“Peter was extremely knowledgeable and clearly broke down what we were seeing in the palace. He put the story in history by giving background to the characters that appear regularly in the statues and paintings on the grounds. The mythology around the Thai dynasty was an engaging thriller and Peter brought it to life in the palace. It was also nice to be able to take the river ferry to the palace. This was our only chance to do so, so it was nice to have that experience through this tour.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,074 reviews · from $25

A full Bangkok day trip hitting the Maeklong railway market and Damnoen Saduak floating market by boat, train, and local rides.

“This tour was mixed. The tour guides, Kwan and Wana, were very friendly and were the highlight of the trip. They even brought fruit snacks and candies for us during the bus rides. The other highlight was the boat ride where you can see the Thai landscape with fruit trees (including banana, coconut, jackfruit), taro, and even some large lizards if you’re lucky.
