Private Tour: Bangkok's Grand Palace Complex and Wat Phra Kaew

My Rating

Tour guide was very knowledgeable and quickly guided us through the hordes of people to quieter spots where he could expalin everything without having to shout to be heard. He also knew all the good photo points. Be sure to take a hat on a hot day as the heat becomes unbearable as the complex is walled in and gets no wind. We actually cut our tour short as we could no longer take the heat.

My Rating

This tour was not what I expected - very tourist orientated. Loud, noisy, overbearing people pushing their wares. Dirty water everywhere. Only saw 1 boat selling fresh produce which was just some overripe tomatoes. You have to pay to use the toilets which are just holes in the ground - only after we refused to use them did they show us to 1 flush toilet. Although I appreciate the work that goes into the woodcarving - I found that part of the tour boring and a waste of time.
