- Some travel experiences are just beyond description. They are too good to even begin to put into words - and yet, I must, because that is how the algorithm works!!
We used BKK Tours for two trips during our stay in Bangkok. One to Ayutthaya and the other to Kanchanaburi on the Kwai. Michiel was really helpful with arranging our bookings, and he and Air gave us extra information when visiting the Grand Palace by ourselves.
We were guided by Air, with Mr A as our driver.
Air and Mr A made us feel incredibly welcome from the second we stepped into the (incredibly posh!) minivan.
Mr A’s driving was smooth and comfortable throughout. He was quick to provide fresh chilled waters and cooling towels whenever coming into the vehicle from the Thai heat.
Air was an AMAZING guide, one of the most genuine people we’ve had the pleasure to meet. Air really cares about her clients, and wants them to enjoy every second of their time with her. And we certainly did!
On some trips we’ve been on around the world, guides have expected tips and not shown gratitude. Air and Mr A were totally different - they showed genuine thanks, which really touched us.
We really enjoyed hearing about the philosophy and religion of Buddhism from Air. She offered such clear explanations and shared so many stories. It gave me a special connection to Buddhism and the Buddhist philosophy in a way I really didn’t expect from a tour!
The tours themselves were excellent value, given their length (9 and 13 hours). And Air was quick to offer snacks and drinks (the coconut pancakes she bought for us were a food highlight of the trip!!). The lunch locations were both wonderful too.
What I am about to say may seem strange, but is something I’ve never experienced before in such a helpful way! Air always let us know when we were near toilets that were clean and convenient. I always have a worry (probably because I’m autistic) that I will need the loo and not feel comfortable saying so. Air really took away any of that pressure.
For Air / BKK Tours alone, we would return to Bangkok! It was like meeting an old friend, or someone we connected with in a past life, rather than a tour guide and driver! Thank you!read moreread lessBeachedExplorers29 Nov 2024 - We just wanted to say that Nes did an amazing job as tour guide for us on Sunday. We thoroughly enjoyed every minute. She explained beautifully the Thai culture and the history of all of the sites we went to. We really enjoyed the unexpected experiences like feeding the fish in the canals and getting a blessing from a monk. We will definitely recommend your company and Nes as tour guide to our family, friends and colleagues.read moreread lessBangkok Highlights tour by minivanAmy26 Nov 2024
- Air treated my son and I to the most memorable experience touring Bangkok (mother and son on holiday). She was knowledgeable and informative, ensuring she treated us royally and really looked after us. Air has high energy and wanted to ensure we had the best time, which we did. We felt very lucky to have her as our tour guide. Would absolutely recommend Air and BKK Tours.read moreread lessBangkok Highlights tour by local transportGreat T.25 Nov 2024
- I seldom leave reviews but felt I needed to after having such an exceptional experience with Air @ BKK tours. Her knowledge and experience were excellent! Learning about Thai history firsthand with a Thai tour guide was wonderful. The itinerary was great and hit all the must see highlights of Bangkok.read moreread lessAngela R.18 Nov 2024
- I have never left a review for any tour I have ever taken. I've traveled all over the world with hundreds of tours. But I wanted to leave a review for BKK tours. Air was our tour guide over a period of 2 days. She is the best tour guide I have ever encountered. She was thoughtful, knowledgeable, and went way beyond what was expected of her. I have encountered many good guides, but she was absolutely a gem. If you want a memorable experience in Bangkok, Thailand, BKK Tours is the place you want to book any and all tours. Thank you Air.read moreread lessBangkok Highlights tour by minivanRita S.18 Nov 2024
- We had a great time on this tour. The pace was good as we had a few older folks in the tour group. All the sites (including the ones that we wanted to remove from the tour but kept them in upon Michiel's recommendation) were interesting. Air was very accommodating and knowledgeable, providing lots of current and historical information along the tour.read moreread lessHistorical Ayutthaya tourEW04 Nov 2024
- We did several tours and it was fun. The railway market was really awesome and so was the floating market. We picked up some great bargains a souvenirs again thanks to Petch’s assistance in negotiating a great price. She is a wonderful guide. Thank you so much for making our time so special. Very friendly and careful driver. Water and cold towels after each stop were provided. Very comfortable transport as well.read moreread lessMarkets and Tham Khao Bin cave tourLesley23 Oct 2024
