Great way to understand the River Kwai history

Published on Nov, 2024

Overall, it was a great experience. We first visited the cemetery and a simple museum. Then all members of the group opted for the optional boat trip up the river to the train station. I especially enjoyed the train ride and the included buffet lunch. The drive back to Bangkok was extra long because of traffic but our guide (Rach) and driver tried to drop us close to our next destination.

Great experience

Published on Nov, 2024

We had a great tour with Rach - our guide. He had a very big knowledge about the history and the places we visited. Definitely worth booking.

Long day trip, but worth every second.

Published on Oct, 2024

Nina is a great guide. Very gracious and extremely knowledgeable. Driver was also a pro. Long trip but worth every second.

Love This Tour!

Published on Jun, 2024

We enjoyed all aspects of this tour. Walking on the bridge while hearing the history from our tour guide, Rach, was fascinating. Traveling on the train was my favorite, the scenery is beautiful. The buffet lunch was good, the view from the restaurant was spectacular! We watched the movie "Bridge on the River Kwai" on the the flight to Bangkok, that really helped us appreciate the history. We highly recommend this tour!

Sad history

Published on Jun, 2024

Very heart felt to see and heard the history of war. Nothing benefit war. This message need to educate in family and school.
