Glad we took you dear Piyaporn!
started the day early by her recommendation, but then needed a good coffee, and thankfully, the sweet driver and her stopped at our favorite spot and waited even though traffic is a challenge! appreciate it!
Piyaporn has great knowledge, and we received all info by her, then my mom wanted to put on costumes and take pictures, and at the end og the trip, my parents were very tired (arrived in Thailand the day before) and we wanted to shorten the trip.
Everything was accepted with a big smile, she took some amazing photos for us and I'm very happy we got to see Ayyutthaya and learn a lot about the area and history. Thank you! :) Thank you!
Piya was a delight to walk Bangkok with. She planned a tour that touched on many facets of the city while staying comfortable in high temperatures. She was knowledgeable, kind, and attuned to the interests of all of us. Our 3 hour tour lasted 4 and a half hours and brought us through markets, malls, and temples. Her English is very understandable. Highly recommend!!Bangkok Exploration with Expert Guide
Piyaporn gave us an interesting and personalized tour of Bangkok that included many places we would have never found on our own. We tried new foods, learned how to fold lotus leaves and visited local markets. She is very knowledgeable about Thai history and the city. It was an excellent tour!An excellent tour of hidden gems!
We had a truly wonderful experience with Piyaporn. She was informative, kind, fun to be with, and really went out of her way to show us the area, the foods in the market and to ensure that we had an incredible tour. I would highly recommend her and this tour to anyone. I appreciated that it included the motorized boat tour at the end when we went through the neighborhood on the water by the temple. That was interesting to see and not something other tours offered. A truly wonderful experience
We really enjoyed our time with Piyaporn. She is a great and experienced guide. We understand much better the Buddhism and Thai culture after this tour. Piyaporn knows a lot about Buddhism. It was great to be able to speak to a monk. It was a hot day and she paid attention to find fresh places, offered us drinks, and took the time. We can highly recommend her!
This was a really great experience, especially since my 4 teenagers can sometimes lose interest fast. Not this time! The day had just enough enough switching of activities to keep everyone happy as we didn't stay in any one place (or boat) too long. The van they picked us up in couldn't have been nicer - I mean it was first class! At the floating market, the
canal boat ride we took before we switched to a paddle boat for the floating market was really nice - we enjoyed seeing the different 'neighborhoods' and we saw several huge monitor lizards. I do feel like going with With Locals made the experience better than most of those I have done with Get Your Guide or Viator. It was the little things like Piyaporn taking the initiative to grab things for us at the floating market (that she paid for) like bananas fried in coconut milk, coconut ice cream, mango sticky rice, etc. She would just grab something and say "Try this!". Or the cold wet towels when we got back in the van at the end of the day to head home. And the super nice driver we had. And I'm not sure if it happens on every booking, but we also got to make a quick stop (on the canal tour) at a property with some amazing old Chinese boats and some of the most beautiful large Thai carvings I have seen since arriving. I wasn't sure if driving an hour and half from Bangkok would be worth it but it totally was. I've never seen anything like the floating market and when you couple that with canal tour, the railway market and coconut farm - it was a total yes for us. And I would absolutely book with With Locals again. My family of 6 was well taken care of
Piyaporn is an absolutely perfect guide. She is extremely knowledgeable, created a great agenda and lovely as well. She navigated around the sites really well, had interesting information pitched at the right level and also picked a great lunch spot which gave us an insight into another aspect of Thai culture (food!) in addition to the fascinating history. I could not recommend her more.Perfect tour!
We had a wonderful food tour with Piyaporn! We tasted several different street foods, a few dishes at a restaurant, and many tastings at the local market. The food was phenomenal and we tried a diversity of dishes. She explained how the food was made, the cultural/regional significance, and the history of Thailand. We never felt rushed and she made it easy for us because she took care of everything (ordering food, paying for it, ordering a tuk tuk ride to the market). The day after the tour, Piyaporn sent us recommendations for local restaurants near our hotel and near the sites we saw that day. As expected, they were delicious! Overall, we highly recommend the 10 Tastings of Bangkok tour with Piyaporn.Fantastic Food Tour
We had a wonderful private tour with Piyaporn and her kind driver. They think about everything to make the trip a special experience, starting from cold tissues for the face to local sweets on the way. Piyaporn knows Ayutthaya very will including the history and local customs. She is also a very professional photographer and knows all the good spots. We can highly recommend you he tour with her and would go with her again at any time. Thank you very much for a great experience!Perfect guide for a day in Ayutthaya!
