It was a huge group tour that I've joined in awhile. It was a very good experience being able to see the major and must see temples in Bangkok. The tour guides were very friendly, and approachable. I would recommend the same for first timers in Bangkok to join / book this package.

The driver's service is good. You can stop to use the toilet during the transfer. He is considerate and convenient. The journey is smooth and safe. It is a good choice for private transfer👍🏻

Book a car in advance to save time. The driver’s service is very polite. It’s worth ordering from Pattaya directly to your hotel in Bangkok.

After leaving the airport, you found the Klook sign and waited for about ten minutes for the staff to arrange for you to get on the bus. The overall process was very smooth and went directly to the Pattaya hotel.

I booked this place based on online reviews. I was torn between this place and another very famous one, but I decided on this one because it's right in front of Wat Arun and you can make a reservation even the day before. It was hard to choose from the many costumes, but the staff's advice helped me. It was also nice that you could leave your luggage in a locker with a key. There is no place to shelter from the sun at Wat Arun, so the free umbrella rental was a great help. If you can rent one, please be careful of heatstroke.
