10 Rail Tours in Bangkok That You Shouldn't Miss
Golden palaces, floating markets, majestic porcelain-laid spires…you've never seen a capital city quite like Bangkok. Visit Pratunam or Siam Square for premium shopping, then unwind in the European-style gardens of Dusit. Thon Buri is home to the awesome Wat Arun temple, and over in Phra Nakhon, you’ll find the Wat Pho temple of the Reclining Buddha. Savor mango sticky rice at a food stall before taking in the gilded splendor of the Grand Palace.

After spending 2 weeks in various regions of Thailand, we wrapped up our trip in Bangkok. We had one full day so wanted to see and learn as much as we could. We communicated with Nikki in advance of our trip and he was very friendly, responsive and helpful in recommending which of the many options were not to be missed. Nikki met us at our hotel and arranged tuk-tuks and taxis to get us to the various locations which was easy and fun. Our day was chock-full...we went to Pak Klong Talad flower market (beautiful!), the Grand Palace and Emerald Buddha (awe-inspiring), Wat Arun, Reclining Buddha, a longboat ride along the Choaphaya River, and China Town. Nikki shared his knowledge of the area, the sites, the people, and the history. He is outgoing and enthusiastic and he took good care of us. We enjoyed the day immensely and would absolutely recommend a tour with Nikki!

AMAZING TRIP, AMAZING PEOPLE From the moment I arrived in Bangkok everything was perfect! I was met at the airport by my group leader, who was friendly and put me at ease straight away. Nothing was too much thought out the trip and he was always checking in on everyone to ensure they where ok and if he could do anything to make their trip even better. The accommodation through out the whole tour was really good! My fav of all was Khao Sok national park, you literally wake up on floating bungalows to the most amazing views ever! The best thing about this trip was there was no hidden extras! All the activities where included and we got more meals than I expected included too. The private speedboat trip in Koh Phi Phi was the highlight for me! Thank you Intro Travel and Jay for such an amazing experience and I can’t wait to do Bali next year with you!

I did the Thai Intro 18 day trip back in January this year and absolutely loved it. I booked the trip about 2 months before I left and was so excited so I had high expectations and I definitely wasn’t let down. All of the emails and communications I received from the guys at INTRO were great so I knew they were going to be organised and make the trip fun. I travelled on my own but I felt like I was just travelling with a bunch of my mates, the group got on so well and our group leader, Laura, did a great job of getting us to mingle together from the start. I saw some amazing things and it was the trip of a lifetime, I’ve got a trip booked to do the Bali Intro next because I loved it so much! Cannot recommend these guys enough!

We visited Bangkok in February and we booked an 8 hour private tour with Apple. Everything was very professional from booking the tour, correspondence with the office and execution of the tour. First, you have to except the philosophy of the company - you have to have your wish list prepared in advance. We started the day a little bit different like the others. Our 3 year old son got a mild allergy in the morning and we asked our guide Apple if we can visit the hospital first. She immediately organized everything. We went with Apple to private hospital which was, by the way, the best modern hospital which I ever saw. Luckily everything was ok with our son, so we continued with the tour. We visited Grand Palace which is really the best attraction in Bangkok. Apple guided us through the complex with interesting explanation for us. We went for lunch to nearby Navy club with good Thai dishes and affordable prices. We continued with traditional long tail boat ride. In the end Apple also answered all our questions about modern Thailand. Also the controversial ones. Me and my wife are working as tour guides in our country, so we can confirm excellent work of our guide Apple. Thank you Apple! You fulfilled our expectations.

3 stars are for Dui, who was really knowledgeable and great with photo-taking. Personally though, I was disappointed by the markets and felt the long journey there wasn’t worth it. As it’s quiet at the moment, stall holders were really pushy and all sold almost exactly the same tourist-y stuff- We were hoping for a more local experience which we unfortunately didn’t get. I’d also like to add a disclaimer for tourists who seek out more ethical trips as this is something we wish we knew in advance: we found it quite distressing seeing so many animals used as photo props, such as snakes which seemed at the very least to have been de-fanged and were repeatedly trying to escape, as well as slow loris’ which were basically catatonic and being kept awake during the day (they’re nocturnal animals!! And a protected species!). Ultimately, while Dui was a really good guide, I’d opt for a different tour with him knowing what I know now.
