Bien que nous soyons françaises et la guide parlant Anglais, elle s'efforçait toujours de bien expliquer et répéter si je ne comprenais pas. Elle n'était jamais loin quand je faisais un achat pour m'aider dans les transactions. Elle était vraiment top, souriante et dynamique.

The experience itself was really enjoyable, giving the best part of a full day with no stops at random shopping outlets that you sometimes get. It was very good value for money, and our guide 'Pam' (from WanderSiam tour company) was just amazing, so informative, entertaining and friendly. The only negative thing was that due to the location of our hotel we couldn't be picked up and had to make our own way to the tour company's office due to how busy the Bangkok traffic gets, which we understood.

Bellissima esperienza la nostra guida Siri fantastica. Lo consiglio vivamente per vedere la comunità solare di questo posto. Inoltre per i buongustai si può assaggiare il pad Thai a prezzi vantaggiosi.

Toller Führer, wirklich super interessant. Auf dem Floating Markt gibt es Boote mit Motor und welche die per Hand gerudert, gesteuert werden. Es ist an der Zeit der Umwelt zu Liebe auf Motoren im gesamten Bereich der Kanäle zu verzichten. Gerade TUI sollte dieses von seinen Partnern einfordern. Das Erlebnis wird dadurch ruhiger und noch Narurverbundener. Es geht nicht nur um Kommerz. Es geht um die Menschen und ihren Lebensraum.
