AN ENJOYABLE EXPERIENCE !

It was a leisurely and enjoyable experience for a couple of hours although, as boat rides down a river go, don't expect that there exists much "sightseeing" of buildings / structures on the embankment. It's simply just a pleasant trip on a boat. The lunch served was quite fine (and the ice cream was excellent). The Thai lady at the departing wharf was fantastic and helpful. Incidentally, if the reader happens to require the services of a driver (private vehicle and English speaking), I recommend that you contact Khun Wan on +66 (0)62 942 4965 or WhatsApp +66629424965 who can take you on sightseeing tours / places of interest, etc. She has a wonderful sense of humour and is quite engaging. All you have to do is work out your itinerary and the rest is easy !!!
