Grand palace secrets and beautiful spots with nancy - We went to the grand Palace with Nancy, who is very knowledgeable and we had such a great time. She made sure we stayed away from the heat and the sun took great care of us and show us all the beautiful spots and help us with fantastic pictures too, and then.

Tour with Kiki - We had a wonderful experience with Kiki as our tour guide. She was very informative and shared interesting details throughout the tour. Kiki answered all of our questions, happily took our photos, and even suggested what we could do next to make the most of our visit. She was professional, spoke excellent English, and made sure we stayed on time without ever feeling rushed. Highly recommend her as a guide!

Awesome tour! - I enjoyed having a guide to help give me historical and present context of the Grand Palace and the Emerald Buddha! If we went by ourselves I feel like we would have had a poorer experience. My only feedback is for the guide to slow down a little bit

Don’t chose them !! - Horrible = NO experience at all! If late, you will leave and let customers down, considering we are talking about a Friday in BKK, it’s an ugly gesture from your side.
