Sudarat was absolutely amazing. As soon as I booked she sent me a message asking what we wanted to do on the tour. I gave her a rough idea of what we wanted to do and she came up with a few suggestions. I asked for some “off the beaten path” stuff and she did not disappoint. At most of the places we went to we were the only tourists there. It felt very private and special but also safe. I would love to do another tour with her again some time.Amazing Tour!

This is one of the most confusing reviews I’ve had to write — and the reason is quite simple: we had a lovely tour that we truly enjoyed, led by a wonderful guide whom we deeply appreciated, but we didn’t exactly get what we had asked for. We had specifically requested a tour that would resemble a food tour. While we did buy food from three different places, we only ate at one of them during the tour — the other two we ended up eating back at our hotel after the tour had finished. That was the only part we didn’t really enjoy. Apart from that, Chef Hnoi was an excellent guide. She spoke very good English, answered all of our questions, showed us some beautiful and interesting parts of the city, and every recommendation she gave about Bangkok turned out to be spot on. We definitely recommend her as a guide for a memorable experience in Bangkok!Όμορφη εμπειρία!

Araya brought us to Wat Traimit and Wat Pho. We learned about Thai culture, history, about Buddhism and food and that you should bring a second set of clothes when you drive in a tuktuk during songkran. Araya took such good care of us. A friendly and charismatic person - get her a guide!Fantastic experience

Araya formulated the perfect multi-generational tour, including being very aware of the heat at this time of year. We could enjoy the sights and vibes in the way that worked for our family. She also threw in some thoughtful surprises and the kind of ‘insider’s perspective’ that you always hope for in a tour. Thank you 🙏 Perfect and personalised

We had an absolutely wonderful experience on our tour with Sudarat in Bangkok. She is a warm, friendly, and knowledgeable guide who made our day truly memorable. We started by visiting Wat Pho to see the breathtaking Reclining Buddha. Sudarat shared fascinating details about its history and significance, answering all our questions with enthusiasm and genuine passion for her culture. Afterward, we went to a floating market and then enjoyed an exhilarating long-tail boat ride, which gave us a unique perspective of Bangkok’s waterways. Finally we asked her to take us to the Sikh Gurdwara, which she found for us and was also genuinely interested to visit the Gurdwara with us. Sudarat’s friendly demeanor and knowledge made the tour both informative and enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Bangkok!Bangkok Experience with a Fantastic Guide

Our family of 2 adults and 2 kids really enjoyed our tour of the grand palace, some temples, a flower market and a food market with Nok. Nok is such a nice person, she made the day really memorable for us all. We definitely couldn't have created the itinerary ourselves, we saw so much in a half day but yet the pace was perfect. The snacks we had in the food market was rhe nicest food we had in Bangkok. The tour was worth every penny. Thanks Nok! Excellent tour with Nok

We really enjoyed our street food tour with Sudarat she showed us some great spots to get local street food and snacks . We even went back to some of the spots when we returned to Bangkok two weeks later. Can highly recommend Sudarat as a guide as she gives you enough information about the food and area and she’s very friendly. She even walked with us to the metro station to make sure we were on the right line to get back to our hotel.Great Street Food

From the moment we met Jojo in the hotel lobby, we knew we were in for something special. We had hoped for an experience beyond the usual sightseeing—and Jojo delivered big time. Our wish list? Temples, hidden klongs, charming backstreets of Bangkok—and to get around like locals, on boats and tuk-tuks. Jojo clicked instantly with our boys (11 and 14). Within minutes, there were high-fives, laughs, and that rare kind of energy that makes kids feel like part of the adventure. Meanwhile, we parents could just soak it all in—Jojo’s stories, insights, she made it feel like we had a local friend showing us her Bangkok. The whole experience was effortless to plan—booking was smooth, the itinerary was customized and Jojo managed to exceed our expectations. And the grand finale? Cruising back to our hotel in a longtail boat during a torrential downpour—completely drenched and grinning from ear to ear. Unforgettable. Temples, hidden klongs of Bangkok

Jojo is the most wonderful guide and we can not recommend her enough. She customized the tour to all of our wishes and we had a perfect experience from booking until way after the end of our tour. She was very well organized, knowledgeable and very attentive to all of the members of our family of five. We tried lots of different snacks and food we would not have found by ourselves and had many yummie and funny moments. Even after our tour she helped us, when a different Guide from another company didn’t show up the day after. She helped us finding a new tour starting less than an hour later and saved our day. Wonderful guide and a very very kind human being with a wonderful personality. Book a tour with her if you can, you won’t regret it!Most wonderful guide - best day in Bangkok

We had a super short window in Bangkok and were honestly melting in the crazy heat, but Nok made our half-day temple tour an absolute breeze. She managed to get us through all three of the key temples, never once rushing us—even though we were slow thanks to the heat and our constant photo stops 😅 What really stood out was how thoughtful and kind she was: always checking if we had enough water, making sure we had bathroom breaks, even waiting patiently while we tried not to melt—and feeding us too! She even extended her time with us without a fuss. Just a genuinely warm and generous person. Nok isn’t just a guide—she’s someone you feel like you’ve known forever. She told us so many beautiful little stories about Thai culture, not just the textbook stuff, and you can really tell she loves her country and loves sharing it. She answered our hundreds of questions about Buddhism, Thai customs, daily life—you name it—and was genuinely curious about our culture too, which made the whole experience feel like a great conversation with a new friend. If you’re booking a tour in Bangkok, book it with Nok. She’s the best. 💛 Highly, highly recommend!Bangkok in the Heat — Nok Made it Easy!

20 mayo 2025

Really enjoyable tour. Sudarat was absolutely lovely, friendly, and knowledgeable. She introduced us to places and tastes we would never have found on our own. We visited a couple of eat-in cafes, explored a farmers market, and sampled eats at various food stalls. The variety of dishes was amazing, from morning glory to the infamous durian (which I liked!), and even some more adventurous options like fermented eggs (which I opted out of trying!). I am coeliac and therefore have to avoid gluten - something the Thai people aren’t familiar with so Sudarat was invaluable and did a great job checking ingredients and making sure everything was safe for me to eat. I could relax and not worry about what I was eating. Whether you're a foodie, got food intolerances, or just looking to experience the real Bangkok, I highly recommend this tour with Sudarat. The food is all included so we found it good value. Fantastic tour, ate lots and learnt lots!

(About local Apicha)

4 mayo 2025

To the point: Apicha is a super nice guy, interesting stories/conversationalist, knows His food and beverages (gives great recs), and cares about your experience. I just kicked back and relaxed while he showed me around. We ate, drank, and had a few laughs. Time well spent. For context: I have been lucky to travel all over the world. As a US child spending summers abroad with foreign grandparents, as a young person with a backpack, as an expat employee, and more recently as part of my career. So I’ve had almost every type of trip, tour guide, and independent traveler experience to be had. But until last week I had never been to Bangkok. And unfortunately my time was limited until my last evening. That said, I would hire him no matter what type of time / trip I was on (relaxed vacation or rushed) and trust him to manage the vibe. In a few hours we saw some of the city by Tuk Tuk, had some laughs eating bugs with other tourists met along the way, had some amazing food at unexpected places one, and had some more laughs with some local bartenders at a few good spots.Great intro to bangkok

Chef Hnoi provided us with a wonderful tour of the Grand Palace, Wat Pho, a long boat ride and more for a great introduction to Bangkok. She managed the pace well to suit our family of 4 adults and 3 children, and provided commentary to assist the kids learn as well as the adults. She provided great information on local history and culture. Chef Hnoi ensured our family memories of our short Bangkok stay are enhanced by pointing out great photo points and also capturing some great photos of the family with wonderful backgrounds for us.

We had a 16hr layover between flights. We wanted to see some unique sights around Bangkok during our short visit. So I arranged a tour with Chef Hnoi. She was very prompt in meeting us at the airport. Hnoi had the whole day planned perfectly. But she was also flexible to include whatever we wanted to do. We rode the train into the Mae Klong station markets. Visited a temple held up by trees and then took a boat ride to the floating markets. We enjoyed looking around. By then temperatures were soaring to 36 degrees so we decided to end our day at the MBK shopping mall in Bangkok. Hnoi had organised a fantastic private car for our travels and the comfy seats and safe driver were perfect for some weary travellers. Hnoi speaks perfect English and is willing to accommodate your every need. Highly recommended.Perfect cultural experience of Bangkok

Joining the food tour with Araya around Bangkok was one of the best decisions of my trip! From the moment we met, Araya’s enthusiasm and deep knowledge of Thai cuisine and culture shone through, making the experience both delicious and enlightening. We visited some of Bangkok’s most vibrant fresh food markets, where the colors, aromas, and energy were absolutely mesmerizing. Araya introduced me to a variety of unique and mouth-watering dishes, many of which I had never even heard of before. Each stop was carefully chosen and offered something different — from spicy street food favorites to delicate traditional sweets. What truly set this tour apart was the way Araya wove in the cultural and historical significance of each dish. She explained how food is deeply intertwined with Thai life, family traditions, and regional identities, giving every bite a story and deeper meaning. It wasn’t just about eating (though there was plenty of that!); it was about truly understanding and appreciating Thai culinary heritage. Araya’s passion was contagious. She answered every question thoughtfully and always had a smile on her face. If you want to taste authentic Thailand and learn about the heart and soul behind the flavors, I cannot recommend this tour with Araya highly enough. It was a great addition to my Bangkok visit and an experience I’ll be talking about for years to come!Culinary Adventure Through Bangkok’s Heart

I booked two tours with Nok while I was still at home in NZ, this is the first time I have used such a service and so was a little unsure what to expect. I also have a disability that can create mobility challenges (I use a walking stick) and was unsure also about how that would be accomodated. Nok took away any worries, the tour was at my pace and she was always highly aware of when I needed a break from walking, more water or something to eat. The two tours I went on were well worth the time and money and I could not have been happier. Nok is very knowledgeable and I was able to learn about local culture and history from someone enthusiastic about her country and work. I highly recommend Nok to guide you and especially if you have a disability. I highly recommend Nok to show you around

We had an amazing time with Sudarat. We loved the fact that she took us to the reclining Buddha and showed us around and due to songkran were there were many events taking place. We got to do sand castles , add golden leaves on our buddhas. The kids loved feeding the turtles at another temple she took us , she got us traditional thai tea and the kids fed the turtles meatballs and papaya. We also loved the tuk tuk ride and walking through the flower market. Kids enjoyed their ice cream and we enjoyed our mango sticky rice! At the end she even organised for us to take a private long tail boat through Bangkok’s canals which was so interesting. The kids spotted lots of monitor lizards and we even fed the catfish that live in the canals ! Highly recommend ! Everything was amazing but I think maybe it was a bit pricey for what it was , but as parents with two small children (3 years old and 5,5 years old) I guess it helped not having to think or organize and queue for a long time. We just followed sudarat and that was nice ! Amazing experience with kids!
