Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Andy is a first class guide. He is knowledgeable about Thai/Bangkok history and is personable and easy to relate to. The pace was just right, meandering through the flower market, Portuguese neighbourhood, a Chinese temple and Wat Arun. Happy to recommend Andy. "
"We had a fantastic tasting tour with Kim (Apicha). A great mixture of unexpected and traditional items. Kim went the extra mile by contacting us before the tour, with wetwipes on hand and guiding us to great cocktail bars after the tour. He took us to a district we would not necessarily have visited and only presented high quality food items. If you are interesting in experiencing Bangkok and some local food, I recommend this tour and Kim."
"We’ve learned it is money well spent to hire a local guide on day one - group or personal - when visiting an iconic city for the first time . An initial dose of local expertise, the do’s and don’ts, some historical perspective and a primer in regional culture afford the rest of the visit some deliberate structure, instead of counting on dumb luck to be in the right place at the right time. Trip prep reading is important too, but local guides really cement an itinerary for us. So much to see, so little time to see it. We signed up for a Bangkok “street food and history” tour “WithLocals” - and it was just what we needed - “Sammy” met us at base of steps to a BTS station , and we spent the afternoon together. Poor guy talked non-stop; we even followed him halfway back to his house so he could set us loose in the Chatuchak weekend market on the way. Walked couple hours sampling local fare - some familiar, some bizarre - walked down alleys and streets I never would’ve known existed without the tour. Made offering at a Hindu temple, took selfies at the tallest building in the city. Learned so much, in our short time together, will affect our following month in Thailand. Excellent job by Sammy, made a lasting impression on us; doubt I’ll ever think about Bangkok without thinking of Sammy too . Definitely well worth the time and money - thank you again my friend!"
When you hit the road and land in a new city like Bangkok, there's an exciting way to dive into its soul: personalized local tours. Forget the typical touristy routes – these tours are like having a local friend show you around all the cool spots.
Imagine having someone who lives and breathes Bangkok spill its secrets. That's what local guides bring to the table. They know the hidden alleys, the best bites, and stories that never made it to the guidebooks. Whether you're into munching through food tours, wandering the city's streets, or going off the beaten path, a local guide hooks you up with a private tour that's authentically Bangkok.
The best part? These tours are all about you. No herding in big groups or rushing through places you're not interested in. With private tours, you're the boss. Whether it's snapping pics at iconic landmarks, diving into history, or checking out the art scene, the tour is tuned to your vibes at your tempo.
But it doesn't stop at city limits. Day trips let you escape the urban jungle and explore nearby wonders. And if you're just setting foot in Bangkok, kickstart tours give you a taste of everything. Think of it as a crash course in Bangkok awesomeness, guided by a local who knows the city like the back of their hand.
So, next time you're in Bangkok, ditch the ordinary. Grab a local tour and unlock the city's real magic – the stories, flavors, and places that make it uniquely Bangkok. Get ready to explore like a local!

"We cannot overstate how much we enjoyed our experience with Andy. He gave us fascinating insights into Thai history and culture as we walked and was able to answer all of our questions with his expert knowledge. He took us to some hidden gems we simply wouldn't have known about which we really appreciated. Above all, he was a joy to spend time with. Anyone would be lucky to have Andy as their guide. 5* experience in every way!"
"We had a great tour with Araya. She was patient and kind and really engaged with our kids to keep them involved and interested. She took the time to answer any questions that my husband or I had about Buddhism, Thailand, or Thai culture. We got to see some beautiful wats(temples) that were off the beaten path and so were quite and serene which made it easier for Araya to point out important details of a wat that we would otherwise not understand as Americans. Highly recommend this tour and Araya in particular!"
"Piya was kind, attentive and took extra time to show us the highlights of the city. She taught us about Thai and Buddhist customs. She shared deep cultural insights and knowledge which have helped set up our trip in this magical country. We completed our tour feeling we knew a lot of new things, history and of course hospitality as she treated us to many Thai specialties as we made our way round the city. We would recommend her to any traveller coming to Bangkok. "
"We booked a city tour with Tuangtip a month before our arrival to Bangkok. Within a few days of our tour, I realized that my kids were exhausted from previous travel and we needed to scale down our tour. Tuangtip came up with a perfectly revised itinerary, including a canal tour, some temples, and great activities geared towards my teens. She was so kind, informative, warm, and lovely. I appreciate her changing our plans at the last minute to meet our needs. Highly recommend! "
"Nat (aka Donald) was just a fantastic tour guide. He was highly knowledgeable but also willing to just chat and get to know us and our family. Highly recommend both the tour itself and Donald as a guide for any of your trips!"
"We had a great time with Araya! She's got a great energy and is a pleasure to talk to. As for the food, it was all amazing. She took us to a variety of local restaurants and street food venues in Bangrok. It didn't feel touristy at all. All of the food was stellar."
"Tuangtip was amazing. She welcomed us with water and fruit, and was a pleasant tour guide. She answered all our questions, made sure we knew about all of our choices, and really made sure we knew where we were to go once the tour was over. She also gave us some amazing dinner recommendations! Our party was seven people with teenagers and older adults and she connected with everyone. I highly recommend her. "
