“We had a tour with only 2 people in it as many just got their dates wrong, so we pretty much got personal guide. We learned so much, our guide was super nice and knowledgable. I asked for food recomendations and I got myself the best khao soi in town!! I shared my knowledge with a friend while visiting the temples in the evening, really recommend the tour if you want to learn more about the cities history and the temples it self :)”

“I liked the way how he explained the history of Thailand combined with Buddhism. Not only in theory, right at the beginning of the tour we practised meditation for a few minutes and experienced how it feels getting calm and still. He also could answer any questions we had. I liked the tour very much and can recommend it.”
