The CP value is very high and it is very suitable for me who travels alone. At first, when I was looking for ways to get to these two places, they either took too much time or cost too much money. I accidentally saw this itinerary and thought it was great. The tour guide Tony is very professional and can speak Chinese, English and Thai.

I applied for a Japanese guided tour and was taken to various places. There were 8 of us, including myself, 4 Japanese people and a 4-person Korean family. We went to: Wat Paknam Khlong Suan Market Wat Saman Ratnaram Wat Prang Ah Khat, and we split up in front of the Future Cafe at 4:30pm. Our guide, Pairat, gave us clear instructions on how to move around at each place we visited, so I was glad I was able to make requests. There was also time for photos at every location, and even though I was alone, he took so many photos that I didn't need a selfie stick.

Watching the sun set while cruising the Chao Phraya River on the Meridian was magical — the lights, the music, and the view of temples glowing at dusk made it an unforgettable, peaceful escape from the city buzz
