I had done quite a bit of research to find Natt since one of the primary objectives on this trip was to take our 2 granddaughters to see the Elephants. I located Your Thai Guide and started a dialogue with Natt and we set up a perfect itinerary and with this included a day with the elephants.
Natt delivered and arranged a 4hour private time with 2 beautiful elephants. The girls spent 4 hours going in the river with the elephants. They had a most fantastic time playing in the river with them and i had a great time photographing them.
Natt was great we were with her 2+days and got to see all that we wanted and included some shopping as well. As far as her professionalism she was perfect always Pleasant, punctual, engaging and just the right amount of information.
Natt is a great find I absolutely recommend her and would absolutely use her on any future trips to Bangkok!! Barry G
Planning Process Makes Tours Feel Perfect for Customer
By Natt Opasanon, Founder & Owner of Your Thai Guide
Since 2011, I believe tours that match what you really want are those we build together. Not just standard schedule, but hearing your wishes, letting you shape parts of the day, and combining that with local knowledge. That is what gives unforgettable stories.
How We Include You in Itinerary
First, we talk about what excite you: elephants, nature, temple, food, markets? Then we design the day around that.
We plan every detail: transport timing, rest stops, best hours to visit place, backup for bad weather or traffic.
During tour, if you find something interesting, we can change plan a little, stay longer, skip or replace. Flexibility inside structure is key.
Why This Approach Matters
When you help shape your journey, you never feel you wasted time. You explore places no guide book may show. Professionalism shows not only in what we show you, but how. Being on time, being friendly, giving right info, not too much, not too little.
And when guest leave saying “perfect itinerary,” “pleasant guide,” “great photography moments,” that becomes our best advertisement. Word of mouth from happy travelers always the strongest.
Your Thai Guide’s collaborative planning process transforms customer ideas into perfectly executed experiences that reflect their unique interests and create lasting memories.
AJ was great and very flexible throughout our tour! Moreover, the services were arranged easily with the coordinator from the central office. The booking process was smooth and hassle-free from start to finish.
Highly Recommended Private Guide Services
We highly recommend the private guide services. Therefore, if you’re looking for personalized tours with flexible guides like AJ, this company delivers exactly what you need. The combination of great guides and efficient coordination makes for an outstanding experience.
We had organised a rush tour of only 6 hrs and had quite an extensive list of sites to visit.
Jean was early and we confirmed our day ahead plan. We utilized all forms of transport which was great,and found that we were never rushed given our time frame.
It was a great informative day taking in all of our requirements,and felt very comfortable with Jean and his knowledge.
We would highly recommend this way to see Bangkok if you do not want the hassle of finding your own way around.
I was a solo traveler in Bangkok for 2 days and needed to make the most of my limited time. Therefore, I decided to hire a local guide to make things easier and more efficient. This decision turned out to be one of the best choices I made for my trip.
You can contact YourThaiGuide as they are very professional and responsive to inquiries. Everything went smoothly with their booking process and communication. Moreover, their reliability gave me peace of mind as a solo traveler in an unfamiliar city.
An Informative and Entertaining Guide
My guide was Pete, who proved to be both very informative and genuinely funny. He is also a very good teacher who explains complex topics clearly. Because of Pete’s engaging style, learning about Bangkok felt natural and enjoyable.
Deep Cultural Understanding
Having Pete as my guide helped me understand much more about Thailand’s culture, religion, and history. His insights provided context that transformed simple sightseeing into meaningful cultural education. Furthermore, his explanations helped me appreciate what I was experiencing.
Don’t Miss the Canal Tour Experience
You shouldn’t miss the canal tour if you want to see how locals truly live. This authentic experience shows a different side of Bangkok that most tourists never discover. Thank you, Pete, for your excellent company during my solo adventure!
My friends and I had a short time in Bangkok. However, we decided last minute to visit Ayutthaya during our stay. Therefore, we found YourThaiGuide online and contacted them immediately.
Moreover, they were able to set us up with Swai very quickly and efficiently. This saved us valuable time during our brief visit.
Perfect Itinerary in No Time
Before the tour, we were asked what we wanted to see and do. Furthermore, in a very short amount of time, Swai pulled together an itinerary for our day in Ayutthaya. Additionally, it was absolutely perfect for our group’s interests.
Expert Knowledge of Thai Culture and History
Swai was very knowledgeable about the temples and ruins we were seeing. Moreover, he gave us very detailed insight into Thai culture throughout the day. Because of his expertise, we learned much more than we expected.
Highlights Beyond the Famous Ruins
Besides the amazing ruins, another highlight was our walk through the local market with Swai. This gave us authentic local experiences away from tourist crowds. Therefore, we saw real Thai daily life up close.
A New Appreciation for Thailand
My friends and I were very happy with our day in Ayutthaya. Furthermore, we ended the tour with a whole new appreciation of Thailand and its people. The experience changed how we viewed the country completely.
Our family of 4 just returned from a fantastic trip to Bangkok. Our guide Dew did a terrific job managing our ambitious schedule for tours of Bangkok and Ayutthaya.
Therefore, we were able to see both the bustling capital and Thailand’s ancient former capital. This combination gave us a complete picture of Thai history and culture.
Educational and Entertaining for Teenagers
Dew shared his wealth of knowledge about Thailand’s history throughout the trip. This made the experience both educational and entertaining for our 2 teenage kids.
Because Dew knew how to engage young people, our teens stayed interested throughout the tours. Moreover, they learned about Thai culture in a fun and memorable way.
Efficient Navigation Around Bangkok
Dew also used his intimate knowledge of the local streets and markets to our great advantage. We were able to get around the city very quickly and efficiently, which made the most of our limited time.
His local expertise helped us avoid traffic jams and crowded tourist areas. Furthermore, we discovered shortcuts that only locals know about.
Experiencing Authentic Thai Life
Additionally, Dew showed us local shops and facets of daily Thai life we’d never be able to experience on our own. These authentic moments became some of our favorite memories from the trip.
We saw how real Thai families live and work. Therefore, our understanding of Bangkok culture went far beyond typical tourist attractions.
Comfort and Safety for the Whole Family
Dew also took great care to make sure we were comfortable on our drive to Ayutthaya. He ensured all the places we ate at were both safe and enjoyable, which is always a concern for foreign stomachs and picky teen eaters.
His attention to our family’s needs made the entire experience stress-free. Moreover, we never worried about food safety or comfort during our adventures.
We had only one full day in Bangkok before moving on to our next destination. Therefore, we needed to make every moment count during our brief stay. We decided to book a full day tour with Pete from Your Thai Guide.
An Outstanding Guide Experience
Pete was absolutely awesome from start to finish! He met us at our hotel right on time and maintained his punctuality throughout the day. Additionally, he gave us a day of experiences we will not soon forget.
Knowledge and Humor Combined
Pete is incredibly knowledgeable about Bangkok’s history and culture. Moreover, he’s genuinely funny and kept us entertained throughout our adventure. He filled us with fascinating information while keeping us smiling at the same time.
Well-Respected Local Connections
From the people we met along the way, it became obvious that Pete was well respected by many locals. This respect opened doors and created special moments during our tour. Because of his connections, we experienced authentic Bangkok culture.
The Perfect Start to Our Thailand Vacation
I am so thankful we had Pete as our guide for the day. His expertise made it the perfect way to start our vacation around Thailand. Furthermore, I know we would not have appreciated the city as much without Pete at our side.
I contacted Your Thai Guide only 2 days before as we were by the beach in Koh Lanta and decided we would like to visit the Kanchanaburi area when we got to Bangkok.
The response was very quick and we booked a tour to visit the Bridge over the River Kwai, have a trip on the train and visit the Death museum. Pick up was arranged for 8.30 am and our guide was Jean who was very knowledgeable and easy to understand.
The trip was well organised and very enjoyable, the train journey was especially interesting travelling through the countryside over a lot of the original railway. It was good to be able to specify exactly what we wanted to do and not to have to visit places we were not particularly interested in.
We also had a very good driver and a comfortable air conditioned van, the trip was very good value for money. Thank you for a great day.
I had my own guide and was able to identify all the things of interest that I wanted to see. Therefore, I formulated my list and sent it to the company so my guide could map it out to save time.
This planning process made the tour feel completely tailored to my interests. Moreover, it ensured we would make the most of our limited time together.
Meeting My Outstanding Guide Dew
Dew, my extraordinary guide, was prompt and had a good command of the English language. He had done some preliminary work on my three-day tour before we even met.
Because of his preparation, we hit the ground running from day one. Furthermore, his excellent English skills meant we could have deep conversations about Bangkok’s culture and history.
Accomplishing an Extensive Itinerary
My list was extensive, and we were able to accomplish most of it during our three days. We took the Sky Train, and I was excited about this local transport experience.
Dew knew how to navigate the local area and the Sky Train system perfectly. Therefore, I felt really comfortable and safe traveling with a YTG professional guide.
Making the Most of Limited Time
We were fortunate because we were able to see so much in such a short amount of time. Dew’s local knowledge helped us avoid crowds and long waits at popular attractions.
His efficient planning meant we never felt rushed, yet we covered more ground than I thought possible. Moreover, each stop felt meaningful rather than just a quick photo opportunity.
Why I Recommend Dew and YTG
If you want to really see Bangkok and have a very unique experience, please ask for Dew when you use the excellent services of YTG. His professionalism and local expertise made my trip unforgettable.
The combination of personalized service and authentic experiences creates the perfect Bangkok adventure. Therefore, this tour style is ideal for travelers who want more than typical tourist activities.
We organised a 1 day tour for our short stay in Bangkok and had Jean for our tour guide.
What a fabulously knowledgeable young man he was, we learnt so much about the history behind Buddha, the King and so much more. We were collected from our accommodation bang on time and were driven around in a beautifully airconditioned minivan. Water was provided for us and a much appreciated wet cloth after one of the stops. We ate authentic Thai for lunch and ordered what Jean recomended, wow! What a taste sensation.
Our day was a solid 8 hours, and we visited 4 stops all of our choosing. Make sure you have good sturdy shoes, an umbrella for shading or a big floopy hat. There was alot of walking but it is so worth it and you are not rushed at all, it’s all set at your own pace.
We had AJ as our guide during 4 days, doing a lot of different activities. We visited Bangkok main temples, took a boat through canals, explored Ayutthaya, and saw the floating market. Moreover, we went to the tiger zoo, elephants world, and the bridge on river kwai.
Reliable and Knowledgeable Guide Service
AJ was always on time to pick us up at hotels. She provided us with all the necessary information at every attraction and answered all our questions. Furthermore, we made some changes to our itinerary during these days. She adjusted to all our requests with no problem at all.
Authentic Local Dining Experiences
She took us to some really good local places to eat. Nothing fancy, but they had excellent taste and were inexpensive. Therefore, we got to experience authentic Thai food that tourists usually miss. We really enjoyed our time with her throughout the entire trip.
Excellent Booking and Customer Support
Also, Primm helped us with our booking and organizing our itinerary. She was really nice and helpful with our questions. Moreover, she replied to all our emails quickly, making the planning process smooth and stress-free.
We had a few days in Bangkok while on a recent cruise. We arranged for a private tour with YTG, and they were most helpful in suggesting sites to see during our limited time.
Therefore, we felt confident that our shore excursion would make the most of our brief Bangkok visit. Moreover, their suggestions perfectly matched our interests and time constraints.
Our Excellent Tour Guide Dew
Our tour guide, Dew, was excellent throughout our entire Bangkok adventure. We took several forms of transportation and saw a lot of the city in our time together.
Because Dew knew the best ways to get around, we covered much more ground than we expected. Furthermore, using different transport methods gave us a complete Bangkok experience.
Passionate and Informative Guidance
Dew was very passionate about the great sites, temples, and palace, providing us with much information at each location. Her enthusiasm for Bangkok’s history and culture was infectious.
Her detailed explanations helped us understand the significance of what we were seeing. Moreover, Dew’s passion made every stop feel meaningful rather than just another photo opportunity.
Fascinating Chinatown Exploration
The tour through Chinatown was fascinating and unlike anything we expected. Dew took us through some narrow alleys and busy streets that cruise passengers rarely see.
She really did a great job helping us understand how people live in this vibrant neighborhood. Therefore, we gained authentic insight into daily Bangkok life beyond typical tourist attractions.
Why We Recommend YTG and Dew
We very much enjoyed our tour and heartily recommend YTG and, of course, Dew for cruise passengers visiting Bangkok. The combination of professional service and local expertise created the perfect shore excursion.
For fellow cruise travelers with limited time, this private tour approach maximizes your Bangkok experience while ensuring you return to your ship on schedule.
With her outstanding tour guide skills, Natt succeeded in resurrecting the enthusiasm of four exhausted tourists on the last day of a three week trip. Natt is enthusiastic, knowledgeable and fun.
She clearly loves what she is doing. Her knowledge of Thai history was impressive as we toured through the National Museum. We appreciated her flexibility as our schedule was up in the air until the last minute. She worked with us to make the most of our day, including a great floating market populated by locals.
By Natt Opasanon, Founder & Owner of Your Thai Guide
Why They Matter
Tour guide not only share information, real knowledge makes stories come alive! After 14 years, I see guests who know history well can enjoy more. They don’t just take photo, they feel understand culture.
Planning also matter. We prepare temple hours, best routes, rest in hot day, and adapt plan if guests want change. This calm structure lets guest relax and enjoy day even when schedule start late.
How We Do Tour Differently
We combine deep Thai knowledge with tight coordination. Guide explain history and cultural meaning in way guests understand. During tour we adjust if guests more interested in some spot, longer or skip if not. This keeps balance between being organized and flexible.
What Guests Leave With
Guests not only visit attractions, they learn. They travel better after with more respect for Thai custom, more confidence to move around in city, and stories they can talk with friends.
Memory not just what they saw, but how they felt. Peaceful morning temple, friendly guide who explain everything.
Your Thai Guide’s combination of deep expertise and flawless execution creates transformative cultural experiences that educate, inspire, and empower customers long after their Bangkok visit ends.
I booked this tour service specifically for my 75-year-old mother’s Bangkok visit. The experience exceeded all our expectations from start to finish. Moreover, the company proved they understand how to cater to senior travelers’ unique needs.
Pete: An Outstanding Guide for Older Adults
Her guide Pete was absolutely excellent in every way. His historical knowledge was truly fabulous and perfectly suited for someone with a lifetime of learning. Additionally, his sense of humor and companionship made my mother’s day visiting Bangkok simply the best day ever.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Pete as a superior guide for senior travelers. His patient approach and engaging personality create the perfect combination for older adults exploring Bangkok.
Swai: Discovering Hidden Bangkok Gems
I also had Swai as a guide on another day, which provided an excellent tour experience. It was wonderful to see back streets and experience different aspects of Bangkok culture. Furthermore, he balanced unusual discoveries with the traditional tourist spots beautifully.
We were highly delighted with AJ on our visit to Bangkok. She has a lovely personality and speaks extremely good English. Therefore, communication was easy and enjoyable throughout our entire tour.
Unforgettable Water Tour Experience
We decided to see the city from the water involving a ride in a long tail boat. First, we traveled on the river, then into the canals. We loved this part of our tour, seeing the houses and way of life of the canal side dwellers. Moreover, we ended up in a canal side market that showed us authentic local life.
Memorable Skytrain Adventure
AJ also took us on the Skytrain – another unforgettable experience. She made our visit very memorable by showing us different ways to explore Bangkok. As a result, we experienced the city from multiple perspectives that we never would have discovered on our own.
Jean was a super guide: relaxed, thorough, well-informed, gracious, and fun. His English was excellent and we didn’t have to “work” to understand him. Without being preachy or books, he was an excellent teacher. He gave us the perfect amount of information at each site that we visited and filled us in with further facts if we asked more questions.
We had a long day and he paced it well so that we saw everything we had wanted to see (at the time). We need lots more time to explore Bangkok.
I don’t think we truly appreciated Jean at the time but we have now had 3 more guides (in Vietnam) and they either couldn’t speak English or didn’t know their local history. If we return to Bangkok we will call Jean again.
Our tour guide, Jean, did an excellent job on effectively organizing the day. He is very friendly, patient, calm, and knowledgeable. He provided us lots of cultural and historical texts on the attractions we visited which certainly makes the visits more memorable.
The restaurant he took us for a local lunch was great.
His recommendation of traditional Thai message place is perfect with reasonable prices and wonderful services. He is very customer-oriented. He responded to what we need and did not try to sell any thing more or take us to visit any place more.
He was not pushy at all. We highly recommend Jean!
We used Your Thai Guide’s services for 4 days in Feb 2015.
We had the privilege of having the company owner Natt as our guide.
Natt speaks very good English and is a very pleasant and personable person.
She has a good overall knowledge of the attractions and sites that we seen and if she didn’t know something she is always willing to make something up for you if want.
She can be quite funny.
A good guide and I can recommend her service.
They were on time for all appointments. The vehicle used was an excellent quality van. The driver was very safe and cautious. At no time did we feel uncomfortable.
They also provided water and cool towels through out the tour. An excellent little bonus!
If you want the private tour experience, you can feel comfortable booking their service, right from the inquiry stage through to the end of the tour. A professional company that delivers!
Although it was all the way back in November, I would just like to say again how much myself and my cousin Ann Marie enjoyed our one day in Bangkok with Dew.
Therefore, even months later, our Bangkok experience remains a highlight of our travels. Moreover, the impact of that single day continues to bring us joy when we remember it.
Seeing More Than We Ever Expected
Dew was just absolutely amazing, and we saw far more of Bangkok than we ever expected in just one day. Her efficient planning and local knowledge made the impossible seem effortless.
Because Dew understood how to maximize our limited time, we covered incredible ground. Furthermore, every moment felt purposeful and well-planned without feeling rushed.
Educational and Enjoyable Experience
The day was not only enjoyable but also very informative and educational due to Dew’s knowledge and expertise. She transformed sightseeing into meaningful cultural learning.
Her ability to share complex history and culture in engaging ways made learning fun. Moreover, we gained deep insights into Bangkok that we treasure months later.
Our Only Regret and Future Plans
Our only regret is that we didn’t have longer to stay in Bangkok. However, hopefully we will have the opportunity to return one day and explore your wonderful city further.
Because our one-day experience was so exceptional, Bangkok now tops our list for future travel destinations. Therefore, Dew’s excellent guidance created lasting interest in Thai culture and history.
Why This Experience Stands Out
The fact that we’re still talking about this tour months later speaks to its quality. Dew’s expertise and personality created memories that continue to bring us happiness.
For travelers with just one day in Bangkok, this type of guided experience proves that quality time with a knowledgeable guide beats multiple days of wandering alone.
It was the second time we visit Bangkok. We had already been in the wonderful area of royal palace and temples. We contacted Miss Natt in order to look a different Bangkok. Miss Natt is a really pleasant and lovely person; she is the right guide to visit Bangkok and to answer to all the tourist requests.
She is witty and fun and very skillful guide. We spend a perfect day with her visiting an unusual floating market particular temples and old Bangkok neighborhoods, eating in wonderful old style Thai restaurant. It’s funny to see her negotiating with tuk tuk and taxi driver!
