We did a full day trip with Tour with Tong using Kung as our guide and a driver in the (thankfully) comfortable and air conditioned mini bus.
Kung is a very sweet, helpful and knowledgable guide and made our day very interesting. The day was boiling hot with high humidity so the short trips in the van were a relief. Throughout the day Kung just kept going and her genuine love of all the places we visited shone through.
We did Wat Phro, Grand Palace, Canal tour, the temple with the reclining Buddah and another temple with a name that escapes me (jet lagged I think!) and the teakwood house plus some shops. She found us somewhere local and very good to eat. Plus cheap.
We also visited a couple of shops, pointing us in the right direction for the sort of things to buy and the sort of price we should expect to pay. I bought some Tiger balm which I think is brilliant for 20baht a jar, bearing in ind the evening before I couldn%26#39;t get lower than 80 baht.
I would highly recommend Tongs Tours and Kung the guide, if we go again I would most certainly book with them again. I felt we saw more in that day than we would of done on our own and also the tips she gave us proved invaluable saving us time and money.
Thank you Tong and to everyone on this forum who pointed us in the direction of Tong Tours.
