Good Times Travel Service

4.6(70 reviews)

Situated on Mae Nam Kwai Road in the heart of Kanchanaburi, Good Times Travel Service is a local tour operator catering to travellers looking to make the most of this historically and naturally rich region. The agency offers organised tours and activities that tap into Kanchanaburi's key drawcards, including the River Kwai, the Death Railway, waterfalls, national parks, and surrounding countryside — making it a practical starting point for both first-time visitors and those looking to explore beyond the main sites. The office has a welcoming, no-fuss atmosphere suited to independent travellers who want some structure without sacrificing flexibility. Staff are experienced in connecting visitors with the right tours for their interests and schedules, whether that means a day trip to Erawan National Park, a rafting excursion, or a multi-day adventure further into the Kanchanaburi countryside. Good to know: the office is open seven days a week, with weekday and Saturday hours running from 8:00am to 9:00pm, and slightly shorter hours on Sundays until 6:00pm. Travellers are encouraged to visit or check the website in advance to confirm tour availability, especially during peak season around November to February when demand for Kanchanaburi tours tends to increase. Booking ahead is advisable for popular excursions.

Tips for Visiting Activities & Tours

Vet Elephant Sanctuaries

Only visit sanctuaries that prohibit riding, use no chains or bullhooks, and let elephants roam freely. Elephant Nature Park in Chiang Mai set the standard. If a place offers painting shows or circus tricks, walk away.

Book Through Klook or GetYourGuide

These platforms offer instant confirmation, free cancellation on most activities, and prices that are often lower than walk-up rates. Compare with local agencies for multi-day trips where negotiation might save more.

Do Outdoor Activities in the Morning

Heat and humidity peak from noon to 3 PM. Schedule jungle treks, cycling tours, and outdoor cooking classes for early morning. Water activities are more flexible since you're in and out of the sea.
