The Ultimate Grand Palace Private Day Trip

Fantastic tour of the beautiful palace and temple as well as a great boat trip through the river and canals of Bangkok. Special Recommendation to Artti who could not be more enthusiastic and helpful!

I requested a personalized tour with Moddy based on the The Ultimate Grand Palace Day Trip. Before confirmation, I managed to discuss with her about my places of interest around that specific area. I kept in touch with Moddy through WhatsApp after the confirmation and was able to express the things that I wish to experience. In my case, I wanted to try Thai traditional costumes, Tuk Tuk and visit Pak Khlong Talat (Flower Market) in which she accommodated all my request. Moddy’s friendly and outgoing personalities are infectious. I felt like I can sit down and just talk to her all day about everything and this is what I concluded when we first meet at the Asia Bangkok Hotel lounge. She can converse in English well. Not only that I feel comfortable, but I also feel safe to travel with her because he will keep reminding me to take care of my own belongings when the place is crowded and offer help whenever she felt necessary. Moddy knew Bangkok so well that she can suggest which public transport to take from one place to one place in a way that it is convenient and affordable. For instance, we were going from Ratchathewi to Chao Phraya River Pier, so she introduced me to Khlong Saen Saep boat taxi, which is an effective way to avoid the traffic on road. This is what intrigued me because I don’t really find this on the internet. Thanks to her recommendation, I managed to rent Thai traditional costume outside of Wat Arun. She is an avid photographer person and due to that, she shared many tips on getting the perfect shot at every corner. She also taught me great poses and helped me captured photos in various angles just to make sure I look good in the photos especially when I was wearing Thai traditional costume, so she tried her best to make it worthwhile. I appreciated all her effort as she will seize any best opportunity to take precious photos such as taking photos with the monks. It’s no doubt that Moddy know the history very well. To me, she is like a walking history book and everywhere we go, she will turn the pages for us. She even shared some knowledge that only locals know. Even though after the tour is ended, she is kind enough to accompany me and make sure I reach my next destination, not to mention she had another appointment later that night. This whole experience was a rich cultural experience, and it made my solo trip in Bangkok so wonderful because after all I have such a lovely companion.

Highly recommend for The Grand Palace tour! She is the most informed and nicest guide. She explained everything at The Grand Palace in details. I appreciated that because I did NOT want a headset that just went over the basics that foreigners have to hear. I even saw a few people listening to her. I asked questions and she was patient and answered all of them. I could not have asked for a better tour guide. I+
