This was a great way to spend a Saturday in Bangkok, exploring the areas of Sathorn and heading towards the rivers, back alleys ways and the art district. Our tour guide, Anne was super sweet and we really enjoyed learning about the history of Bangkok. Discovering and observing the street art was really interesting. Another great part was finding tiny cafes mixed into these streets and observing how people spend their day. Highly recommend this tour :) Thank you Anne!Mr R

Our tour guide Anne was awesome! She kept us fed, watered and informed everywhere we went. I have lived in Bangkok for a long time now, but discovered a cool little part of the city that I had never seen before.

After living in Bangkok for quite a long time, it was so nice to discover some hidden places in the city, that you would never come across with by yourself. The tour was greatly organized and well balanced: it’s pace, number of stops, distance between locations, the hidden pathways, selected sightseeings, decent restaurant and cafes , everything created a brilliant impression at the end. The diversity of Bangkok never stops amazing, this tour will give you a chance to experience it yourself.
