Temple tour - We really enjoyed our temple tour. Our guide Sonny was very informative and answered all our questions. He’s knowledge was great and it’s was good that he explained so much to us while exploring each temple. Thank you for an amazing experience.

This experience was a major fail!!! - We were rushed, spent most of our time trying to keep up with the tour guide-Mind. We were scheduled to be picked up from our hotel lobby at at 1:00 pm for a four hour excursion . We received a message that morning indicating that we would be picked up 1:20-1:30 pm. We left our hotel around 1:20 with the driver. We drove to another hotel where we picked up our tour guide Mind, and two other guests. Mind had 2 excursions at once…was to take us to two temples, then get the other to guests to the Great Palace before they closed at 3:30. She rushed us along the entire tour. We spent most of our time trying to keep up with her as she rushed along trying to finish in time. As a result of poor planning by the guide, (especially considering the traffic in Bangkok), this was the worst experience we’ve done through Viator.
