    You’ve probably seen it on TV, a Muay Thai match. Your host can take you to the local stadium, where you can feel the vibe of a real boxing match. You can ask as many questions about this sport and talk about why it has become a local tradition. If you are more adventurous, you might want to give it a try yourself.

The privilege of being in someones hime

I had a wonderful evening of insights into the life of a modern Thai woman in Bangkok. Being invited into her home and watching parentheses and even helping cook a traditional Thai meal was a great experience. Warner answered all my questions with friendliness and openness, gave me good tips about Thai cooking and discussed what living in Bangkok was like. All in all this is a really unique opportunity and amidst the bustle of Bangkok and all its wonderful sites, was a different quiet and enriching experience. I would highly recommend this

A perfect and autentic Thai dinner

Meaw is just fantastic, she welcomes you into her home and she immediately puts you at ease. We talked with her through the app before we booked the experience, she customized the dinner based on our food allergies or for example how spicy we like our food. The food it’s just amazing, you can not taste the same in any restaurant for obvious reason, the food that you will eat in this experience is cooked right there and just for you. We cooked together with Meaw pad thai, she explained everything to us about our food but also we had long chats about Thailand culture.

Sakyant experience

This was an amazing experience, Natcha is amazing, friendly and patient, not only did she make the whole process smooth and understandable, she improved it with her upbeat attitude. She ended up giving me an hour extra of her time as we have a real Thai meal afterwards. Best tour guide ever!
