Things to do in Bangkok, Thailand: The Best City Tours

May 19, 2021 Margarita Chappel

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.

Tony was a great guide for this tour. He knew a lot about each place we visited, and he had it timed perfectly for sunset at Wat Huay Pla Kang and then for the Blue Temple's illumination. We arrived at the clock tower about ten minutes before the music and light show started. Tony actually created a short video and sent it to us! We highly recommend this tour with Tony!

I participated in a free walking tour with Mr. Ot on my own. He is very nice and patient. He has shown me many important sights, told a lot about Thai culture, tradition, but also about local food. I was even allowed to try a lot myself. I definitely recommend this tour with Mr. Ot. Thank you for this opportunity.

Excellent and informative tour of the major sites in Bangkok. The tour was very well-paced, seeing a lot but not overly exerting. Our guide Gimao (Chutima Nawsoon) was awesome! She's very knowledgeable about all the sites and general Thai history and also very fun! We learned a lot about general Thai culture from her and conversation was flowing and easy. I highly recommend asking for her to guide your tour.

It was very interesting to see the sites of the old capital of Siam. My tour guide from Mam Holidays was Miss Siriwaritsara Petcharapan. Siri went well above and beyond the scope of a tour guide. She was a wealth of information about Ayutthaya. I would recommend the tour and Siri to everybody.

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.
