Full day Tours in Valencia

I had the pleasure of engaging Tuangtip as a host at the very last minute for the Bangkok Hidden Jems tour. She was very friendly, accomodated all my requests and even let me tour extra sites. She was very patient and I could see that she wanted to make sure that I was satisfied with her tour. Highly recommended especially for those travelling solo.

We went on a walking food tour of Ho Chi Minh City with Spring. Can't say enough good things. She is knowledgeable, friendly, cheerful. We felt a real connection. It was clearly more than just a job for her. Two of us needed vegetarian food, and she knew just where to go--places we'd never have found on our own. We miss her. Hieu took us on a historical-architectural walking tour. He's extremely knowledgeable, outgoing, flexible. We passed an optician's store that was inhabited by a number of cats, so our tour stopped to visit the cats. Hieu helped us understand some of the painful history of the North-South-American war. Both led us through some of the narrow alleys of Ho Chi Minh City, bringing us to a part of the city we'd never otherwise see--a whole world whose existence we'd never expect.

Myself, my wife and our daughter thoroughly enjoyed our time with Vania who is a real Roman. We did the tour in the early evening and the amount of food that we tasted was more than enough for our usual evening meal. Vania steered us to foods and flavors that are uniquely Roman. The small establishments that she chose for us were a testament to the artisanal nature of their craft and also ones that she frequents with her family and friends. Vania finished our tour atop Janiculum Hill with a wonderful evening view of Rome - a fitting end to our first day in Rome.

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.
