Our tour guide Ms Mam made our Bangkok…
Our tour guide Ms Mam made our Bangkok trip smoothly and comfortably. I can’t expect she escorted us to the airport ticket booth and security screening area. Highly recommend Ms Mam and her driver. We received cool towel and iced water whenever we backed to our car… can’t express our gratitude for the incredible hospitality service. More
