I had a wonderful experience with Guide Joke as my guide over three memorable days in Thailand. After discussing what I hoped to see and do, we crafted a tailored itinerary that went beyond the usual tourist checklist. Joke’s deep respect for Thai culture, combined with his strong knowledge base, made the whole trip feel rich and insightful.

While I usually explore solo with a guidebook, this time was different. Joke didn’t just explain landmarks—he gave context you won’t find in any book. For instance, he shared details about local politics, economics, and everyday Thai life that added so much depth to our visits.

As a physician, I was especially interested in healthcare, and he made it possible to visit two hospital complexes. We even had conversations with local medical professionals, which gave me a real-world look into medical care in Thailand.

Since I also wanted to see daily life away from the tourist areas, he took me through backstreets, small local markets, and helped me try a range of street foods. He even organized a long day trip outside Bangkok that included a forest hike at Erawan Falls and a chance to spot wildlife.

Those three days weren’t just informative—they were genuinely enjoyable. I came away with a far richer experience than I could’ve had with a guidebook alone. What began as a guided tour ended in friendship, and I wholeheartedly recommend Joke to anyone wanting a deeper, more meaningful experience of Thailand.
