Full description

This is a 3-hour experience in Bangkok, built around Wat Pho, Tuk tuk and Phra Sumen Fort. It is run by Around Bangkok Tours, 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.

Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples sit side by side across Japan and the etiquette differs slightly: at a shrine, bow at the torii, rinse hands and mouth at the water basin, then bow twice, clap twice, bow once at the hall; at a temple, no clapping, hands together, and incense if it is offered. Photography is fine outside and usually not inside halls. Zen meditation sessions, zazen, are taught at several Kyoto and Tokyo temples in 30 to 60 minute sittings with the posture explained; a shukubo temple stay adds the morning service and vegetarian shojin ryori. Shoes come off at every hall.

The price covers english speaking guide, Tuk Tuk Ride and One bottled drinking water per person. It does not cover Entrance tickets for Wat Pho, Hotel pick up and drop off, Food and drinks and Personal Expense, 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.

Around Bangkok Tours sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Around Bangkok Tours before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Wir hatten das große Vergnügen, eine Tuk-Tuk-Tour durch Bangkok mit Kelly zu buchen, und sind absolut begeistert! Kelly ist eine fantastische Guide, spricht perfekt Deutsch und hat uns mit ihrem enormen Wissen über Bangkok, die Kultur und die Tempel beeindruckt. Das Besondere an der Tour war der absolute VIP-Service: Kelly hat einen eigenen Fahrer, der uns bei jedem Stopp punktgenau begleitet hat. Sobald wir fertig waren, reichte ein kurzer Anruf von Kelly, und das Tuk-Tuk stand sofort wieder bereit – wir mussten absolut nirgendwo warten. Das war ein stressfreies Erlebnis auf höchstem Niveau!

We had the pleasure of exploring Bangkok with Kao, and it was by far one of the best tours we've ever done. She took us around the city's main sights by tuk-tuk, but what made the experience truly special was her. Kao is incredibly kind, caring, patient, and attentive. She especially took the time to answer my son's many questions, making him feel included throughout the tour. It never felt like a typical guided tour, it felt like spending the day with a friend or even family. She made us feel so welcome, and we genuinely felt like we had found family in Bangkok. Thank you, Kao, for this unfor

Kelly was very nice and look after us . We saw a big Buddha and even fed turtles . Having said that the tour it self doesn’t allow you to see that much due to the fact that not always you can stop and see the monuments . But overall good trip thank you

Great way to see the sights of the Old Town. We had a very entertaining tour with Kelly. She is very knowledgeable about the history and culture of Bangkok. We saw lots of interesting sights and getting around in a tuk tuk was fun. I would recommend this tour if you only have a short time in Bangkok.

Die Tour war super und absolut zu empfehlen. Eine ausgewogene Mischung zwischen fussläufig, Tuk Tuk und Boot - wobei fußläufig sehr gering bzw. in Absprache war. Kelly macht ihren Job von Herzen, mit sehr vielleicht Fach- und Allgemeinwissen, ohne auf die Uhr zu schauen und in fantastischen Deutsch. Sie zeigte uns auch noch einen Michelin-Street-Food in Chinatown und war noch mit uns Essen. Anschließend hat sie uns - nach 6 Stunden - mit ihrem Tuk Tuk Fahrer noch da hin gebracht wo wir hin wollen - in unser Hotel. Danke Kelly - Du hast uns einen unvergesslichen Tag in Bankok beschert.

Kelly war sensationell. Vom ersten Kontakt mit der Absprache welches Tuk Tuk wir gerne hätten über das pünktliche Treffen bis hin zur Tour und Nachbereitung. Es war ein sehr herzlicher Austausch und eine interessante Führung. Empfehlen wir sehr gerne weiter!

Unsere Tuk-Tuk-Tour durch Bangkok mit Guide Gao war einfach großartig! Sie war super freundlich, hat sehr gut Deutsch gesprochen und die gesamte Tour auf Deutsch geleitet. Sie hat uns viele schöne Spots gezeigt, all unsere Fragen beantwortet und sogar super viele Fotos von uns gemacht (Fotos waren natürlich freiwillig). Die Abholung hat reibungslos geklappt, sogar außerhalb des eigentlichen Treffpunkts. Auch Extrawünsche, wie ein zusätzlicher Toilettenstopp, waren überhaupt kein Problem. Der Fahrer ist sehr sicher gefahren und wir haben uns die ganze Zeit gut aufgehoben gefühlt. Insgesamt ein

Kelly war eine sehr freundliche und sehr gut deutsch sprechende Reiseleiterin, die uns umfassend informiert und alle weiteren Fragen eben auch beantworten konnte. Darüber hinaus konnte sie uns wertvolle Tipps für den weiteren Aufenthalt in der Stadt gehen.

Wir waren von der Tour und unserem Guide Gao begeistert. Sie hat super deutsch gesprochen und uns sehr viel über die Thailands erzählt. Besonders toll fand mein Teenager Sohn das Tuk Tuk fahren. Es ist die Wat Pho Besichtigung inbegriffen, aber ich muss sagen ein Tempel reichte auch. Dafür verbringt man auch Zeit am Blumenmarkt und in Chinatown. Man bekommt in 3-4 Stunden einen super Einstieg für Bangkok. Absolute Empfehlung

The price does not cover entrance tickets for wat pho (300 thb/person, the customers could pay upfront), hotel pick up and drop off, food and drinks and personal expense. Everything it does cover is listed in full on this page, so if something is not on that list, budget for it separately.
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. Shoes come off in every building with a Buddha image, so slip-ons save time. Sit with your feet pointing away from the Buddha and do not climb on any statue for a photo.
