Fantastic trip and very informative. Lunch was great and the waterfall good fun. Our guide Snake was great and very chatty. The transport was extremely comfortable, and definitely needed as it was such a long journey from Bangkok. Would highly recommend!!!

This tour was an all-day tour that went for close to 14 hours. Hotel pick-up was on time at 6:30 am where we met our guide Nan, she was exceptionally knowledgeable about the tour locations, spoke fantastic English and answered all of our questions. Joey, the driver, made sure we got to each place and managed the Bangkok traffic with ease. It was a big day for Joey driving us to each of the locations (Bridge over the River Kwai, Death Railway, Hellfire Pass, and Erawan Waterfalls). The falls were a little bit disappointing but were still a relief from the unrelenting heat.

Our tour was Best of Bangkok in a Day, from 8 am until 4:30 pm. Our guide was Vella and our driver Mr P. The driver and vehicle were fine. No complaints. However this tour is predominantly a walking tour not a car tour. We visited all the sights as advertised and they were all worth seeing. The main problem was our tour guide who constantly walked over 20 meters ahead of us. We often lost sight of her and didn’t know where she was. We asked her to tell us where she was going and her response was don’t worry I know where you are. That is unacceptable. We paid for a guided tour not to play hide and seek with a tour guide. The other issue was her lack of concern about the heat. We’ve travelled to over 55 countries many of which are tropical. We know how important it is to hydrate and take frequent breaks. It was 35 degrees Celsius with a 41 degree heat index on the day of our tour. We walked over 7.2 km in that heat. The only water provided to us was one bottle each at the beginning of the day. We had to repeatedly ask for a water break and she only gave us one grudgingly. We even had to ask her to allow us to find some shade as she preferred to give her lecturers standing in the full heat of the sun. Absolutely no consideration was given to our well being. In summary we were rushed through the sights and our tour ending 2 hours earlier than expected. That was not our plan as we had allotted the full day for the tour. Rushing through the sights, not allowing adequate time for photos, or breaks from the heat led us to believe that she shortened the tour so she could go home early. We were very disappointed in how we were treated by this company and would not recommend them. Sorry

The trip was really interesting and enabled us to see a wide variety of Chiang Rai’s most amazing sights including the black house, the blue and white temples and goddess of mercy. The driver made us feel very safe and our guide was lovely, informative and very knowledgeable, answering all our questions. Lunch was in the most beautiful setting and very tasty. Can’t recommend this trip enough. The best way to get to know Chiang Rai and surroundings.

You can for sure by a cheaper tripp. But not a better one! We were picked up at our hotel! The hole day was very good organised. And all inkluded. After the tripp we taken to our hotel. No meeting point. Very nice and good guide in Sam!

Such a beautiful part of the world and so much history. Must do and see!! Loved doing it as a private tour as well. Note was an excellent guide.

Tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, he had so much interesting facts and information to do with the history of hellfire pass the death railway and the waterfalls. The tour guide was also extremely nice and helpful. Would highly recommend

Peter our guide met us in the hotel.lobby at 6.30 am.we took a mini van (very comfortable) to our first stop which was the cemetery of the soldiers who died building the railway. Then in to the bridge itself.Peter was very informative,telling us stories and giving us lots of info and taking photos of us. Next stop was the Erawan Waterfall which we went and swam in. Then on to the Hellfire pass...again peter was very knowledgeable about it all. The trip back to Bangkok was then 3 or so hours.we took this opportunity to have a good rest after an long and enjoyable day.

Wow what an an amazing private tour. Todays tour Was up there with a number 1 tour that we did in Burma 6 years ago. Nan picked up up at the Century Park Hotel in Thailand at 6:30am. She was bang on time time and introduced herself and her driver and then we set off in a luxury 8 seater air con vehicle with just me and the Mrs as it was a private tour. We visited everything that was promised to us on our itinerary and Nan hand us all of the way. Nan was informative, knowledgeable and provided and professional service throughout the tour. She was friendly and we had such great fun in her company. We learnt so much on this tour, not least of of all because it was emotional as my wife’s late father was a war veteran in the Burma war campaign. The water falls were a break so as to admire the beauty and to cool done with a refreshing dip. Just enough time to capture some photos up to level 5. All in all Nan provided us with an extremely well balanced tour, it was not rushed and yet no one stop was to long either. Whilst hot and a long lengthy day, we were well looked after with water, a very comfy air con roomy vehicle and to top it off; a superb lunch finished off with the sticky rice and mango which is a must. Finally, we arrived back at the hotel about 7:30pm. Nan, you get a 10/10 for providing us with an excellant tour today. Well done and we certainly recommend your tour to others. PS: please note this tour does involve some steep inclines so we would warn other that you do need a reasonable level of fitness. i.e a fitness level of around 3/5. And gilts the tour as expected was hot and the journey time there and back were long,

We had an amazing experience on the Temples of Chiang Rai tour! Our guide was fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly accommodating. He made the entire tour so much more enjoyable with his deep understanding of the history and his fun facts about each temple. We also got to try the best local snacks along the way, which was a nice touch. The temples were absolutely breathtaking, each with its own unique beauty, and the museum was definitely worth visiting as well. We learned so much, and the whole experience felt much richer than exploring on our own. This tour is an absolute must-do when you’re in Chiang Rai! Highly recommended!

This tour was a great way to get into some of the sad histories of Thailand as well as some beautiful views. Coming from the US and Germany, my partner and I had a pretty limited view about WWII in the Pacific. (It helped that the two of us had just been to Australia and visited the war museum in Canberra, so the Aussie losses in the war were fresh in our minds.) Our tour guide, Preecha, was super knowledgable and did his best to make an enjoyable day out of a brutal story. And, once we said that we enjoy local food and to support local businesses, he made sure we got to try the most important snacks (melon, rice cakes, coconut ice cream, you name it, we had a bite.) The Death Railway is still in use today, with a few trains a day on the weekends. We booked during the week so we missed this, but it was still so interesting to walk along the bridge. The waterfall was an excellent palate cleanser between the two other activities; the water is even more gorgeous than in the pictures, and it is one of the few waterfalls where you are allowed to swim if you desire! we didn't do more than stick our feet in to say hello to the carp that live there. We hiked up a few extra levels instead. We had an awesome time there. The final stop was to see the Hellfire Pass, which included a walk through an information centre with first hand accounts in video of the POW experience for Aussie captives. We had a short walk to the memorial on site after that, and the knowledge that we were walking through what had once been solid rock was harrowing, to say the least... especially considering January is the dry, cold season in Thailand, and at 32° C, my partner and I worked up a heck of a sweat just walking. All in all we had a very good time, and I could not recommend this tour enough if you are interested in this part of Thailand's history.

Spectacular, emotional and very highly rated. The tour was amazing, long day but well worth it. Very knowledgeable guide and very friendly

Incredible tour with the most beautiful views. Our tour guide and driver were super accommodating and our guide was great! The van was very luxurious with reclining seats.

Seeing the pass and surrounding war sites was very moving and only right to show your respect. The tour itinerary covers all the critical places and the Thai Burma Railway museum well presented and highly informative. It's a long day but we'll well worth it. The tour van is first class and extremely comfortable

This was a really great tour. We wanted to get out of Bangkok and do something different. It's about a 3 hour drive each direction so bring something to do on the drive. The roads are very bumpy so I wouldn't recommend trying to read. The first couple of stops were about the Death Railway. It is pretty depressing, but an important piece of history. We stopped for lunch at 1430- so bring snacks, because it's a long time between departure and lunch. The lunch was phenomenal and so much better than expected. The waterfalls were a nice spot, but unfortunately we got there a little late and they would not let us go past level 5. We had just enough time to take a quick swim before they closed. The guide was great and made sure everyone was comfortable and had adequate restroom breaks. It was a very long day- 0645 departure and we arrived back at our hotel in Bangkok at 2000.
