“It was an authentic and special experience. Very local and turist free trip. I would highly recommend it, if you want to try something different and free of tourist. The walk through the typical local Bangkok area where the local live. A trip to one of the channel's where's we offered food to a munk and was blessed by him. Boat Trip through the old Bangkok channel highways "very nice" visiting several Temple's which were basically tourist free and typical Thai breakfast at one of the stops. Feeding fish at the side of the channels. Taking a break from everything with cold refreshing coconut water and sweet watermelon snack. And at the end of the trip eating lunch at a local Thai place. You will get a local experience all thale way.”

Jumpol has been a great guide and the places that he brought us was off the beaten track. My family and i enjoyed ourselves so much. And to top ut all, he was very kind and brought us to a floating market, even though it was not covered under the tour
