Had an awesome day with Artty, he took time to understand the areas I particularly wanted to see and tailored the day around the key sites. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to get an overview of Bangkok and see large amounts of this city!Incredible!

Nice bycicle trip and the longtail boat was fun. We saw narrow streets we wouldn t walk in without guide. Really enjoyed the start of our holiday. We had a wonderful day with Tony.

We had an exciting day, Artty had a lot of knowledge and showed us beautiful places of Bangkok where you would not go without a bicyvle. It was fun driving through the market, very tiny ways and bigger street, been to beautiful temples and the boat ride at the end a nice view. We will never forget the tour with Artty!Thank you for the perfect day!

Artty did a fantastic job. The tour was just amazing and due to Artty‘s very professional guidance I felt more secure on my bicycle in Bangkok than in Germany. Rushing through these narrow streets was jus exciting. During our trip we visited various very different temples and I learned a lot about buddhism. Artty is not only very knowledgeable but he also transports his knowledge brilliantly. That‘s outstanding. Highly recommended. The tour and Artty.Amazing trip by bike

Artty was amazing. He was personally recommended by someone who did the tour, so we chose him specifically. Great plan - he is so funny/knowledgable/patient. We loved cycling down the small streets/alleys and through markets. Such great memories. We did it as a couple and would highly recommend. Artty introduced us to train market street food 😀. We experienced the real Bangkok

It was our first full day in Bangkok and we wanted to dive right into it! We figured that it would be pretty easy to do the major tourist attractions on our own so we were excited to have Artty as our personal guide for a deeper view of the city. When he realized we hadn’t been to Bangkok before, he slowed down at the beginning of the tour to make sure he showed us areas of interest before the tour “officially” even started! Biking through Bangkok - the city streets and the narrow alleyways - was kind of like a game of mental fortitude and I side swiped a number of walls and a few people but it was all good fun. And the people I basically ran into were extremely generous with this clutzy American. Highlights were seeing and praying to our birthday Buddha, the extraordinary craftsmanship that goes into every element of the temples, an espresso tonic at a family run coffee roastery, and getting to learn more about Artty over lunch. Highly, highly recommend this tour and Artty as your guide. Money very well spent and we won’t soon forget this day. A perfect introduction to Bamgkok!

I can’t emphasize enough that you’ll have a wonderful tour if you have Artty as your tour guide. He was very patient and helpful especially when it came to riding bikes. He is a delightful and knowledgeable person. We love to ride bikes around new cities and he kept us safe. The boat ride at the end was fun too. Can’t go wrong touring with Artty!

Of all the magical delights we saw in Bangkok one of the best and most delightful was Artty! He took such great care of us we felt like we were in the hands of a treasured good friend. Artty is funny, energetic and entertaining with a warmth and generosity you don’t often find. Every trip and venue revealed unexpected little surprises to create lifelong memories. We can’t thank him enough for making our time in Bangkok truly unforgettable ! Thank you Artty!The best delight of all

Artty went above and beyond to make sure our family’s first tour in Thailand was an amazing one. Artty’s knowledge of the city and history of the temples was appreciated but his kindness to my family and ability to be flexible was awesome. My daughters both struggled with the heat/humidity our first day here. Artty made sure they were well taken care of and adjusted to tour to have more boat time and less biking time to help. His bright and funny personality, along with his storytelling would make him my top choice for touring Bangkok!Bangkok Bike and Boat Tour with Artty

If you would like to a different type of tour this was great. The bike element I was concerned about but it was super safe and saw things you definitely wouldn’t have seen without a bike. Arty was fun and knowledgeable without being boring. We fed turtles with papaya went through all the districts and saw temples. We would highly recommend. Fantastic tour with Arty

Thanks Arty. We loved cycling through the narrow pathways around Bangkok which gave us a completely different insight into life here for many. We thoroughly enjoyed all the sites and temples we visited and appreciate your knowledge; educating us well especially about Buddism Would have loved to do more which I guess can only be a good thing. Thank you so much. I would highly recommend this tour Great trip

One guided tour to remember. Artty brings you to places which you as a tourist normally would not see and tell you many things about Bangkok i.e. religion, day-to-day life etc. We highly recommend the tour especially if you only are in Bangkok for a few days.A way to see/learn a lot

Artty was the most fantastic tour guide we’ve ever had. We took the bike tour of Bangkok with 2 teenagers and he made it so much fun and interesting the same time. We wove through back streets and discovered places that we never would have found on our own including food stalls, street art and of course temples!! My kids thought he was entertaining and the amount of energy he had and effort he put into the tour was astounding. Artty definitely made us fall in love with Bangkok!! He also gave us restaurant tips plus other secret Bangkok tips that made our time in Bangkok not only memorable but also easier- thx Artty we will always appreciate you - highly recommend Amazing Artty!!!

We only had a few days in Bangkok and reached out to Artty at short notice and with some special requests (as we had done a night bike tour in the past). Artty was extremely fast and came up with a great 4h itinerary and loads of great stories so that it was a true please four our family (including our 18 year old daughter) to run this tour with him. Artty is a very nice guide, creating a great atmosphere and bringing across the Thai spirit. Super experience, highly recommended !!!Excellent private bike tour with Artty

Arty is a great person! We had a wonderful time with him - exploring the neighborhoods by bike is a very special experience with a guide like Arty who grew up here and who knows a lot more than any other tour guide could share about the places we went to. It was a first class experience, thank you Arty!!! Very special tour with a fantastic guide

14 March 2023

What a great day! Informative and in a good mood, Attry guided us through the areas, temples and highlights unknown to most tourists. All by bicycle. This was challenging at first in Bangkok's traffic, but Attry guided us safely and confidently. For lunch we went to a street food market by a railway track - it was so delicious. I will definitely tour with Attry again on my next visit to Bangkok!Great day mit Attry!

We had a Greet time with Artty. He takes all the time you need and is a great storyteller. We visites Bangkok for the 7 time but Artty showed us many new things. We asked him to show us the real Bangkok. The Bangkok in the way the locals live and the story none of the tourists hear. Artty really came through! This man is a walking and talking history book. We recommend him to all visitors of Bangkok. Artty; thank you again for a great time! Warm regards, Dennis & LisaGeweldig / Magnificent!

Fabulous day out cycling on the quiet back roads and paths around Bangkok and return by water taxi. Great guide, Artty, and visited a number of places and temples not normally seen by tourists including a very local market. Highly recommended. Back streets of Bangkok cycle

I have contacted Artty via the website and was impressed by his swift response. It was on very short notice but he very quickly sent me personalised offer and I was able to book the bicycle & boat experience. I really enjoyed the bike trip through Bangkok, it was just perfect. On top of the must see spots, Artty showed me a lot hidden places which I wouldn’t otherwise have known about. He is a great story teller and has great sense of humour. I would highly recommend him!Couldn't be better than this!

Es war wirklich ein fantastischer Tag! Arttty hat uns mit dem Fahrrad und Longtailboot wunderschöne und interessante Stellen Bangkoks gezeigt und alles sehr gut erklärt. Auf eigene Faust hätten wir das niemals gesehen, waren schon öfter in Bangkok. Er spricht sehr gut Englisch und weiß unglaublich viel. Danke für diesen unvergesslichen Tag! Einfach fantastisch!

Artty was a great communicator and we met up easily. He had the bicycles ready and even added a basket for me. It was an ambitious 20K bike ride for us, through very narrow alleys and busy streets, but exciting and interesting. We saw things we would never have seen on our own, and ate beside the railway at one of the food carts. We had a memorable day. Memories that were so diverse and interesting. Thank you Artty!Amazing bike ride through back streets of Bangkok

Artty did a great job to show us Bangkok from a side you rarely get to see. Great bike tour, good explanations, a lot of fun and good mood. The longtail boat tour on the canal was another highlight. A great experience I can definitely recommend although the meeting point/bike shop was a bit tricky to findGreat Bike Toir

This was the first time we have booked through Withlocals and we would definitely do it again. We had a wonderful tour with Artty. Our driver was late dropping us off and dropped us in the wrong place. Artty was very accommodating and made his way to us. We have been to Bangkok before and were looking for a more local experience this time. Artty took us to new and interesting places - local markets, temples, and neighborhoods. Exactly what we wanted. As his page suggests, Artty is a great storyteller and fun to spend time with. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with him and the great recommendations he gave us for the rest of the day. Thanks, Artty! Perfect day in Bangkok with Artty

We got a message from Artty the day of our tour that he was sick. His friend, Tony, was the replacement and did a great job showing us the backstreets of Bangkok and giving us recommendations for food and a bar after our tour ended. We would never have gone to the speak-easy and really enjoyed it. Tony was also helpful in giving us advice for navigating the train system for other tours later in our trip. It was great introduction to Bangkok on our first day of our trip!A fun time with Tony

Artty and his driver Lou were great. They picked us up from the airport and drove us around to check out some temples and markets. We had a layover at an odd time but Artty made it work for us anyway. They brought us to eat at a delicious local spot when we got hungry. They were very kind and funny. 100% would recommend them for anyone wanting a knowledge guide. Amazing time with Artty!

We had such a fun and informative day with Artty - what a great way to start the trip! He is incredibly sweet and we learned so much about the Palace and Thai culture and history. Like others have said, he magically appears with tickets, water, etc and knows all the best shady spots! The day is whatever you want it to be - Artty took us to another local temple and a street market (where we ate at an amazing local restaurant!) and then showed us the way back to our hotel. Some in our group had been to the Palace before but we all learned so much and had a lovely time with Artty. Can’t recommend him enough!Great day at the Grand Palace with Artty!

Artty was a wonderful guide. He made sure we saw what we asked to do and was very patient with us as one person had a bad knee. He took photos for us all along the way. We would book with Artty again.Fun day

Artty is a fantastic guide. He knows everything about Bangkok and its history and wraps all his knowledge into his tours. We had a great time. I give Arty a top rating. However, the price of the tour is too expensive therefor only 5 points for the price value rating.A great time with Artty!

I rarely leave reviews but our experience with Artty as our guide for the floating market and train tour was simply so fantastic that I felt compelled to do so. Artty made contact immediately after I booked and then again prior to our tour. From the moment he collected us from our hotel, he and his driver (Luis) were simply first class and couldn’t have done more to make our day any more amazing. Artty was super knowledgeable, fun, kind and accommodating. I can’t recommend Artty enough. Thank you. Aimee & James. Book Artty - you won't be disappointed.
