Arival Bangkok Tours

I was an avid member of my high school band and deeply missed the joy of making music with others before discovering this unique experience. In case you're wondering, I don't actually dress in 80's wear on any regular basis, but I had fun doing so at an 80's costume party contest not that long ago :)

Fabulous time good team building, everyone participates with excitement. We did a group event with eight people, Chris our coach guided individually each person and supported the group as a team. Their development of competition and pairing up the teams has an interesting algorithm. How they do it I don’t know but we had a blast.

My son and I visited Legoland returning after a long time. He loves to build LEGOs and it was a special trip while his younger brother was at daycare. For school vacation we were concerned it would be busy but we got there early and basically had the place to ourselves for the first hour and a half. We did everything but we spent a lot of time with the master builder helping to put together a LEGO mural. We started talking to Master Builder Megan who shared how she builds all the amazing structures. She then gave my son an amazing surprise! She took us behind the scenes, showed him how she creates the LEGO structures, they built a mini figure of my son and put it in the mini Fenway Park. What an amazing experience. One he will never forgot! Thank you for going above and beyond to make my son so happy!

I got my first ticket for paint nite through groupon. It was great. I had a great time with my friend. Since that time I've done another paint nite, a plant nite, and a candle nite. I'm going to go to their ukulele nite at the end of January 2020 by myself. I've had a great time at every event and met really cool people. I've gone to most of these events by myself. I even bought some more anytime passes. Groupon doesn't give you all the details but the yaymaker website does. They tell you what the total cost of the event is and when you click buy it gives you a break down of the ticket cost and the extra materials fee. The website isn't trying to keep anything from anyone. It's not in their fine print. They openly break down the cost for you. Groupon is not yaymaker. They won't provide you with the details the actual website can. You can't be upset at what another company doesn't tell you. I have never had an event get cancelled on me. That could happen if there's not enough interest in the event. That's not yaymaker's fault. I love to get their anytime passes when they go on sale. You have 6 months to use them at any of their events. You do have to pay for the extra material costs.
