Fluke was amazing! He was humorous and a great storyteller. His historical knowledge was excellent adding to the hidden tour. Highly recommend the tour.

Fluke the best guide ever - the tour is amazing recomend to everyone
Great tour. Very friendly and knowledgeable guide.
Tony our guide was wonderful I would highly recommend
Great tour of the canals and waterways of Bangkok with Nammon as our tour guide. Saw part of the city you wouldn’t be able to find otherwise
lots of fun, must see. mannom is a great tour guide
Great journey and experience with Fluke and his driver. Lots of enthusiasm and information 🤩. Khob Khun Ka 🙏🏻
Great tour guide Fluke. He informed us about a lot of interesting facts during the tour. Highlight is the visit of Big Buddha, where he takes a picture for anyone on the boat. The boat ride is smooth and perfect if you just have some hours in Bangkok.
Fluke was good tour guide and informative
Yo-yo WAS THE BEST guide very knowledgeable! He grew up around here and you can tell he is very passionate. Amazing canal tour highly recommend!
Tony was fantastic - Very knowledgeable, great English, incredibly accommodating. Would book again and recommend to all our friends (This was recommended to us already by American friends). 5 Stars!
Fluke was a great guide. It was a fun and interesting experience!
The artisan stop isn’t particularly special as you wouldn’t want to buy anything unless you are in the market for touristy trinkets. Some nicer things, one artisan potter but in the rain, fairly miserable. That said, the guide was a sweetie and when one asked questions ‘off script’, she knew her stuff and it made the tour experience more personal. It was also nice to be off the road and out of the intensely busy traffic and instead explore the ‘klongs’ or canals. The staff were also good. It’s a tricky spot to find. And the restaurant at the start point was also cheap, cheerful and pretty good.
Great tour guide. Very informative and kind. Very well recommended. Thank you!
Fluke is the best🥹, he told us everything, explained in English, everything was perfect because of he made it unforgettable
Wonderful experience with Fluke as our guide.
Fluke, our guide, was really great and so was our driver. Well worth taking this tour!
Advertised drop-off changed at the last minute We booked the Hidden Bangkok Longtail Boat Tour expecting to finish at Tha Tien Pier near Wat Pho, as advertised. Instead, we were taken back to the departure point, which disrupted our plans for the rest of the day. We were only informed immediately before the trip, when we had already made our way to the meeting point. We were told that part of the river was closed because royal boats were passing through. I cannot verify that explanation, and I understand that river restrictions may be outside the operator’s control. What disappointed us was the last-minute notice. When did the operator learn about the closure, and why were we not contacted beforehand? The finishing point mattered to us when choosing this tour. Changing it left us having to arrange our own journey to Wat Pho, and we felt let down. Before booking, ask the operator to confirm exactly where your tour will finish.
Fluke (guide) and Alex (captain) at Hidden Bangkok Tours were phenomenal and very accommodating. They made the tour experience fun and informative. Would definitely recommend them
Awesome guide named Fluke. And Alex the boat Capitan!
Fantastique tour! Fluke (our guide) was super Nice!!!! I recommend for sure. We were 2 ladies and it was just enough and great vibes to make us enjoy the time
Fluke was an awesome guide! Loved it!
The tour guide Pear was very good however, the tour itself was disappointing as it was little more than a boat ride down a dirty canal although the view of the Big Buddha was impressive.
Great experience! Fun and informative! Fluke our guide was amazing and funny. Loved the easy to follow signs to the meeting location and how they took great care of each guest! Market area is fabulous, plan on quick shopping, but do plan on buying something, one of the best for paintings to remember your trip.
It was such an amazing tour experience with our tour guide Namon❤️
Nammon was a fabulous tour guide. Friendly, personal. She told us the official Thai name of Bangkok. It’s quite a story. Thank you for taking individual photos of is too. That was very special. us.
Very nice people. Our guide, Nammon, was fun and informative. Would recommend to others.
It was a very nice tour and we had an amazing guide. Really enjoyed the tour!
If you are looking for inside knowledge of old Bangkok.. this tour is highly recommended. We had the pleasure of being accompanied by Yoyo and we couldn’t have been happier.
We had a really great time! Fluke was a great guide!
Amazing tour of the canal system in Thon Buri. A lot of rain but free rain ponchos were offered. Our tour guide Fluke was great.
Fluke was awesome and very kind
Jazzy was great. It rained and Jazzy and the boat captain made the best of it all for us. Interesting look on things thru the canals.
Nammon was a friendly and accessible guide on the Hidden Bankok longboat tour. She answered all our questions regardless of the topic. Thanks Nammon!
Yo-yo was brilliant. Very good guide and thoroughly enjoyable
Very good. Fluke is an amazing guide
Great experience of the canal life. Our guide Fluke was really good.
A magical behind-the-scenes view of canal-side Bangkok. We saw many aspects of the city that could not be seen any other way, and a way of life that might not be able to exist in the future. The guide was informative and very caring - she went out of her way to make us comfortable and she helped us find a taxi at the end of the tour.
Absolutely recommend this tour. Was so interesting and our guide Jazzy was great. Even had a thunder storm in the middle.
Loved riding on the boat, relaxing. And seeing all the beautiful things this city has to offer. It wasn’t overly crowded, just right. The tour guide was great. Very knowledgeable.
Jazzy was a very informative and wonderful tour guide. Our favorite part was visiting the artist market!
Great seeing the back canals and the big Buddha. Also great understanding how folks used to live off the water.
Was a great experience to see the massive statue of Buddha. I was awestruck! The boat ride was fun and I felt safe. It was an eye-opener to see the other side of Thailand.
An excellent trip, Pear the tour guide, was excellent and a fee tuk tuk back to the main road for a grab. Well worth a few hours of your time
Amazing time. Great stories and background of the river.
Fluke was so friendly and ab amazing guide
Siri gave us an amazing tour, she is amazing. This bout tour was really fun.
Nammmon was our guide🤩 very informative and beautiful personality… I Highly recommend this guide(Nammon) and your …Best tour i❤️
What a tour! Nammon was such an awesome tour guide, she was so friendly and informative. The place itself is a little challenging to get too it took us 45+ minutes to get there from Sathorn area and the streets are quite narrow so our Grab taxi couldn’t make it the full way. Luckily there are signs that guide you in the right direction, once we got there everyone was soo friendly. Booked this very last minute but so glad I did it was a great way to see a different side of Bangkok!
