Full description

This is a 4-hour experience from Bangkok, built around River boat, Wat Paknam Phasi Charoen and Wat Arun. It is run by EM JOURNEY CO.,LTD, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Japanese food tours work because the best places are small, unmarked and full of regulars, and a guide who orders for you opens them. An izakaya crawl covers yakitori, sashimi, karaage and the local pours of sake, shochu and highballs across three or four counters in an evening; a ramen walk explains the broths, tonkotsu, shoyu, miso and shio, and the regional styles. Most places seat eight to twelve and tours run six to eight guests for that reason. Vegetarians should say so when booking, because dashi stock is fish and hidden in almost everything; halal-certified options exist but are fewer.

The price covers Transportation by long-tail boat and crossing boat, Transportation by tuk-tuk during the tour, Entrance fee at Wat Arun, Food tasting and Licensed English speaking guide. It does not cover Hotel drop-off and Gratuities, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Wutthakat. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with EM JOURNEY CO.,LTD before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Our guide Koh was very professional and relaxed. He looked after us very well. He made sure we got the most out of every moment. The tour included more than we expected and we experienced more than we could have by ourselves.

Annie was a perfect guide. She met us at the designated spot with a big smile and cheerful greeting. She was very knowledgeable about her country and gave us history behind every stop we made. She engaged with all of our transportation drivers with good cheer. We had a lot of laughs along the way as she had us sampling so many foods at the night market that we had to stop eating!! Loved spending our time with her and would highly recommend her for this tour or any tour that you can book with her.

This tour was amazing as it was well planned out and at a pace that was enjoyable so we could take it all in without feeling rushed. It was worth every cent we paid and would do it again in a heartbeat as it was so much fun. The combination of sailing along canals in a long-tail boat and eventually riding in a tuk-tuk to take in the major sites of Bangkok was a total thrill. Ko our guide was a total delight, he was both knowledgable and such a wonderful guy who made sure we were comfortable at all times even buying us a small snack along the way in the food market. This is an experience not to

Incredible tour of a real-life Bangkok and, therefore, very worth it! Guide Annie made the tour even more special by telling stories, responding to the group's requests and sharing all her knowledge with us. She was a true host and took care of everything to make me feel comfortable during the itinerary, in addition to taking me to taste the delights of local cuisine. I highly recommend this tour!

Shoulders and knees covered, for men and women, and no ripped jeans, vest tops or leggings; the Grand Palace turns people away at the gate and hires out sarongs.
