My family and I had the best day with Chef Hnoi. Right from the start she was very engaging with our children, asking them lots of questions and encouraging them to ask questions in return. From the flower market to the temples, every step of the journey was fun and informative. Chef Hnoi made our short stay in Bangkok a memorable one, we cannot recommend Chef highly enough!Amazing day in Bangkok

My girlfriend and I booked with Chef Hnoi to get a whistle-stop tour of Bangkok in the short time we spent in the city. Hnoi was great and tailored our tour to see the things we wanted to see. We explored an array of temples and markets as Hnoi shared her wealth of culinary, cultural and historical knowledge. Very much recommend booking with Hnoi if you want to dive into the sights and tastes that Bangkok has to offer!Great Way to Explore Bangkok

Our family of 4 loved hanging out with Hnoi! Our kids are slow to warm to strangers but she impressed them by including them in conversations and slowing down when they needed in the heat. We saw parts of Bangkok that we wouldn't have otherwise.She's amazing!

Chef Hnoi has been a wonderful tour guide. She gave us ideas on where we could explore but also let us decide what to do. Chef Hnoi was so much fun to walk around with. She told us lots of Information about the city and recommended brilliant cafes. Thank you so much Hnoi for a brilliant time in Bangkok! A wonderful bespoke family tour - you see in for a great time if you are lucky enough to have Hnoi! Bangkok fun

As a family we do not tend to book tours but as we were visiting Thailand for the first time I decided to explore a day tour with a guide. Someone recommended WithLocals so I began to explore what was on offer in Bangkok. As a family who likes to learn about culture and also food, I was drawn to Chef Hnoi. She tailor made a day tour for us to have both a cultural tourist experience as well as visiting her local market for a culinary treat. From start to finish she was all I could have hoped for in a guide. Knowledgeable, full of interesting facts, she aimed the day at the correct pace and she took great photos of us the whole day so we can look back and remember the day. The food tour around her local market was a particular highlight as we would have never found or experienced it without her. We will be recommending her to our friends and definitely booking her again when we return to Bangkok. The Best Day in Bangkok

It was absolutely a pleasure to have met Chef Hnoi for the food tour. She is very knowledgeable about Thai cuisine and generously shares the area where she was born and grew up with us. Not only have we tried the authentic Thai curry as well as learnt the local way of eating it, but we also tasted several local snacks, which are packed with flavors. We even visited the market on another day as we just can’t get enough of those dishes. I can highly recommend this tour to anyone who really wants to know the authentic Thai cuisine. Chef Hnoi is definitely the one that can give you a forgettable culinary experience. Thank you very much for the great time. Best culinary experience in Bangkok ever!

What an amazing experience! Not only is Chef Hnoi a fantastic guide, but as a chef she has deep knowledge of food and had us try things multiple ways to enhance the experience. She took us round an area you would only only about if you were local and we tried some fantastic food: pad Thai, amazing soup, mango sticky rice and sever yummy snacks! Thai food is the best. Having lived in the US and Mexico for many years Chef Hanoi’s English is perfect and she is a delight to talk to about life in Bangkok. If we come back we will be doing another tour with her for sure! Best day ever!

Spending time with Hnoi, learning from her vast food and cultural knowledge was such a great experience. She is so wise and personable, it felt as if she could have been an auntie of mine. I learned and tasted so much from Hanoi and wish her and her mom a happy healthy year!My long lost auntie
