Worked with Diana to book Thailand trip and she did a very good job putting a detailed itinerary together for me. Then Covid19 hit and American Airlines cancelled flight to Thailand via Hong Kong. We couldn't get there. UME Travel gave us a partial refund for which I appreciated. So a month ago I started re-planning to go to Thailand in 2021 but Diana wouldn't ever answer my emails. So I requested Phoebe to help me and she did but after sending me a couple options, and I sending back my suggestions, no response for the last four days and today going on five days. I would like to use UME Travel as I had a good experience the first time but since then, I would give their response time a failing grade. If this improves, I will update this review.

The best way to explore Bangkok is using the mass transit, just like the locals, to get around town as quickly as possible, also a good way to see the different modes of transport that Bangkok has to offer as you visit the Grand Palace, Wat Phra Keo, Wat Pho, China Town and Leng Noi Yee temple. 

Inclusions: Landing and facility fees, Professional guide, Hotel pickup and drop-off, Private tour, Snacks

My husband and I had such a great tour with Kat. She took us to see 3 different temples, the first being Wat Traimit where we saw the solid gold Buddha, the second Wat Poh where we saw the amazing reclining Buddha and the third Wat Arun - the temple of dawn. We walked around China town and through their food markets which were most interesting, We visited the beautiful flower markets and it was in that area we had a delicious Pad Thai chicken lunch. Kat was so informative and nothing was too much trouble for her - a most kind lady and we cannot praise her enough. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to mix with local people and see the real Bangkok off the tourist route. Kat’s English was superb.

4. Step Back In Time: Explore Bangkok's Historical Koh Kret Island

Bangkok, Thailand City Unscripted Bangkok

Koh Kret is just a hop and a skip away from the city and well worth the trip. Spend the day with one of our hosts exploring this man-made island in the middle of the Chao Praya river. Here you can soak up the rich cultural heritage of the Mon community- one of Thailand’s oldest tribes renowned for their traditional pottery. Visit the weekend market where locals come to trade or take an adventure to the historic pottery making village, where the earthenware art is still made in the traditional Mon style. Explore the island’s rich culture as you visit historic temples like Wat Salakun, Wat Phat Lorn and Wat Poramaiyikawat and, if hunger pangs strike, your host will show you exactly where to go to indulge in authentic local street food. Once you have made a booking, we will pair you up with a like-minded host, who will create a personalised itinerary that is totally flexible. You can agree on a meeting time and place but you can always change your mind about what you want to do.

Inclusions: Private and personalised experience, 8 hours with a Local Host, Water taxi fare, Walking experience once on the island (other transport can be arranged at an additional cost)

Exclusions: Food and drinks, Tickets to any attractions, Additional transportation costs , Gratuities (optional)

Nice touring company that we wanted to book with, but didn’t as they support animal suffering. Elephant backs are the most vulnerable part of their bodies, which no one should use for leisure (or work, for that matter). Also, these elephants are captured from the wild and broken in (=beaten till they surrender). No animal loving human being would support these practices.
