When we went last weekend, it was so crowded that we did not want to stand in line for anything. I had this app downloaded the previous night and I had already gone through it once. It was very nice to have had that preview. It helped a lot to get through everything at my own pace…

Excellent info. I was surprised to see Angkor Wat model in Bangkok Grand Palace. However, the app had great explanation for it. Highly recommended for tourists. Very accurate information. We picked up a map that at the gate. Pleasant surprise was that the app followed the map perfectly - number by number. We know that we did not miss anything in the vast complex.

Great app for touring Grand Palace. Emerald Buddha stories are the best. Amazed at how much information is packed into this app. We took the local travel bus to get to the Grand Palace. The bus conductor (helper) suggested that we use this app. None of the BKK travel apps have Grand Palace inside info. Every Bangkok app is all about just Bangkok city and an overview. This app is actually about the information inside the palace.

Wow ! Looks like an Official app ! The app is exactly following the 35 stops of the map, making it very easy to go from one stop to next without missing anything. Good stories. Short and to the point. Thai folks know how to build such major attraction and then maintain it well.

Seems like this is the official palace app. Every number is matching the palace map. I would have liked more info and going beyond it

There was a big rush. We decided to start from the middle and do the front area of Emerald Buddha later. It was easy to follow the app even though we started half way. We jumped to the model of Angkor Wat and started there. It helped to know that we did not miss anything. The “List” screen is the best to get an overview. Please ensure that you use it. It is a bit hidden

Did not miss out on anything. The app has good stories of structures inside the grand palace complex, admission fee, entry time, clothing restrictions etc. The only other way to know more about the insides is to buy a book. I did not want to spend money on a book or carry it inside. The app helped to plan the right amount of time without worrying to miss anything.

Loved it! My husband got the palace audio guide instrument and I used this app on my Samsung. It had the exact same info. However, the app was better as I could see the picture to make sure that I was listening to the correct story. At times, my hysband was misguided as everything looks amazing and gets confusing without picture identification. .

We got cheated outside by some guide. He took money just to bring us to the palace but had no information about inside of the palace. At first, he told us that he knows but then he knew nothing. His accent was very difficult to understand. He was too fast at the sleeping Buddha temple where he took us first. When my son found this app, we decided to let him go. He fought with us for tips. I am so happy to find an app that talks about insides of the palace. …

Worked offline without any data. I downloaded when I was still at home. I had no data at the palace. It was a very short trip and I did not bother getting a local SIM chip. The App worked completely offline and had no data issues...

The whole tour is nicely detailed. Each stop is so descriptive with HD images. Brilliant maps - made it so easy to find the stops. Was able to do the whole tour at my own pace. Overall very informative, yet fun n interactive. Highly recommend the app.

The best part is navigation help to make sure that you do not miss anything. The palace is spread out and it is easy to miss some parts. The app helped gave stop by stop info with serial numbers to ensure that we do not miss anything.

The maps are 3D. I liked the app but I did not like the 3D. I would have prefered to have simple maps as I had to scroll to see it all. I recommend adding simple maps.
