“Best Tour Guide you could ask for”
Saroj is the most genuine, kind and caring tour guide. He goes over and above. I was dubious booking as he had so few reviews but i am so pleased i followed my gut instinct and we choose Saroj. He is charming, polite and extremely courteous. When i emailed him 6 months ago, i asked him to prepare an itinerary for myself and 17 year old son. i gave a few places which were a must but the rest was all Saroj’s suggestion. He combined culture and experiences so that we covered both mine and my son’s needs. I even asked about what we should do in the evenings and again he gave lovely ideas and actually booked the evening activities. These were so varied from a Dinner River Cruise, Muay Thai boxing and the Ladyboys of Bangkok. Two weeks before arriving I was full of questions to which he replied in an extremely polite and detailed way - he even told me how to get to the taxi rank in the airport! On meeting Saroj, I knew within 5 minutes that we were in the best hands. Saroj’s breadth of knowledge about Thai culture, history, geography and religion gave us an incredible insight into Thailand. He was so thoughtful, for example bringing cultural foods for us to try, continuously offering to pay for his own food, and offering to wait outside a venue the whole evening just to give us a ride out hotel. Saroj offered to take photos of my son & I so i have wonderful memories. I was also incredibly grateful that Saroj had a large, comfortable and clean car with air conditioning, which was a blessing in the Bangkok weather!

“Oh my goodness, Leo is wonderful ”
Leo is such a kind and friendly guide. He has a great knowledge of the sites he took us to. And he had arranged for a driver, which was totally unexpected. We truly enjoyed our day with Leo and we would love to see more of Bangkok with him when we come back.

Dear Karen, Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with giving a nice review. I am very appreciated and promise to continue a good work on my work. I hope to see you back again in the future. Regards, Saroj Y.
Yes! Why? Because Bangkok can get hectic if you're not a local who knows how the city operates. From zooming motorbikes and shifting tuk-tuk prices to cultural customs, Thailand's capital can be overwhelming.
A local guide will help streamline your visit, eliminating awkward encounters, heavy language barriers, and potential legal issues. Avoid culture shock by creating your itinerary with our Bangkok guides.
The average tourist spends 9 days in Thailand and 3-4 days in Bangkok. We recommend spending 4-5 days touring Bangkok so you'll have enough time to explore the city's major attractions.

Absolutely. Tour guides ensure your safety by acting as a buffer between you and your new surroundings. Tour guides are essential when you have questions about the culture, customs, and norms of a county as culturally diverse as Thailand.
Our private guides have the added benefit of customizing your itinerary to suit your travel schedule, so no rowdy tour groups with strangers or scheduling delays from waiting for others outside your travel circle.
