We added a couple of optional activities beyond Khao San Road and don't regret it. Good value for what was included, and the food recommendations from our guide were spot on.

Our trip to Bangkok was fantastic from start to finish. The hotel was clean and well located, and the guided visit to Asiatique The Riverfront was a real highlight. Airport transfers were on time both ways.

Booked this as a couple trip and it was well paced. Jim Thompson House in particular stood out. A couple of the transfers ran a little late but nothing that spoiled the trip.
