“Authentic coconut experience beyond expectations”
Saroj was an exceptional guide and truly made our experience in Bangkok unforgettable. We booked a personalized tour focused on coconut production and value-added techniques, and it exceeded all our expectations. We were able to experience true authenticity, visiting production sites up close and discovering every step of the process, including coconut sugar making. Everything was absolutely incredible. Saroj took us to local and authentic places we would never have found on our own, allowing us to meet producers and better understand their expertise. He was extremely attentive, thoughtful, and well-organized throughout the day. He even went the extra mile by helping us source and order seeds, and assisting us in purchasing professional tools directly from local producers. This level of personalized service made a real difference for us. If you are looking for a meaningful, authentic, and well-curated experience, Saroj is the perfect guide. Highly recommended.

Dear Hinanui, Maururu so much for such an incredible and thoughtful review! It was a true privilege to host you and to dive deep into the world of Thai coconut production together. I am thrilled that you enjoyed seeing the authentic process of coconut sugar making and connecting with our local producers. For me, sharing the 'true' Thailand and the expertise of our farmers is the most rewarding part of my job. I am also very happy that I could assist you with sourcing the seeds and professional tools for your projects back in French Polynesia. Helping my guests achieve their specific goals is always my top priority, and I’m glad those 'extra miles' made a difference for you. I wish you great success with your coconut endeavors! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need further assistance from Thailand. You are always welcome back! Warmest regards, Saroj Y.

“Awesome Experience with Saroj”
The trip was in two days. The first day visit to Ayutthaya. The second day was to see the highlights of Bangkok. Saroj was the driver & guide. He is the quintessence of what an awesome tour guide should be. Very kind, accommodating, professional, reliable & punctual. There was so much we accomplished thanks to him. I’m very grateful for this edifying experience. I will highly recommend Saroj to anyone visiting Bangkok & Ayutthaya. For English speakers, his command of the language is admirable & he speaks clearly.
