Hi there! Nice to meet you

Neena

After I graduated from Rajamangala University Of Technology Krungthep, in Tourism Management and obtained my guide's license. I started working for a very first year as a tourist guide. I found out that being a guide is not just to guide!.. For me, Not that easy but it is not too difficult either. It’s all about combination of abilities in ones. A useful of Knowledge, Management, Creativity etc., all for gain a better skill as a benefit of life. The challenging of my ability becomes one of my favorite things. Meeting different people or learning different culture always excite me for an exchange & sharing rather than just guiding.

My hobbies are cooking (Thai food) and traveling. I like learning recipe's of Thai food from different parts of the country. This made me always love to share the local & signature dishes of Phuket island to all visitors who love to uncover and taste Phuket's delicacy. Beside cooking, If I have many days off then I would go for camping at a national park or making a trip to discover my new destinations.

Phuket is called "Pearl of Andaman Sea"

Come and explore this lovely island and the fascinating of local culture here with me!

We had an absolutely wonderful day exploring Phuket with Neena as our guide! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized and tailored to our family’s interests. Neena took us to Wat Chalong, where our daughter, a big fan of Buddha, was captivated by the temple’s beauty and significance. The visit was both educational and serene, setting the tone for a meaningful day. One of the highlights was the batik painting experience at a local artist’s studio. It was such a unique and creative activity that the entire family enjoyed. We can’t wait to see the finished results and cherish this as a special memory of our trip. The viewpoints at Karon and Phromthep Cape were stunning, offering breathtaking views of Phuket’s landscape. Neena made sure we had plenty of time to take it all in and snap some amazing photos. Phuket Old Town was another standout, where Neena shared her deep knowledge of the culture and heritage. We appreciated having some time to explore the charming streets on our own as well. Lunch was an incredible experience—Neena took us to an authentic local spot where we tried dishes we’d never tasted before. Everything was delicious and gave us a true taste of Phuket’s cuisine. Having a private car throughout the tour was a bonus. It was comfortable, and Neena thoughtfully ensured we always had refreshing drinks to stay hydrated in the heat. Neena’s warm personality, excellent planning, and attention to detail made this tour unforgettable. If you’re looking for a guide who goes above and beyond, Neena is the one! Highly recommend!Family Adventure in Phuket with Neena

We are here in Phuket (first time) from Australia. We booked a 3 hour Highlights & Hidden Gems of Phuket Old Town, tour with Neena. Saying we were impressed is an understatement. Not only is Neena a great historian, she is also full local knowledge, a wonderful host, and fantastic person. We never would have been able appreciate the local history of Phuket Old Town without her. She was happy to answer our long list of questions and give advice. We highly recommend you ask for Neena because we know you'll not be disappointed. Thank you again for a wonderful experience which we'll never forget!Thank you Neena for an awesome time!

From the onset of our meeting, I knew this would be a wonderful day. I had requested additional locations to visit and Neena was more than prepared. She showed me a jewelry store that was beyond imagination. This factory not only made their own jewelry but had exactly what I was looking for. I needed a very unique piece for my wife. The other thing I had hoped for was an antique store. She didn't disappoint here either. Again finding exactly what I was looking for we began our trek to Old town. Neena has such a deep and personal knowledge of the history and cultures that created this beautiful place. Not only did we visit this secret secret hidden restaurant but also enjoyed shopping along the streets as she educated me to appreciate Phuket much more than I could have imagined. If anyone chooses this tour, I highly recommend Neena as your guide!Amazing guide!

Neena is an empathic guide who goes beyond the usual. While we signed up for a food tasting, we learnt a lot more—about her personal history, the history of the people of Phuket, the city, and everything that makes it so charming, including its sino-Portuguese architecture. Of course, she has great insights on local food and took us to eateries travellers usually don’t visit. She is well travelled herself, which enables her to weave in different cultural contexts in the course of conversation. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Phuket. Neena rocks!

Neena was a wonderful guide and top notch local food expert. The walking food tour is a doable option for couples, singles or family travelers. All the food that we tried was delicious and she accommodated our food choices and the level of adventure, spice and types of food we wanted to try. Our bellies were full and satisfied by the end of the tour. Highly recommend her if you are thinking of a food tour of old town Phuket.Amazing authentic food tour of Phuket

We loved this food tour with Neena! Not only did she take us to some restaurants we would never have found ourselves, she also gave a lot of interesting information about Phuket and Thai culture in general! I myself am a vegetarian, but my 3 friends are not, Neena went above and beyond to make sure that we all had an amazing tasting-experience! 5-star-plus-tour! :) We had a blast!
