We provide you with a chance to see many local spots that most tourists never glimpse, no matter how often they visit the area. A fresh and different cultural experience, this is sure to be an unforgettable tour of Bangkok.

Wonderful day/tour with Khing! We visited Wat Paknam Phasi Charoen, Orchid farm, Khlong Lat Mayom Floating Market, Khlong Bang Luang Floating Market (+Artist's house). Khing was lovely, gave us lot's (Read More)of info, showed us different things to eat (we had to decline lunch, because we were full after the 1st market already :)). We were also quite lucky with the weather, because it was a colder day/not much sun. Sun exposure would have been a challenge on the boat... oh and during boat travel we saw quite a few big lizards, even one eating a big snake! Many many thanks (especially from my mum :)) for that experience! (Small note: there was a mixup in the morning, which was figured out within 30min and Khing was ready and jumped in as our tour guide...still not really sure how that all happened and was resolved, but it worked out perfectly for us).

We were met by Nui right on time at our meeting point. Nui is a great guide that shared practical information about the Thai culture. We really enjoyed visiting the temples, the market and artist vill (Read More)age. It was really a backwaters adventure, off the beaten track. We got to mix with the locals and were even invited to eat with the family celebrating the passage of their son to become a monk. Very unique!

We had a super nice day that couldn't have been better with a nice guide who couldn't have been more professional. She explained everything to us well, took her time for all interests and spared no ex (Read More)pense or effort to make us a nice day. There were hardly any tourists at the places visited, the timing was just great and there was so much on offer - a lot better than expected.

Very nice tour. We were traveling as a family and we had the boat and guide to ourselves. Sufficient time was taken at each stop and everything was explained to us. We also had the feeling that every (Read More)wish was read from our eyes. Highly recommended to get to know Bangkok from a different perspective.

This tour was the best tour my husband and I have ever taken (and we travel a lot)! We were lucky to have our guide Nui all to ourselves and she is very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. T (Read More)he tour takes you out of the most touristy parts of Bangkok where you can see how most people here live. Nui bought us delicious foods to try, and as a bonus, took really amazing pictures of us. This tour is a MUST DO for a 2+ day stay in Bangkok. Thank you Nui!
