Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"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!"

"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!"
"Piyaporn was a fantastic guide and the driver was great too! Very knowledgeable. Ayutthaya was interesting and well worth the visit. I chose this over group tours as I wanted an half day visit and appreciated the efficient logistics/pacing. Stopped for some boat noodles too and dropped me off in BKK at a local food stall area. "
"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."
"Highly recommend Sudarat. She has great insight and took care of the whole family....."
"Our 2.5 hour tour with Zarut was excellent. We sampled delicious food away from the busy tourist areas. Zarut was friendly, helpful and informative. After we ate we went on a tuk tuk ride around various parts of Bangkok where Zarut explained the history and significance of the places we were seeing. This was a real highlight of our trip to Bangkok, I thoroughly recommend to anyone visiting the city."
"Nok was knowledgeable, warm and friendly. She tailored the tour to our dietary requirements (vegetarian). She was interesting to talk to and the tour was a good introduction to Thai food and to Bangkok"
"We had a group of 5 that spent a few hours with Nok. We started at 4:30 pm and proceeded to our first stops where we grabbed some fish pancakes and then we went to a small establishment and went upstairs where we had some duck dishes with noodles, in broth and on rice. All very tasty. Next stop was we had Penang curry and then we grabbed some tuk tuks to take us to chinatown where we continued the food journey. We had tom yum soup and some pad thai before finishing off with mango sticky rice. Overall we learned about food, we learned about thailand and she answered all the questions we threw at her. She was very accommodating to food allergies and she was a great host. 2.5 hours went so fast but the tour allowed us to be more adventurous in our further travels in country. Thank you Nok!!"
"Our family absolutely loved this tour! Piya was friendly and super knowledgeable about all the sites. She knew the delicious spots to eat and brought us to an amazing restaurant on the water where we had the best Thai food ever! The driver was also super friendly and thoughtful. The van we travelled in was comfortable, very clean, and air conditioned. Overall, I think this tour was definitely worth the cost. The one on one experience helped keep my tween kids engaged and allowed us to have a more laid back experience. We recommend this tour 100%!!!"
