★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 515 reviews · from $184Our pick

Review of Bangkok’s private tour to Maeklong, Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, and Ayutthaya, with timing, value, and practical advice.

“The tour was an incredible experience of multiple different sites in Bangkok and around the countryside! However what made the tour was our guide Nok! She was incredibly experienced and extremely knowledgeable as well as fun! Without her the tour would have been half as fun! Thank you to Nok and her team for an incredible time!”
