    Awesome Food Experience and great guide!
    We enjoyed our tour with Donald very much! Great food experience and detailed information about food culture and ingredients. Beside of the tastings on the street, the market visit was definitely a highlight! Unbelievable variety of fruits, vegetables, fish, seafood and different meat, accompanied by little food stalls where You can taste everything! Donald was a great host, funny, informative, the perfect guide! 100% recommended!

    Lovely afternoon walking in Bangkok
    It was my teen daughter’s first time in Bangkok and this was the kind of tour that we were looking for. Not the cookie cutter kind that brings you in big tour buses and just goes thru the motions of the temples and city landmarks. Chef Hnoi took us to BKK gems from a local’s perspective, and along the way met her friends and colleagues working in the markets, handmade craft artisans, etc. She was also able to customize the tour for us according to what we wanted to see. We did not realize that we have been walking around for 3 hours because every moment was both entertaining and informative. The highlight for us was going to the local food and flower market, and visiting the subway station that had artifacts from hundreds of years back. Of course the temple visits were a must, and our timing was perfect as it was away from the busy crowds. Highly recommend Chef Hnoi with her extensive knowledge and great communication skills! Oh and did I mention that she takes great photos too?

    Moddy is the best!
    Moddy was AMAZING! She teaches you so much about Thai 🇹🇭 food and culture. If you are an experienced thai food taster, she offers you the chance to eat like the locals in Bangkok. She also speaks perfect English and makes you feel comfortable. WE LOVED IT! We will request her again for another tour next time we are in Bangkok.

    A great day in Bangkok
    We spent a wonderful day in Bangkok with Artty. Artty is a very pleasant, experienced guide with extensive knowledge of Thailand and especially Bangkok, who gave us an unforgettable experience. Artty is very spontaneous and was able to respond immediately when we surprised him with some special requests. We would book him again at any time and can recommend Artty as a travel guide without reservation! Thank you very much! We look forward to seeing you again!

    Exploring Bangkok with a great guide
    Tai is an amazing host with very good English. She is listening very well and tries to comfort all needs of her guests. With a great sense of humor she is giving you a great introduction of her culture. Exploring Bangkok with her was a tasty, inspiring and fun experience.

    Tasty food market tour
    Spending the day with such an amazing host who truly made everything possible to feel welcome, comfortable and well-taken care of. Thanks to Miau (hope I used the right spelling for her nickname) I had the opportunity exploring three different food markets, tasting plenty of fruits and dishes and had no questions left. Her great English, knowledge about her culture and openness made this experience special to me

    Wonderful experience with Chef Hnoi
    We never would have experienced Bangkok the way we did without Chef Hnoi and only wish we would have booked her earlier in our trip! Our family of 8 booked a tour with Chef Hnoi and everyone is still talking about how much they enjoyed the experience. Chef Hnoi was very tactful in organizing the tour based on interests and language and physical capabilities of our large family. Hnoi walked us through a local shopping center where we learned about and tried local foods, and she pointed out some trustworthy vendors. She then walked us through the flower market and helped us find/try a local fruit a friend had recommended. Hnoi was always quick to point out what was unique about each of the places and items we experienced. For instance, a small museum that’s a hidden gem inside an MRT station! We then headed to a local temple. The highlight of the tour was her knowledge about the history of the places we visited, the etiquette to follow, and the important meanings of what we saw to local culture. At the end, we asked for recommendations for a local eatery and she made sure we were taken care at the restaurant before she left us. She is also an excellent photographer and sent us some beautiful pictures at the end! We loved every moment of our experience and wholesome recommended Chef Hnoi!

    Walking meditation and much more !
    Our guide Khant was highly knowledgeable and very elegant. It was thoughtful to combine knowledge of the history- traditional story telling ( she was engaging ) and a blessing. Did aspire to meet the monks and meditate a little at least with them but our walking meditation with Khant made up for that. Highly recommended to seek out Khant- beautiful guide !

    Guided Tour in Bangkok with Chef Hnoi
    Our familiy had 4 days in Bangkok, in which we wanted to learn more about the highlights and history of the city. We chose Chef Hnoi from Withlocals to guide our tour. She guided us through temples, China town and the Flower marked. We had a really great day (a bit warm :-) ), and learned a lot about Bangkok. Our guide's English skills (she have lived in USA for many years) made communication very easy. A big thank you to Chef Hnoi!

    Amazing tour in the canals
    We had an amazing tour with Tuangtip who showed us more than we expected. She's a very warm and welcoming person. She showed us many places in the canals and told us interesting stories. We got lots of information about the old and the new days. We would definitely book Tuangtip again.

    Artty was fantastic!
    Artty was an excellent guide - we spent our first day in Bangkok with him and it was the best possible way to kick off our trip. Artty was friendly, enthusiastic, and so informative! We saw so many sites including multiple temples. Normally our eyes would have glazed over by the time we hit temple #3 but Artty had such fascinating stories about each one the afternoon flew by! He taught us so much about the cultural history and significance of what we were looking at, I feel like I have a much deeper appreciation for the Thai culture and its people. We also walked past many food stalls and got to try a variety of local snacks. Of note, we also got to experience multiple modes of local transportation - tuktuk, boat, bus… it was all so fun! Artty was great with our 11 yr old son too. If you have a sense of adventure and want to learn about Thai history and culture, then I would absolutely recommend Artty 100%! Thank you Artty for a wonderful day in Bangkok! A+

Maneerat (Nui) was such a lovely guide! From the beginning of our tour, it felt like my mum and I had just caught up with a friend, not a tour guide. Nui was so friendly, funny, extremely knowledgeable and
was able to answer all our questions with detail. She showed us delicious street food that we may not have had the chance to try without her and helped us navigate our way through some very fun and busy parts of the area -we felt like true locals! I would recommend Nui to anyone who wants a tour to remember! 10/10, thank you so much Nui!

My husband and I booked a tour with Wachinee for an evening food and
market tour. We had a wonderful experience. She can customize your
tour, just let her know in advance what you are looking for. We walked
and talked and ate and then went to a sky bar for cocktails. It was a
very nice experience. We highly recommend!

Not one that i would highly recommend. Our tour guide was young and although really nice, she was almost inexperienced in dealing with customers and sites. We were taken through dark, alley sort of short cuts, and the roof top bar although nice was so dark that we couldn't get good pictures. We did go to China town to see and taste some of the local foods and that was it. If you are going to do this tour, ensure that you book with a reputable company and that you are told whats included. We were disappointed to find out that it was not the culinary experience we had hoped for.

Unless you like to practically run after your tour guide on crazy busy dark streets and listen to her shout directions at you in a horse voice this tour is not for you! I touched base with our guide and told her about my family and we just wanted to see some of the night scenes in Bangkok - she proceeded to take us to the red light district and talk at length about the gay and prostitution population. When I asked if we could move on she took us to a tuk tuk - 5 of us crowded in one (we are 6’5”, 6’2”, 6’1” and 6’) and zoomed us to a dead sky bar for a 1/2 pu t of beer. Not the first night we dreamed of!

We had a great night tour with Maneerat, who was very friendly and
well organised. Maneerat planned a great city tour that flowed
perfectly from attraction to another and alot was done in a short
amount of time, would diffently recommend Maneerat to my family and
friends.

Big was able to alter and customize a night life tour in Bangkok to
fit it to our requests. We unfortunately could only schedule a tour
for a Monday, and we originally wanted to do a street food tour but
due to Monday being street cleaning day in Bangkok, that tour isn't
really available. Big was able to customize the nightlife tour to have
us go to a night market and sample multiple different local foods, and
then get a small taste of the nightlife as well. On top of that Big is
very conversational and engaging. He knows his stuff, but can also
shoot the breeze. We would do another tour with Big if we had time,
and certainly recommend taking a tour with him to others.

Nonglak was a great guide! She tailored the evening to allow us to explore the street food scene, rooftop bars and even built in a visit to the famous Jay Fai. Nonglak is knowledgeable, enthusiastic and
curious... great fun.
