Experience City tours in the best of
Bangkok with Withlocals

"My teenage daughter and I had a lovely morning riding the longtail boat through the canals with Tuangtip. She was so kind and thoughtful and we learnt so much from her. We visited temples and learnt about the customs and traditions, saw the golden Buddha, visited the artist house and made a bracelet, fed fish on the river, ate delicious fried banana from a stall, and rode a tuk tuk. Tuangtip took lots of photos for us which we really appreciated. Highly recommend this tour with Tuangtip!"

"Artty was such an amazing guide (so sorry the review is late)! He made the entire experience so smooth, helped us get our bearings with navigation, and gave us such a beautiful understanding of the city and its history and stories. Absolutely worth paying for a private tour, we never would have seen half of these things or had time to really explore and enjoy the sights in a large group. During our 2025 July/Aug trip, we had cancelled a different larger group tour since we didn’t realize at the time that many things would be closed for the King’s birthday. We saw this tour and thought that Artty seemed lovely and very knowledgeable based on his description (spoiler alert, he absolutely was and made our whole day of touring in Bangkok simply outstanding!) so we decided to go with him. He was very understanding of us when we were delayed by getting turned around on our way to Wat Traimit, and proceeded to tour us around the aforementioned temple with wonderful enthusiasm and a deep understanding of the history and stories behind it. He then took us through Yaowarat, to the Wat Pho temple complex by tuktuk (we went to Wat Phra Ubosot, Wat Pho, and several other temples and museums inside). We stopped for a delicious lunch before going to explore Pak Khlong Talat, where we were able to participate in a demonstration of the chisel technique style of Thai massage (this was awesome). He went along with our interests as well and after hearing from us, he decided to take us along one of the canals to Wat Chakrawat (Crocodile Temple) which was so cool!! I highly recommend this stop, as the artwork is absolutely stunning in this temple, and Artty was able to explain so much of the Buddhist stories associated with them. Artty made sure to take photos of us along the way so that we could both be present in the memories (thank you so much), helped me to avoid gluten as much as possible in the various foods he procured for us, showed us drinks/snacks I never would have tried, took us off the beaten path, and he was kind enough to walk us back to the Chao Phraya riverboat docks so that we could make it back to our end of town. 1000000 out of 10, could not imagine our trip if we hadn’t included this experience with Artty! He also shared the locations (google map pins) and names so that we could return to them again later—which we did! We cannot wait to return one day :) "

"We had an amazing time on the Highlights & Hidden Gems of Bangkok tour with Andy as our guide. From the moment the tour began, his passion for Bangkok, its history, and its culture was evident. Andy was incredibly knowledgeable and shared fascinating stories and insights that brought the city’s landmarks and hidden corners to life."

"Moody was a great tour guide! She is incredibly knowledgeable about Buddhism. I really appreciate all of the information that she shared. I learned so much. She is really a lovely person to spend time with! "

"Moddy was a fun and energetic guide who very much enjoyed showing off her hidden gems in this city. We were able to see a variety of sites that really shined a good light on Bangkok. We enjoyed seeing and hearing the history of several temples as well as the markets. Very fun. "

"Our group of five (5) recently completed a multi-day tour with Zarut. We had a wonderful experience with Zarut as he showed us the beautiful treasures of Bangkok and also its’ hidden gems. I have traveled extensively worldwide having visited nearly 100 countries and all seven continents. In my travels, I have utilized the services of dozens of private tour guides. I highly recommend Zarut as he is one of the finest private tour guides that I have had the pleasure of meeting. Zarut is very friendly, witty, kind and extremely knowledgeable about the present and former history of Bangkok and Thailand. If you are looking for a great private guide to show you the beauty of Bangkok, it is without reservation that I suggest that you contact Zarut…he will no helps to make your travels to Bangkok a remarkable experience."

"Amazing time, very educating. She thought as much about Buddhist cultures and traditions as well as the difference practices in Thailand "

"Do you know which Buddha represents the day you were born? Why is that Buddha’s hand facing the ground? Did you know your birthday determines your lucky color in Thai tradition? If you want answers to questions you never even thought to ask, book a tour with Tuangtip (Tai for short). She is warm, professional, and incredibly flexible. She adjusted her schedule to fit ours and made every stop feel personal. Each temple had a unique story, and she shared so much fascinating history with us. She transformed Bangkok from a checklist into an unforgettable experience that we’ll cherish forever. 😃"

"We had a really great, interesting and funny tour with Tuangtip (Tai). She showed us local food and flowers, wo took a short tuctuc ride and went to beautiful Wat Arun. She was quite funny and politely answered all our questions. We could highly recommend her as a guide. Thank you Tip for that great experience! 🩷"

"I had an awesome 3 hour tour to temples. Petz is so friendly and welcoming and very knowledgeable about the history of Thailand and Bangkok. He also patiently explained rhe basic concepts of Thai Buddhism. He also took me quieter temples where it was possible to be still and mindful as local people prayed and meditated. One of the highlights of my time in Thailand. Thank you Petz"
