Things to do in  Thailand

Koh adang is the most beautiful island in Thailand. the boat trip from Koh lipe to Phuket amazing got to see most islands on the east

Had a great experience with our tour guide Chu, collected us well on time and spent a very interesting day visiting the war graves, museums and Kwai bridge. Our guide was so polite and his English was excellent. Superb day seeing Thailand by car, train and boat. Would highly recommend this trio.

Start to finish we had the most perfect day. It combined everything you want to see into one seamless trip. We had beautiful weather, fantastic guides and really captured the beauty of Thailand. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Great vehicle and caring driver/tour guide. Very good if you don’t want to drive around Thailand or not sure where to go. Going to see big Buddha and the temple was great! Would question some of the stops such as the cashew nut factory was mostly a shopping stop and the gem factory was full of pushy sales staff.

It was nice having someone who could speak Thai, but would have been better Thai, but would have been better if the guide could speak more English. The guide was very nice though. The floating markets are closed so we couldn't go there or the gem market. Thailand is still trying to reopen after Covid but isn't there yet. Lunch was good.

English-speaking guide Mr A and driver Kuhn uthai were very professional, kind and gracious. Knows the history behind the temples and stories about the places we visited. Provided us tips about Bangkok and other interesting places to visit in Thailand. Able to find us authentic Thai lunch which are popular in Ayutthaya.

Kim was a fantastic guide, spoke good English and I enjoyed learning about Thailand from him. The car was lovely and he was very considerate, taking photos for me. 100% would recommend to others for a lovely day seeing Phuket

We were picked up in time by our driver and a really nice, competent and friendly female guide. We were only 5 people but that was good…the temples and the summer residence wie visited after a 2 hour drive were so amazing…one of our best trips in Thailand…strongly recommended.

Fantastic afternoon out learning about Bangkok culture. Our Guide Katu was very knowledgeable, friendly and answered all the questions we had. I think the only regret we had is not being able to see the reclining Buddha. The experience was unforgettable. Truly recommend this tour if you want to submerge into Thailand history

Definitely worth the trip! What a fun way to explore Maeklong Railway and Damneon Floating Market! Our guide, Kiwi, was super fun and knowledgeable. She did a great job on the bus keeping us engaged and sharing important information about our whereabouts and the history of Thailand and the two markets we explored. The ride there did take about an hour each way but on the way there we stopped halfway to a rest stop with clean bathrooms. I do fall asleep easily on long road trips so did get in a nap both on my way their and on the way back home. At the markets, it was non-stop exploring and eating. So many food vendors to try and so much great authentic food available from snacks (like Satay) to full entree dishes (like Pad Thai) to desserts (like Coconut Ice Cream). Bring cash to try everything! The guide shared that tourism is rising again so after two years of pandemic it’s great to have tourists and locals back again. Both the train and floating markets are so unique and special. It was so much fun getting to see it with my own eyes. What an incredible experience to be able to explore and see more of Thailand! Huge thanks to Kiwi and Apple for keeping us safe while having a blast!

Pick up was punctual, the guide was very efficient with good knowledge of the history and certainly kept us on our feet as everything is timed to meet the train. The war graves are kept immaculate by the thai people, the museum of the the war which encompassed pictures of prisoner of war camps gave you a true understanding of how difficult it was to survive in those difficult times. The boat ride to the bridge was wonderful and really set you up for the train ride as you come up by the river to meet the train. The train ride lasts about 1 and 1/2 hours with lots of sites to see, very picturesque. At the end when you get off you can walk back over the stilted bridge which is an amazing piece of engineering. Lunch like many guided trips is a buffet and this one was very good. It’s a full day with a lot of driving especially on the way back as you are further away due to the train trip. Mind you saying that if you want to see more of the real Thailand then it’s the trip for you.

Our tour guide Puma was so friendly and made the 1.5hr trip out go quickly as she told us about the park, the history of Thailand, and much more. It was so nice to have a solo tour where we didn't feel rushed and were able to ask questions. The walk through the park with a local was the highlight, passing through habitat for gibbons, waterfalls, local farms and learning about what the land can provide. Would highly recommend. Our tour guide, Puma, I particular was so nice, accomdating, and knowledgeable. It was a highlight of my trip to Thailand.

This tour is a really good way to see and explore Thailand, I would recommend it if you’re in Bangkok. Lin, our tour guide, was full of energy and very knowledgeable about Thai culture. She explained everything regarding the tour and also shared extra knowledge like other destinations worth visiting, the meaning behind the Thai flag, history of the monarchy and meanings of various Buddha symbols, which were all interesting. Lin was kind and confident and wanted to ensure we all had a good time. If you’re in Thailand for a limited amount of time and looking to tick a few tourist destinations, this is the best way to do it. Things like knowing what times to visit the Railway market in order to see the train are much simpler when you have a guide. Also accessing the floating market by boat was super cool and I don’t know if we would have experienced that had we chosen to go by ourselves We went with the group tour which had 6 people in total, a very comfortable group size. I don’t think choosing the private tour is necessary. The tour is quite unique with stop offs at the coconut sugar factory and salt farm, both quite interesting. This tour is for people that want to see and explore Thailand and not just to shop for souvenirs - although there are loads along the way!

Do not pass this trip by! It was the best trip we’d had in our 3 weeks of visiting Thailand. The day from start to finish was great and was very memorable. Picked up and dropped off at our hotel fresh drinks and snacks through the day, every staff member was friendly and attentive. Our tour guide was Goodies who just made the day that extra bit special! Fantastic locations to visit and snorkel I have never seen so many different types of fish! Each person had their own freshly packed mouth piece for the snorkel which we haven’t had on other trips. You are quite safe to leave your belongings on the boat and they also offer to help take photos of you and your friends/family using your camera. Felt that we had enough time in each area. Monkey island was fun to watch. The lunch was very tasty and great cocktails that you can buy as extras. It certainly was a day to remember!

Tipp (guide) and Pon (driver) were both utterly fantastic. This is my first trip to Thailand, and I wanted to get a good overview of both the Island as well as Thai culture. The places we visited were superb with some great views of scenery, beaches etc … and the Big Buddha & Temple were both awesome. Stopped off at a cashew factory which was a nice visit, and finished off in Phuket old town. Overall it was a thoroughly enjoyable 5.5 hours, I was taken care of incredibly well … with both Tipp and Pon wanting to be sure timings were ok. They gave me a great insight into Phuket, and I will talk about this tour to my friends back home and recommend it as a great first overview to see the Island. I’ll definitely be wanting to go back to Phuket Old Town to do some more exploring :-)

This was my favorite tour that I did during my two week trip in Thailand. Not only do you have the experience of a chef, but you also get to see the relationships he has with the local vendors. Dishes or explain for my historical perspective along with a taste perspective. This is a wonderful way to experience Thai cuisine beyond Pad Thai and the touristy night markets. Cannot recommend enough!

I like to visit places on my own but Doi Ithanon is about 90 min from Chiang Mai and not that easy to get to without a tour. But I am so happy I booked this tour! It was such a great experience. Two guides picked me up promptly at 8:30 at my hotel. Both so warm & friendly -- with a really fun sense of humor. I knew immediately that I was in great hands with them. Easy drive out of Chiang Mai -- the car is really nice & clean, and they are really thoughtful about stopping at clean restrooms and offering water. First stop — Wachirathan Waterfalls. Beautiful place to take some photos and enjoy the scenery. Next stop -- hiked the Pha Dok Siew Nature Trail. Local guide joined us. I did the hike easily in tennis shoes. Beautiful nature trail -- lots of greenery, more waterfalls. The guide does a really great job sharing stories about the local history & culture -- while also balancing the quiet and enjoying the nature around you. It's such a beautiful place to enjoy. Ended the hike at a coffee farm. My guide shared that this is one of the many government’s investments (Royal Projects) in this area — to grow coffee, avocados and other resources. (Later at the airport, I saw a sign for Royal Projects store and had such a better understanding and appreciation for what that meant). We had fresh coffee, and headed to a delicious lunch. Next stop: highest elevation in all of Thailand. It was cold! I couldn’t believe it. I’ve never felt cold temperatures here. My guide continued his storytelling which I won't spoil but was so much fun! Next stop: King & Queen’s pagodas (surrounded by beautiful gardens). Erected in honor of their 60th birthdays. Another beautiful place to take photos and take in the beautiful forest and elevation around you. Bought fresh berries & coffee beans at a market on the side of the road. The strawberries were delicious, and I'm excited to give the coffee beans as a souvenir to my loved ones when I get home. What a fun day! I would never have experienced Doi Inthanon like this on my own. We shared stories all day. Laughed together. I had time on my own to enjoy the surroundings and came home with so many great pictures captured. Incredible day and such fun with my guides! Highly recommend to others who are visiting Chiang Mai!

Visited Bangkok with my wife after a week in Phuket. The COVID administrative challenges were manageable to enter and exit Thailand. Eliana was an exceptional guide. We basically saw everything we wanted to see in Bangkok in about 8 hours to include lunch at a Michelin rated restaurant. Very well organized (based on a list of places we wanted to see). Eliana spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable about the history of the sites we visited. Highly recommend this tour company and especially Eliana!

I WISH I had pictures to share! This was an amazing trip, and our guide was just as amazing. The Summer Palace is beautiful, as are all of the Wats we visited. Our guide was so knowledgeable, and had so much history to share. I feel it gave me a deeper understanding of Thailand, it's history and culture. She answered all of our questions, and then some. Definitely worth every baht, and then some!! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

This was an excellent trip. As others have said, it is a LONG trip, but Chiang Rai is quite a distance from Chiang Mai so you have to expect it. The tour leaves early, we were picked up at 7:30am, and travelled for an our to the hot springs for a toilet break and shops for breakfast. Then it was on to the White Temple, which is very impressive. This is a new temple, 20 years old, and you can tell this from the decorations and setup. Lunch was nice, too much for just us. Then on to the Blue Temple which is very blue! Coconut ice cream is excellent. Then a market, not really our thing but it broke up the trip. Before visiting the northern most point of Thailand, due to Covid the border is closed but this does not impact the trip. Then its off tot he Golden Triangle for the boat ride, again due to Covid boarders are closed so the boat only stays on Thailand side of the border. Finally the long 4 hour trip back...broken with a break half way. We were back in Chiang Mai around 9pm. Our tour guide, Ms Susie, was excellent and its great to support local people during Covid and hear their stories. Our driver Mr Anthony was a good safe driver. Overall the guides were excellent and made our tour for us. As we were the only two on this tour we were told an extra charge for 800 bhat each, this was fine to pay and didn't bother us, however I did find it a little cheeky to ask as the tour was already one of the most expensive on Viator. Overall I would recommend this trip! Long day but you see loads and its very fun!!
