I absolutely loved this tour! It was a brilliant way to see Bangkok. I was able to make a list of everything I wanted to see and do, and my guide determined the best way to make it all happen.
My guide for the day was Nina. She met me at my hotel and she was so friendly and easy to get along with, I instantly loved her. It was like having a friend show me around their city, and I definitely couldn’t have seen everything I wanted to as easily if she hadn’t been with me.
Having her there to navigate the public transportation, purchase tickets, speak Thai to the locals, use secret entrances, give me the history of all the temples and sites, explain the local customs, encourage me to try foods in the local market, and just generally be my friend-for-the-day was so cool. She even suggested some additional things to see that she figured out I would like, such as the flower market, and the river-front restaurant she chose for our lunch was the perfect blend of casual atmosphere and tasty food. By the end of the day, we were having a drink in Starbucks like old friends and I was sad to hug her goodbye when she dropped me off back at my hotel.
Nina was 100 the reason I enjoyed my day in Bangkok so much, and I very much appreciated her accommodating my off-hours tour it was from 11am until 7pm, as those were the hours I was available, even though she had another tour early the next morning.
