Experience Art & Culture Tours in Bangkok with Withlocals

" ⸻ We had an amazing time with the With Locals Muay Thai boxing experience. It was such an authentic and cultural activity, giving us a real glimpse into this iconic Thai sport. Everything was well organised from start to finish — from the warm welcome to the detailed explanations of the rules and traditions. We learned so much, got to try some moves ourselves, and felt truly immersed in the atmosphere. A memorable experience that we thoroughly enjoyed and would highly recommend!"

"We loved this experience - it was a highlight of our stay in Bangkok. Araya was a great guide - very friendly and informative. "

"We wanted to see the "more authentic" floating market experience and glad we booked the Thaka, Amphawa & Railroad market with Piyaporn. My sister and myself have been to Thailand before but have never been to the floating market and wanted a more 'local' perspective than just a chaperone between spots. Piyaporn talked about how the floating markets have changed with tourism and the times. We got to see the very touristy side of the Railroad market but also the more local side of Thaka market. The canal boat tour was a highlight. Piyaporn also catered to our interests in more local food (indulging in all the dried and salted seafood along the railroad market) and a delicious pad krapaow at Amphawa market. Note: The floating market experience might not be the same as the major tourist spot of Damnoen Saduak so set your expectations accordingly. This one felt a lot more relaxed, but you might not see as many vendors in boats and more along the sides of the canals (which I believe is more the reality of the floating markets these days). Overall, great experience and would do it again especially with Piyaporn."

"We had an absolutely wonderful evening with our guide, Araya. From the very beginning, she was incredibly friendly, helpful, and welcoming, making us feel right at home in bustling Bangkok. Araya took us to authentic local eateries we would never have found on our own, giving us a true taste of Thai cuisine far away from the typical tourist spots. But the evening was about much more than just delicious food. Araya shared fascinating insights about Bangkok’s culture, traditions, and everyday life, all told with great enthusiasm and a fantastic sense of humor. Her stories and energy made every moment enjoyable and memorable. Thanks to Araya, we experienced Bangkok through the eyes of a local, and it was unforgettable. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a genuine, flavorful, and fun introduction to the city!"

"Araya was phenomenal, so easy to talk to and excited to share about her faith, city, and thoughts. Excellent way for travelers to talk to a local about how regular folks experience religion in Thailand. "

"My wife and I had a thoroughly enjoyable day trip to Ayutthaya with Piyaporn. She obviously enjoys her work and was a fantastic guide. Great knowledge and historical background combined with excellent photography skills - she took some wonderful pictures of us! Plus a lovely seafood lunch by the river. Highly recommended!"

"We clicked with Araya right from the start. With our family of four, the youngest of whom is 13, we not only enjoyed many dishes but also learned a lot about the city and the neighbourhood in particular. Our youngest is a picky eater, so we were very surprised that he tried everything and liked almost everything. We definitely recommend Araya if you want to experience traditional Thai cuisine."
