Golden palaces, floating markets, majestic porcelain-laid spires…you've never seen a capital city quite like Bangkok.

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.

We used I Asia Thailand (we used them last year) and we rented a van with guide Woody and driver. We requested Woody after good comments and feedback. We did a 8 hour day trip and they were punctual, dressed well, excellent English and very informative. We started from Patong and made our way north before stopping for lunch and then east road back to the south to the many view points. The van was clean with great aircon and wifi!!!. We also had our own hand sanitiser and also wipes throughout the day. I would suggest and recommend I Asia Thailand to any family and friends. We would happily use their services again!

Ms Nok was a lovely tour guide, very pleasant and spoke good English and accommodated well. We had a wonderful time visiting all the temples in the itinerary and you get ample time learning about them from Ms Nok and photo-taking time for each. The reclining Buddha was stunning and enormous in size! Take note that lunch is not included in this package, only bottled water, so bring cash as Nok the guide suggested a few local places and well worth it!

We booked the crawl last week (friday 10/1/2020) for five of us It was a disaster It was a walking street pub crawl, but they changed to another street in the last minute. They sent the location map without hte name of the pub and we had to look around for morethan 1 hour to find the place ( after repeated email messages) the phone number they gave was not answering. In the end they send us to a bar which had less than 10 seats .They gave us each one shot of Sambuca- only if we buy one drink each. From there they sent to another bar in the same street and same experience. I had been to the pubcrawls in Bali, London,and Berlin.. it was great. But his Pattaya crawl was a great dissappointment and I will not reccomend it to any one

We did Maliwan’s cooking class today and it was amazing! What a great experience to do while in Thailand. The first part of the class was going to the market and that was just incredible. We learned so much and had great fun. We cooked 3 entrees and 1 dessert dish...soooo good! This was a definite highlight of the trip. It is a very well organized tour and very happy we did this one.

I spent ages looking for a good food tour for my boyfriend's birthday (he's a real foodie, so this wasn't an easy task) and I ended up going with this tour after seeing the itinerary and positive reviews. We had our tour yesterday and I'm so glad that we picked this one! Our tour started with a short boat ride down to the market and ended with us sampling some local fruits and desserts. Our guide, Nutth, was very knowledgeable and had an obvious passion for Thai food and it's prominent role in Thai culture, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We sampled a variety of authentic dishes from places we would never have discovered on our own. They were also able to accommodate my dietary requirements easily, which was a relief. This was such a great tour and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for an insight into authentic Thai cuisine (and, as other reviews have mentioned, make sure you arrive hungry!).

May, our local guide is fantastic. She was very kind to pick us up at our hotel. We quickly hit it off and chatted about Bangkok during our tour. May took us to places that are off the beaten path to see the real Bangkok. We had a marvelous local Thai lunch by the river. May wanted to show us food that her grandma made for her. Totally authentic Thai food. Besides the Thai puppet show, she took us to see a 200 years old temple that is being restored. No tourists, just two of us. We felt very privileged to see her hometown. May took great care of us and even dropped us off at the next meeting point for our second tour. We appreciate her thoughtfulness and friendliness. Amazing recommended places from her. We felt her genuine friendship. Gave us a really warm feeling. Thanks so much, May. Sincerely appreciated.

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.

I'm writing this a little late, but I was looking back at photos of my trip (actually in December 2018) and realized I had missed a review on this tour. This should tell you how good it was! This food tour was amazing! There was great explanation about the food preparation as well as the history of the city - and most importantly it was all delicious. Mod was a fantastic guide and I'd highly recommend to anyone looking for a true local experience!
