Enjoyable excursion - Travelled in a long boat on the river. A guide explained what we were seeing. Stopped at the footing market and wandered around. An enjoyable time.

The canals, a different Bangkok - A different view of Bangkok, far removed from the noise of the traffic. Interesting wildlife that fed on the fish. The many beautiful temples. Once again Elema's care of us went above and beyond. She knew and understood the canal life and conveyed it to us in such an interesting way.

Superb experience worth a visit - Helena was adorable, explained very well, and showed us some hidden places (and an amazing mango smoothie!). She taught us a few words of Thai, and I really enjoyed the afternoon with her. The floating market of artists is a must visit, and we were lucky enough to be quite few, so it was really personalized and full of advice and various information.

Wonderful - Awesome tour! Elena was very helpful and sweet! We booked this tour for 2 people and we ended up alone. We got our own private tour. Definitely worth it, I recommend this tour to anyone who want to discover Bangkok off the beaten path.

Our favorite part of our Bangkok Trip! - It was my husband and I’s first trip to Bangkok and we took a late morning tour. Jes was an absolute gem of a guide, filled with fun facts, great at Monitor Lizard spotting, and an all around great time! We enjoyed the down time we had at the Artists House as well as the pacing of the trip; which allowed for a bathroom break in the middle. I highly recommend this for people looking to travel through time to when the canals were streets and learn more about the history of Bangkok. Finally we also appreciated Jes’s tips when it came to taking local public transit to our next tour.
