Great overview of main temples. Gets very hot (long pants are required to enter the temples), but amazing to see.

Worth your time:)

What a wonderful day touring the temples! From the moment we were picked up at our hotel, everything was seamless. We traveled comfortably in an SUV and were even provided with water and snacks throughout the day.
Be prepared to do quite a bit of walking and the heat, but it’s absolutely worth it! At each temple, we were personally escorted and learned so much about the history, traditions, customs, and meaning behind what we were seeing. Our guide made the experience both educational and enjoyable.
If you’re visiting Bangkok and want to experience the temples beyond simply taking pictures, we highly recommend this tour. It was an incredible day and one we’ll remember for a long time!

Our guide, Tanya, was great - very knowledgeable, smiley and accommodating to answering all our questions. She gave us a guided walking tour through the temples and explained everything with a great sense of humour and passion. She also gave us ample time to explore some of the areas on our own.
There were a total of around 10 in the group and some departed afterwards, as booked only part of the tour, leaving 4 of us to finish the remaining temples. This latter section was a bit rushed, but likely due to managing our overall time, crowds etc which we appreciate can’t be helped, but still managed to see everything at a more than leisurely pace.
I’d say this is slightly more than a half day tour, as it ended mid afternoon by the time we were dropped at our hotel. I would recommend as it’s a great way to see the main sights with the addition of pick up/drop off to your hotel. We travelled as a couple of
