Fantastic experience! Exactly what you might expect from a Buddhism guided tour. My guide, Kung, knew everything about Thailand history and Buddhism, answering all my questions . The two temples we visited weren't as big as Wat Arun or Wat Pho, but for me that was a positive side! The temples were almost empty, we had the whole place almost to ourselves! It was a fantastic opportunity to learn new things and dwelve more into Thailand's culture and the teachings of Buddhism. Thank you very much! To make the experience even better, after the end of the tour, stop by some family restaurant at the corner of the temple and order some Pad Thai for takeaway. Have it outside the restaurant, sitting by the road, watching the day unfurl slow. The bells ringing at the top of the temple made the afternoon magical.

We initially booked the tour with Moddy but it turned out we booked too late for some temples (after closing time), and as Moddy wasn’t available she managed to coordinate with Saravarint to take us over in the earlier slot..great team work! Saravarint was a great guide for us, taking us through more peaceful and enjoyable temples, which was very much appreciated and quite the opposite to our earlier experience with our self-driven tour of Grand Palace (very touristic and crowded). She explained to us a lot about Thai culture, buddhism and customs when in a temple. She adapted the tour on the fly based on our preferences, took us through the temples as if we were a local and at the end recommended some good restaurants to have dinner. Can highly recommend Saravarint as a guide and the tour itself! Make sure to book no later than 2:30pm to get the best out of the tour.

If you’re visiting Bangkok (or, for that matter, Thailand) and don’t know much about Buddhism, I highly recommend this tour and Sudarat. Buddhism is such an integral part of the life and culture of the Thai people, and you’ll have a much greater appreciation after this tour. Sudarat clearly explained the religion and its history, and expanded on our questions, answering questions we hadn't thought to ask, and adding in personal experiences. As a long term resident of Bangkok she also gave us much information about the city and country, their history and life here. We also enjoyed her easy-going manner and nice sense of humor.

I usually do not do reviews but my time with Saravarint was truly amazing! She is very knowledgeable and the most sweetest person. She customized my time with her and I had the best time. I will never forget my time and experience with her. I have some amazing pictures and hope to book more tours in the future. If you are looking for a genuine person she is the one to book!! 🙏💕

This visit was top notch! Araya is very friendly and knowledgeable. Her perspective on the various aspects of Buddhism and its impact on Thai culture was fascinating. I would highly recommend her for those looking for an insider understanding of this topics!!

Sudarat was wonderful. She explained everything beautifully and was able to answer any questions I had. She even took wonderful photos of me and gave some great suggestions for the rest of my trip.

We spent 2 days with Sudarat . One in Bangkok and the other in Ayutthaya. She is knowledgeable and very personable. Took us away from the hordes of tourists . Lunch with the locals instead of at the restaurant with the tour buses. Gave us a behinds the scenes look at a sugar company . She is all the stars available . Top notch . The cats pyjamas!

This tour was definitely worth it! Moddy is friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging. She answered all our questions and shared so much about Thai culture. I would highly recommend her as a tour guide.

Wow! I loved this tour. I don’t know if it would be for everyone, but if you are interested in Buddhism, then I recommend it. I have a basic understanding of Buddhism, but I still learned a lot. Being able to meet with a monk and ask questions was very special for me. Also, our guide was awesome and very knowledgeable. I have nothing negative to say about this experience.

Have been wanting to do a merit making trip in Bangkok temples but it's hard if one don't speak Thai. Kul was great in bring me to various temples and do merit rituals side by side with me and guiding me. Great way to experience Thai culture!

We are a family of 3 (2 adults and a 5 year old) and did the Buddhism tour with Sudarat. She was very personable, communicated well, and spoke very good English. She personalized the tour for us and was very engaging. We were able to speak to a monk at the first temple, who did a blessing for our daughter who recently passed, and was patient enough to answer the questions of our son. Highly recommend!

Would really recommend this tour, and Moddy as a guide. Very clear communication before the tour. The tour itself was very informative and gave great insight into Thai Buddhism. The temples were beautiful even if it was a bit wet because of the weather. Moddy was very chatty and friendly. She also helped me to get back to where I was staying using the MRT and ferry, and gave me some recommendations on what else I should do while I’m here.

Our private tour was amazing! Our guide Kung was the most well spoken and welcoming person we could have asked for. She was an amazing story teller and explained the history of the temples and artifacts in an engaging way. Her english was perfect and she included a Monk blessing and several offerings in her guided tour. At the end of our visit she directed us to a water taxi that went straight to our hotel and communicated with the driver for us! Her kindness and enthusiasm for her job was very clear. Highly recommend this tour with Kung as your guide!

Araya was wonderful to work with from our initial contact all the way through the tour She is friendly, very knowledgeable, and brings lot of life experience to the tour. It was just me so we adapted to fit what I was interested in and what some recent foot surgery allowed. We still climbed up temples, but I couldn't get on the floor for the monks blessing so she was able get it done standing up. She speaks excellent English so easy to understand all the things she was telling me right down to the fine details. I would happily work with Araya again when in Bangkok.

Had a fantastic tour with Petz (booked via WithLocals). He tailored the tour to our requirements, was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. He took us o into a number of wonderful locations we had never even heard about and even managed to arrange a private session with a local monk! I know he has a number of other tours he provides (including a night time tour) and would have no hesitation in recommending him.

Polly could not have done any more. The tour was interesting and informative. She was so knowledgeable about the temples and the customs. She collected me from my hotel and made sure that I was back in a taxi at the end of the tour. I highly recommended this tour with Polly if you want to learn about and experience the beautiful temples in Bangkok.

Excellent guide and tour! So many interesting things to learn and see. Guide was exceptional in her ability to personalize our tour. Kung addressed all our questions and used stories to help us understand the rich history of Thailand and Buddhism. I highly recommend this tour with Kung.
