Booking Our Bangkok Tour
We booked a one day tour with YourThaiGuide. The company assigned Nina as our local guide. She reached out to us at our hotel the night before our tour. On the day itself, she waited for us right on time.
Nina speaks perfect English and has a very friendly nature. Therefore, we felt comfortable with her immediately. She worked with us to plan our day based on what we wanted to see. Throughout the tour, she showed great flexibility and street smarts. As a result, she could change our route when needed to make sure we got the best experience.
Trying Different Ways to Get Around Bangkok
We tried every type of transport while Nina guided us! Each method gave us a different experience. For example, riding the bus with locals was authentic and fun. Additionally, we braved Bangkok traffic in a tuk tuk, which was exciting. We also took a relaxing ride on the river boat.
Nina made sure we got the real local experience. At the same time, she helped us find great spots for photos. Because of her knowledge, we saw Bangkok from many different angles.
Going Above and Beyond Her Duties
Nina helped us book a local ride service for our return trip. This was after our dinner cruise, and she got us a very good price. Moreover, she showed us exactly where to meet our driver.
However, we ran late getting off the boat. Even though Nina’s work day was already finished, she called and texted us. She wanted to make sure our driver would wait for us. Because it was the Loy Krathong festival, everyone was busy. Therefore, some drivers were charging five times the normal rate.
Nina made sure we didn’t get ripped off by dishonest drivers. We truly appreciated her help with this problem.
Our Final Recommendation
We highly recommend Nina and YourThaiGuide! Nina’s friendly approach, local knowledge, and willingness to help made our Bangkok day tour perfect. Furthermore, her extra care showed she truly wanted us to have a great experience.
