Highlights
  • The Grand Palace - The Grand Palace and the Emerald Buddha Temple were built together with the founding of Bangkok in 1782.

The architectural plan of this palace was almost identical in every detail to the royal palace of the former capital of Ayutthaya (about 600 years ago) because the King wanted to recreate the glory of the city as it was in the past. So it was completely first built in traditional Thai style.

However, at various periods, the influences from other nations affected the architecture in Thailand in different reigns such as the Chinese elements introduced by King Rama 3 in the early 19th century and the western building style introduced by King Rama 5 in the late 19th century.

So you will see a great mixture of European, Chinese and Thai architectural style. In addition, the Emerald Buddha image is the most important Buddha image in Thailand.

Can’t wait to be back - This was my first time traveling to Thailand and I came by myself so I didn’t know where to go or what to start from, so it all fell on Katie. She planned the whole thing for me for two days asking me things I like and enjoy. We visited lots of temples, took the boat on the river, she even took the subway with me just to show me how to get around the city and took me shopping. I had an amazing time thanks to her! Katie speaks fluent English and knows her stuff very well! She is friendly and easy to get along with, I am sure I’ll keep in touch with her even after this trip! Especially if it’s your first time in Thailand I highly highly recommend her, she will make you fall in love with Thailand even more!

A great experience - I had a 2 person tour (a friend & I) with guide Poppy who was a fantastic tour guide. Right from the beginning to the end, she kept us engaged. She was well knowledged in taking us to the better places for our food tour, that is, where locals patronize, and all the foods we tried were really great. She also took pictures of us in each location to commemorate our visits. I really enjoyed my time with her and will highly recommend.

Poppy - We were in Bangkok for only 4 full days and wanted to tour some Wats. Poopy, our guide, was not only very helpful and informative but also had a great sense of humor! We felt safe everywhere we went. Thank you, Pop, for a wonderful time!

Floating market, Railway market, - We had a full day sightseeing today. Noc was wonderful. We saw so many amazing places in one day! She is so knowledgeable and sweet and her English is so good. Her driver was great and being chauffeured around from place to place in an air conditioned luxury van was a nice break from the heat. I highly recommend Noc and her staff if you travel to Bangkok. I even mentioned flying out the next day and within a minute she organized one of he drivers to pick us up and take us to the airport. Highly recommend Noc!

Perfect tour and day - Noc was great and super friendly and funny. The railway market was cool. Really enjoyed the riverboat ride and visiting the temple. The small restaurant she took us to had the best Thai food I’ve had here so far. Totally recommend.

2 Great days in Bangkok with a Great Guide! - Our guide took us on 2 days exploring the sights in urban Bangkok, Golden Palace, IconSiam, Canal tour in the longboat, temples, as well as driving hours out to Kanabuchuri to see the Erawan Park waterfalls, Railway Market, and Floating Market which was outstanding! We went everywhere we had hoped. Cat, our guide did a great job customizing our tour to accomplish all the places we had read about before we came! Cat was attentive, knowledgeable, professional, caring, and fun to be with. Lots of driving with a great driver, very comfortable and well worth it. Cat did a great job and so did the driver. Thanks for 2 great days in Bangkok!

Nok you totally Rock - Nok made our trip to Bangkok an outstanding experience, she rapidly got a grips of what we wanted in our tour and how we liked our visit to be. She is extremely nice, easy going fun and honest, our 16 year old got along really well with her, and for those of you who have teenagers you know how hard it could be. She made us feel like we were her close friends visiting town, and she was mahjong every effort to make us have the time of our life. We regret that we did not book our next day trip with her, and we really wish we can have her every day and for every activity we had planned during our visit to Bangkok. So please be sure you contact her before booking your next adventure, to be sure that you can enjoy her companionship as your fun and amazing tour guide in the city .

Incredibly curated experience - We had an incredibly curated experience in Bangkok with Nok. She devised a day based on exactly what we wanted with some great ideas of her own. Because of Nok, we saw so much of the city beyond what we thought was possible.
