About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 348kerrih0 contributionsGreat TourWell worth doing this tour. Could not do Big Buddha as it is still closed due to unsafe land conditions. Our guide Fa was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of information about the different areas we visited.Written 22 March 2025
- Voyage187282656000 contributionsPhuket old town and temple visitA well-organised trip with about the right mount of time at each stop. Daisy (our guide) was friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgable. Transport good. Driver (John?) drove safely through torrential rain storm on return journey.Written 20 March 2025
- Philwym0 contributionsA bit disappointing.A bit disappointing, although not the fault of the tour company. Because of a recent land slip, there was no access to the Big Buddha. On the plus side the Karon viewpoint was great as was Wat Chalong. However I wasn’t too impressed with the viewpoint over Phuket, apart from the monkeys, and there was little in Phuket Old Town that interested me.Written 20 March 2025
- jancS7380IL0 contributionsVery disappointingThis was one of the most disappointing tour I have been, and I have travelled overseas every year for the last 30 years, so that is saying something. If you only want to be dropped off at places and left to your own devices, it may suit. Our guide had no microphone, a very tiny voice wand when she could be heard, spoke so fast with an accent that was very difficult to understand. The little information I gleaned was something that I could find out on Google in 5 minutes. No insights from the local! Such a waste of time and money.Written 17 March 2025
- Fozzie440 contributionsThis tour was one of the highlights of my visitI really enjoyed this tour!!! Daisy was an amazing guide. She was full of knowledge and information. The stops were the perfect amount of time. Daisy was helpful assisting with photos. I also enjoyed the moments we had to process all the information with the music and air conditioning on in the comfortable van. Huge shout out to our driver too!!!Written 16 March 2025
- Dterry1820 contributionsEnjoyable, interesting, and a great way to spend an afternoon.My wife and I took this tour yesterday (12th March) in the afternoon. We were picked up on time by our guide, the wonderful Daisy. We were taken by an air-conditioned mini van to a couple of viewpoints, Chalong Temple, and finally to Old Phuket. The length of time at each location was perfect, as was the length of the tour itself. Our guide Daisy made everyone feel welcome and was very friendly. She was very knowledgeable and informative about each location. We thought the tour was very good value for money, interesting, and just to right length, in terms of time. We would both thoroughly recommend it.Written 12 March 2025
- claireh7620180 contributionsGreat way to see several must see attractions in a short space of time.Well thought out trip with just the right amount of time at each stop. It would of have just been nice to have more information about the temples. Cheerful and friendly guide though.Written 10 March 2025
- GoPlaces572702596610 contributionsExcellentThe tour was excellent. We had an air conditioned bus and a fair amount of time for pictures. Got close to some monkeys and visited the temples. Open markets was fun with good foodWritten 9 March 2025
- velos20250 contributionsHalf day Phuket tour with Sun Leisre WorldThis half day city tour is definitely a must do. We got to see the amazing views of Phuket, visit the largest Wat in Phuket and do some shopping. Our guide and driver were friendly and full of information about the places we visited. The best part was a visit to Old Quarter Phuket where the shopping was great with prices being far lower than the markets in Phuket.Written 7 March 2025
- Road266636800430 contributionsDaisy is the best tour guideDaisy was the best tour guide we could have asked for. Her knowledge on the local culture and passion for Thailand made the trip so memorable. Even though we were unable to see big Buddha due to the landslides, we didn’t feel like we missed out on anything. A highly recommended tour.Written 6 March 2025

- jaypH6939IB0 contributionsEnjoyed the Phuket City TourExcellent tour guide. She took us around in a van and took care of us. She explained important tourist spots and, in the end, let us wander around a market. We were glad we went on this tour.Written 1 March 2025
- Vladimir J0 contributionsAverage city tourThe Phuket city tour was pretty average, just a few viewpoints and standard stops, nothing too exciting. The real highlight was our guide, Daisy. She was friendly, helpful, and eager to share information, which made the experience more enjoyable. Without her, the tour would have felt quite basic.Written 27 February 2025

Our guide Pat was excellent and very knowledgeable. He took the time to explain each temple in detail along with structures between temples. Pat also recommend several shows and attractions that we might be interested in seeing.
The best tour guide ever!

This was everything we hoped it would be. Some reviews said it felt rushed, but that's what we wanted, the flexibility to stay in one place a little longer or move along to the next more quickly. Our guide spoke amazing English and her love for her beautiful country and its customs was brilliant. She was willing to add on stops that we hadn't originally planned for and was at our complete disposal. It was the perfect introduction to our vacation in Bangkok and I recommend it for anyone who wants to preview the city and sample the culture before diving head in to longer excursions.

We visited the Three Best Temples in Bangkok with “Sonny” who was one of the best guides we had during our week in Thailand. He was very knowledgeable about Buddhism and also about the history of the temples. He was very friendly and respectful. My daughter and I highly recommend him for anyone interested in learning the story of Buddhism in Thailand.

Hopefully others get a better experience than we did. The tour guide and helper were ok, but the hiccup over start time was a bummer. We had booked the tour for 10am. Their email the previous night said 8:30am. They reiterated twice that it was 8:30am and not 10am (yet the website still showed 10am). When we got to the start point on time, we were told that it would be 10am! Then at 9:30am they told us to take a ferry to another location! We protested as we had no idea what to do and a helper was sent to take us. Anyways, we saw three locations and finished the tour. All in all this tour is extremely expensive for what it covers and the service it provides. Hopefully, this miscommunication was a one time thing and not typical. Hope they will fix their website soon.

Visit the 3 temples as planned, the guide in French, nickelle! On the other hand, the price is exaggerated (840 euros for 4 adults and 5 children) for only 3 temples (including entrances). We did not get the grand palace because it seems that we booked very early and that "it was not included in the price" according to the organizer. I asked for a partial refund two weeks ago, no return to date.

We feel we were way over paid for what we got with this tour compared to other tours in Thailand. We were picked up at our hotel early. Our guide spoke good English and the driver was very friendly. We first quickly drove through Chinatown which as 2 minutes from the Sheraton where we were staying. Would have been nice to have a quick stop there. Nope. Then we quickly drove through the flower market which was pretty but again. We should have stopped. Then after about a a short drive we were at the first temple. Remember this tour is in the afternoon so it is oppressively hot, we were given a tutorial for a couple minutes and told we had 5 minutes in the temple and then meet our guide outside. The driver Mr. Pop was promptly there to pick us up. Second Temple of the lying down Buddha was crowded and rushed. The grounds is very Zen like and we wished we would have had more time there. The third temple across the bridge was a pagoda that was to me kind of boring and extremely HOT! Then we were done and had a thirty minute ride back in traffic to our hotel. If you don’t mind spending $175 for 2 people to see 3 temples in maybe 3 hours including hotel pickup and drop off then go for it! Or maybe take a couple of taxi rides and spend $30 in entrance fees on your own. Oh and BYW the only water we got on the tour was the 2 bottles that came with the entrance to the last temple.

We took the private tour of the 3 temples plus the Royal Palace. Our tour guide was Pat and our driver was Mr Winny. We had an amazing, jam-packed day out and Pat was a fantastic tour guide. He was friendly, funny, knowledgeable and a David Bailey level photographer. His English was faultless and his organisational skills meant we were able to compress into 4 hours, the equivalent of 2 days of sightseeing. He kept us right with temple etiquette, organised tickets, got us to the front of queues and kept us safe. Pat also booked us an amazing Thai massage and Cabaret show (at a discount) for after the tour. We would give this experience 10 stars if we could. Also, thanks to Mr Whinny for navigating the crazy Bangkok traffic like a warrior.

Tour guide was honestly the highlight for me…. Hilarious and very knowledgeable. Temples were nice. But if u don’t want a guide and want to do it cheaper best to just grab a grab taxi and take u to each temple especially if ur in a group would be way cheaper.

Good afternoon
Thanks for appreciating our service and visiting with us, unfortunately you are reviewing a fully guided tours but reviewing best with grab taxi same experience, Once you do experience with guide you know where to go, you understand history of experience. however going by yourself also have certain cost benefits but do it once by yourself than review.
This is best to book via viator so your honest review should be your personal experience. thanks a lot for visiting us.

It was great to be met by the guide and driver at our hotel and dropped back at a convenient spot.
Having a guide and driver was very convenient, particularly given the large number of tourist buses at most venues.
We certainly got to see three of the main temples in Bangkok City. However, much of the information was repetitive, and could have been found from Google - a night-time tuk tuk tour was much more informative.
I think that there are cheaper options (this was more expensive than a four hour night time tuk tuk tour which included dinner).

We only had a few days in Bangkok and decided to book this tour at the last minute to "check off" as many places as we could. I'm glad we did! Cindy was an excellent guide - there's no way we would have been able to learn so much about the city and temples without her knowledge and detailed explanations. Thanks!
