My Highlights and Hidden Gems Tour with Taungtip was the perfect tour of Bangkok and I highly recommend a tour with her. Taungtip speaks very good English that’s easy to understand and she’s very knowledgeable and kind. Our meeting stop was easy to find but I was late because of taxi issues, and she was understanding and patient about it. We started our tour in the most beautiful historic indoor market with individual unique stalls of royal and historic foods. I tried several delicious snacks and even bought some for the hotel. Taungtip bought some for me to try and explained the history of the various stalls and shops and the vendors were all so friendly. The upper floors were shops of Thai silks and brocades, and traditional celebration costumes, just beautiful. Taungtip took me to the flower market, produce market, on a tuk tuk, the boat ferry, the Wat Aron and all the while explained interesting history and facts. She was so kind with the people we encountered and we laughed and smiled continuously. I didn’t want our tour to end but she gave me great information on how to continue my day at the Grand Palace, Queen Sirikit Museum of Textiles (free with Palace ticket), Wat Pho with the reclining Buddha, and end the day with traditional dance at the Royal Palace (which was also free with my Palace ticket). I cannot recommend this tour with Taungtip enough! I would have toured with her again if I’d had time. Not all my Bangkok tour guides were special like her.
We really had a great time with Saravarint touring Bangkok! We were here on business and had an afternoon to spare, so we booked a last minute tour. We met up with her and first asked if we could do some shopping to get some souvenirs for our wives. She took us to a place where the locals shopped and found us some good deals. Then we toured a few outdoor markets before heading to see the temples. She was very friendly and funny. We really appreciated her knowledge of the Thai history and culture. I would recommend her for your visit to Thailand!
Michele was an amazing guide for us. We walked most of the tour to see the highlights of the city. Great background knowledge about the history but also relevant details about the Berlin of today. Great that she ended the trip by sharing an overview of the highlights to do oer neighborhood! We enjoyed our time together very much. Tip: schedule a tour by bike with Michele to cover more ground.
The food tour with Paola was wonderful. The great variety of tastings of typical Roman food was amazing but she also provided lots of history and facts about Rome. Her love of the city certainly showed. Her experience and knowledge of the area we toured was amazing - we saw little courtyards, alleyways, architecture and ancient sites we never would have found on our own. Thank you Paola!
