Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"What a pleasure it was to meet Pathu! It was fun to explore Phuket with someone so energetic and knowledgeable. We must return!"
"Our experience in Phuket was truly elevated by the best tour guide. From the very beginning, they were incredibly knowledgeable—not just sharing surface-level facts, but offering deep, meaningful insights into Phuket’s history, culture, and traditions that made every stop come alive. What stood out most was the flexibility. They really allowed us to craft our own trip, tailoring the itinerary to what we were most interested in rather than following a rigid schedule. That made the experience feel personal and intentional, not rushed or generic. Beyond the guided portions, they also took the time to recommend places we could explore on our own—hidden gems, local spots, and must-see locations that we may have otherwise missed. That extra effort made a big difference in how much we were able to enjoy Phuket even outside of the tour. The comfort level was also top-notch. The tour van was clean, spacious, and air-conditioned—such a relief in the Phuket heat—and having cold refreshments available made the journey even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a seamless, thoughtful, and enriching experience. If you’re looking for a guide who is knowledgeable, accommodating, and genuinely invested in making your trip special, this is absolutely the best person to choose."
"Pathu was incredibly knowledgeable, informative, flexible, patient and easygoing. She adapted our tour to suit our needs and wants. Would absolutely recommend and book with Pathu for future trips "
"We’ve used With Locals for all of our travels over the last 4 years. They have all been excellent experiences, but I have to rate our day with Pathu as the best we’ve ever had. Her historical knowledge of the country and the area were excellent. And she took us to the most memorable spots across the island in a mere six hours. Any English speaking tourist should definitely utilize her services. "
"Excellent food tour with Neena in Phuket town. She was so personable and knows the local area well. Great time with her!"
"Pathu is a great guide, very knowlegeable, and we enjoyed out tour of Phuket old town very much!"
"I’ve been to Phuket many times, but it’s even better with a guide, and I’m so happy I picked Pai. She is so knowledgeable, warm, friendly, and considerate. I learned a lot today! She made sure we timed our journey just right to enjoy Coral Island without too many other visitors. Then we went to a somewhat secluded spot for snorkeling (only one other private boat) and there were so many stunning fish and sea life of all kinds. She worked out all our transportation and made sure everything was smooth. I will book another tour with Pai next time I’m in Phuket."
"Our highlight in Phuket was the food and culture tour by Pathu - what an incredible font of knowledge, delivered with warmth, professionalism, grace, and good wit. Each food and beverage stop seemed to have been carefully selected with complementary flow in mind. The pace was good and the overall experience simply superb. Get on Pathu’s tour if you can! "
"Our tour with Vatin in Phuket was truly exceptional and an absolute highlight of our trip. From the moment we met him, VJ was kind, enthusiastic, and incredibly knowledgeable about Phuket’s history, culture, and most beautiful spots. His passion for what he does is clear, and his positive energy made the entire day feel joyful and easy. What made this experience especially meaningful was how thoughtfully VJ accommodated my recent knee injury. With very limited ability to walk, I was worried about missing out, but VJ went above and beyond by driving us to all of the best viewpoints and locations and carefully planning the day so I could see everything with minimal walking. I never once felt rushed or like an inconvenience. Instead, I felt completely cared for and supported. VJ’s warmth, patience, and genuine kindness truly set him apart. He made sure we were comfortable, engaged, and enjoying every moment while sharing his deep knowledge with such enthusiasm and heart. If you are visiting Phuket, a tour with VJ is an absolute must. This was not just a tour, but a thoughtful, memorable, and beautifully curated experience we will always remember."
"Would highly recommend. Pathu was very friendly and so knowledgable. "
