    We had an unforgettable experience exploring Thailand with our tour guide, who was truly exceptional. From Bangkok to Chiang Mai, our guide’s extensive knowledge of each location – from the ancient temples of Ayutthaya and the historic ruins of Sukhothai to the beautiful landscapes of the Golden Triangle – added so much depth to our journey. Every day was filled with fascinating stories and insights that brought each place to life. Our guide was not only knowledgeable but also incredibly accommodating and dependable. They made sure all our needs were met, and they were always ready to go above and beyond to make our trip seamless and enjoyable. Their friendly and warm personality created such a comfortable atmosphere, making the experience feel personal and special. The itinerary was well-planned and balanced, allowing us to enjoy both iconic sites and some local hidden gems. One small suggestion would be to provide a bit more water throughout the day, as the heat can be intense. Additionally, while we enjoyed the boat ride, the visit to the Laos market felt less aligned with the overall itinerary. Nonetheless, we are deeply grateful for all their efforts in making this journey memorable, and we’d highly recommend them to anyone looking to explore Thailand! Thank you🙏

    The places of the first 4 days were good. The 5th and 6th day was not. Only the Queen Sirikit Botanical Garden in Mae Rim was correct. The tour guide replaced the Baan Tipmanee with a mediocre workshop making wood products. I have checked recently the Internet information about Baan Tipmanee realized that. It is not honest to customers. The tour guide should have explained to me and the other customers about the changes. You can check with the other 2 customers participating with me. It is so easy to figure out, from the photos and videos about Baan Tipmanee on the Internet. I am 100% sure that the tour guide didnot take the customers to Baan Tipmanee at all. Tourradar needs to clarify with Destination Services Thailand. The visting to Botanical Garden is not interesitng in comparison with Elephant Sanctuary Chiangmai. If possible, please drop out the Botanical Garden visiting and replace it with elephant tour. I am as a visitor does not mind paying a little more to have a good experience. But the 5th day did ruin my total pleasure a bit. More, the 6th day was nothing. I would expect there is a short activity like 3-4 hrs in the morning and the tour guide can take me straight to the airport for flying out Changmai. I had to wait until 2 pm for picking up to the airport. Furthermore, I think the design of the tour is not good in that sense. That is why I rate 4 out of 5. Tour radar need to clarify and complain to the tour provider (Destination Services Thailand). If next time I book on Tour radar and I saw the Destination Services Thailand will provide me the tour I will cancel immediately ! Seriously.

    -I booked a group tour for six days in Northern Thailand, but I ended up being alone. That's not what I payed for. I found out when we started. Noone told me before, which is not honest. When there's such a major sudden change, the customer should be notified and given the chance to be reimbursed. - The guide gave me very little information. When we arrived to big cities, he never gave me any guidance about what to do there in my free time. Actually he even said that there was nothing to do in Chiang Mai, which is absolutely wrong. Actually on Sunday evening there's a famous street market and he didn't even mention it. - The guide should really improve his English. -The guide mentioned three times the tips. Really pushy.

    A couple of the hotels were quite unpleasant to stay in. The water from the sink at Phitsanulok was yellow. I felt unclean taking a shower in it. Wienglakor Hotel, in Lampang had a really loud air conditioner. We didn't sleep well there. The hotels in Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai were much better. Our guide, Patty, was very nice, but his English was limited. His knowledge was excellent, but he took quite a bit of time to pray and take photos at every temple we visited. The little visit to the morning market in Chiang Rai followed by hunting down a monk at the temple to give food was awkward and rather weird, but OK, I guess.

    The tour was very interesting thanks to our excellent tour guide Uddi. With his broad vocabulary of the German language and his enormous knowledge in all areas, Uddi conveyed a great deal of information to us in a clear and understandable way. Everything was well prepared and so we were able to enjoy the tour without rushing and despite the high season. I had lived in Thailand for 3 years and still learned a lot of new things about Thailand, its history, its plants and animals, life there, customs and traditions and much more.
