The cultural sites were interesting, but didn't give enough insight into the daily life and authenticity which we so much appreciate. However, the tour guide was very knowledgeable and fed us history until our brains couldn't take any more. It took her a day or two to learn to know us properly, as we were very different and had different wishes in regards to food and experiences compared to her other groups. But then she chose the perfect places for us. We loved Lalu and Sdok Kok Thom, Chanthaburi, Kraben Bay mangrove forest and, last but not least, our relaxing days on Ko Kood, where we've been spoiled from head to toe in our luxury hotel picked by the local agency. Brilliant service also on our way back. Drivers always on time, waiting at the ferry already. Travelling this way feels safe and yet informative. Having the benefit of a tour guide of your own, don't have to concentrate on traffic is certainly a perk which makes the journey so much more enjoyable.See more

We arrived Bangkok Oct 1& it was early morning by the time we got to the ***, a fab hotel. Later that morning we were off! For the next few dais we visited sites such as the Dawn Temple, took a long tail boat through the waterways of Bangkok, visited the ancient site of Ayutthaya etc. When we returned two weeks later, we were off to the Floating Markets & the River Kwai.See more
