from learning traditions firsthand to exploring breathtaking sacred sites and seeing the magnificent reclining Buddha. Every stop felt thoughtful, immersive, and tailored to our interests, especially with kids in our group.
Joy’s knowledge, kindness, and attention to detail made everything seamless and stress-free. She shared so much history and local insight while making the experience fun, engaging, and deeply meaningful. It never felt like a typical tour — it was unique, authentic, and incredibly special.
This experience was absolutely worth the price and one of the highlights of our trip. We highly, highly recommend Joy to anyone visiting — she truly goes above and beyond and made memories our family will cherish forever.

Excellent tour company and guide - We are NOT affiliated with this business. Thanks to other reviewers, we booked this group. Our group booked a private tour with Mr. CHob with Thai Tour Guides. Our guide was Mrs Aom. This company was amazing! I highly recommend Mrs Aom. We were overnight in Laem Chabang Port but we did not spend the nite in Bangkok. Mrs Aom made sure we saw everything in our 12 hour day. Our private shuttle was clean and the driver was perfect in his driving and pickups. They took us to clean restrooms, exceptional dining and made sure we were taken care of from watching the restaurant bills to seeing in everything we wanted to visit. We booked a private tour and they had suggestions and said we could customize it. Mrs. Aom was kind, and patient and made sure we saw all the Bangkok highlights. We even had time for Thai Massages before our canal rides. Our ship even changed ports at the last minute and they accommodated easily. Our group consisted of 4 people in a large shuttle. They provided water and as many bathroom breaks as needed. No deposit was needed so that helped in case the port was cancelled. They made sure we got to the port on time even thought it was an over nighter. I recommend this company highly. We are from the US and speaking English was not a problem with the guide, the driver and the company.

Good and Highly recommend Mr Chob Thai Tour Guide - I became acquainted with Mr. Chob Thai Tour Guide Company last May, after reading positive reviews from various tourists. Based on these recommendations, I chose to hire their services for a day at the palace with my group.
Our experience was truly enjoyable, thanks to the excellent arrangements. Our guide was Ms. Alice, who is fluent in both Chinese and English and possesses in-depth knowledge of history, explaining everything very clearly. Prior to the tour, we knew nothing about Thai history, but now we have a much better understanding. We felt very comfortable with Ms. Alice. I believe that all the tour guides employed by this company are highly experienced and professional.
In December, I contacted Mr. Chob via email regarding a day trip to Pattaya, as my group requested to work with Mr. Chob Thai Tour Company again because they felt comfortable with the tour guide arranged by him. He organized everything for us, but unfortunately, I made a significant mistake with the date I provided. Thankfully, Mr. Chob quickly rearranged the plans for me and informed me that everything was settled without any extra charges. For this trip, we again requested Ms. Alice. I sincerely appreciate Mr. Chob's efforts, especially since I know other companies might have charged us extra for such an error.
To everyone reading this message, I highly recommend this company. You should experience their service yourself to understand why I give such a strong recommendation.

Mutli generational family on vacation - Polly was our guide and we had a fantastic time. We booked a three day tour for our multi-generational family of 9. On day 2 some of our family fell sick with a stomach virus and we had to change plans. Chob and Polly were very accommodating and understanding and were able to make quick changes to accomodate us. Polly was very gracious, energetic, and informative. Thank you for making our trip memorable. This is our second time using this tour agency. They are professional, timely and provide excellent guides, drivers, and comfortable vehicles. Thank you for your hospitality Polly and Mr. Chob.
