Had a great time!
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!

A Brilliant Local Experience in Bangkok
I found Tuangtip through the Withlocals website while planning a short solo trip to Bangkok. Wanting to make the most of my limited time—and take the stress out of planning—I was also looking for a bit of company and, most importantly, to feel safe while exploring the city.
Tuangtip was the perfect guide. She took me through the heart of Bangkok, showing me stunning temples, bustling markets, and hidden gems along the way. It wasn’t just sightseeing; hearing the stories and history behind each place brought the city to life in a way no guidebook ever could. I genuinely felt more like a traveller than a tourist.
What made the experience so special was how personal it felt. Having a one-to-one tour made me feel truly seen and valued—it wasn’t just a standard route or script. Tuangtip was warm, knowledgeable, and completely accommodating throughout.
I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking to explore Bangkok in a meaningful and authentic way. It’s the kind of experience that stays with you.

A lot of food and insights
Really loved the tour with Piyaporn.
She tailored my tour based on my requests. I didn't like some of the food offered but it was good to try!

Fantastic experience Floating market
I was hesitating taking the trip to the floating and the train market considering it too crowded and too touristy. But with our local guide Nat everything went very smooth and the experience was very pleasant and interesting. He knew what was the best spot to watch the train, to buy souvenirs, to have lunch, to park the car. Nat speaks very vey good English as he lived abroad for over 20 years.
