Hi there! Nice to meet you

Ruetai

Hello, my name is Ruetai but you can call me Pai . I am a new local generation with travel experienced more than 10 years. I love to travel and have a service mind in the travel business.

Being a tour guide in Phuket Island is my career; I would like to offer my services to all visitors and tourists and welcome them to Phuket Island.

You should know that Phuket doesn't have only beaches and islands. It still has a lot of other interesting places to visit that reveal our culture and also many local foods.

I love Phuket because it always makes me happy to live here, and there is always something going on. And I love travelling and trying to find and discover new interesting places and activities on Phuket Island. While some tourists

are not too impressed with Phuket, this is most likely because their tours did not focus on the local people, culture, food, and sightseeing. The island is beautiful, and the people are friendly. You just need the right guide.

All of my tours are fun, and you'll learn about our culture, food, history, and what life is like on this beautiful island. Every place on the island and all of our local foods have their own story. You'll learn about these stories during our tour. I would be happy to personalize this tour to exactly what you want to see and do, just let me know your special request. Please pick me as your personal tour guide and I will help you enjoy our culture and food.

Pai was THE best guide we’ve had in all of Thailand. She was super sweet, accommodating, and knowledgeable of Thai cuisine. My girlfriend and I loved her energy! BEST TOUR GUIDE!

We were a group of girls celebrating a bride to be and we were lucky to experience Pai’s enthusiastic foodie tour through Old Phuket town. Every dish was delicious and we left with bellies full of yummy food and laughters to last a lifetime. Thank you Pai for the wonderful memories!!Amazing experience with Pai

We had such a blast on our full day city and food tour with Pai! Pai was super knowledgeable, fun, and also took pictures of us. We learned so much and had a great time exploring. We will book with her again when we come back 🙂Phuket Tour

Ruetai, What an amazing day we had with her! She arrived right on time, the coach was spotless, and the driver made us feel safe. We wandered around the old town, did a little shopping, and even spotted some monkeys on Monkey Hill. She led us through the Elephant Jungle Sanctuary, providing us with lots of interesting information. She was so attentive, knowledgeable, and just a joy to be around. Definitely the highlight of our trip. Thanks a million, "Pai"!Had the best day.

Pai met us in the lobby and we drove from Phuket Beach Club to the attractions. Pai is informed, engaged, and very personable, and encouraged and helped with my attempts at speaking Thai. The first scheduled attraction, the Big Buddha and its famous views over Phuket, was inaccessible due to some 2023 monsoon damage, so she substituted in the Crocodile Farm and Show The crocodile farm is a real farm which hosts about twenty of the behemoths, who luxuriate in warm waters awaiting their meal, a cage of small mammals who awaited their fates nervously. The farm’s owner offered Bill a hand’s on experience with a “hatchling” croc, and he cradled it like a baby as its cool firm flesh wriggled in his hands. I think the croc was more nervous that I was the predator, and that she was helpless with her mouth taped closed. Then it was time for the show. A muscular Thai guy jumped into a shallow pool with the crocs and dragged, kicked and prodded them awake. He tempted their jaws with his outstretched hands and stared them face to face, daring them to snap, but he always avoided calamity. It was animal exploitation, PETA would not be amused, but fortunately they are preoccupied with elephants and the croc show goes on. Bill and Cindy bought wallets made from the hides of last year’s croc stars. I’ll remember the show every time it pull it from my pocket. We went on to visit Wat Chalong, a gilded Wat featuring a tiny shard of Buddha's bones, and Phuket Old Town, touristy but fun and scenic. In between, Pai introduced us to a Michelin listed Thai Restaurant where we feasted on some of the best ever Thai Dishes. We finished at the City overlook where Pai photographed us with the beauty of Phuket as our backdrop. Great visit with a great guide.Falling in love with Phuket

What an amazing trip we just had with Ruetai! We did the sunrise at Phang Gna bay. We left our hotel at 4am, which was hard to do, but totally worth it. We were able to get to some beautiful spots with very few people there, which made it incredible, considering I've seen pictures with tons of people fighting to get pictures. Ruetai made the excursions perfect by giving us all the time and information we wanted. She made sure we had coffee at sunrise, waters along the way and took us to a local Thai restaurant for lunch. She is so sweet! My wife and I highly recommend this trip and booking with Ruetai! Highly Recommended
