“I really enjoyed this tour and thought it was great value for the price. I did the one that started at 8:30 AM which helped avoid the hottest hours. We were able to see the Grand Palace, Wat Phra Kaew, Wat Pho, and Wat Arun. This is a walking tour and an efficient one in order to hit all the sites in a timely manner. So, it's a bit of a hustle but I still felt like I got a good taste and view of each site with a desire to revisit some of the activities or museums in the future when I have more time. Our guide was Nicky.…”
