Why We Chose Your Thai Guide
We picked Your Thai Guide after reading many great reviews. Therefore, I’m happy we made this choice. From start to finish, our experience was smooth and fun. Moreover, the day was packed with moments we’ll never forget.
Our group had two older couples. We spent three nights in Bangkok as part of a bigger Thailand trip. However, we wanted more than just sightseeing. We looked for a friendly guide who knew the city well. Additionally, we hoped to see the real Bangkok beyond tourist spots.
Meeting Nina: Our Perfect Local Guide
Nina turned out to be exactly what we needed. She spoke great English and knew Bangkok inside and out. Furthermore, she made us feel at ease right away. Not only did she show us the must-see places, but she also took us to local areas. As a result, we got a true taste of Bangkok life.
Before the tour started, we shared what we wanted to see. When Nina came to our hotel, she sat with us to plan the day. Then, she gave us excellent tips to make our trip better.
Getting Around Bangkok Like a Local
We used every type of local transport during our day. For example, we took the river ferry, rode in tuk tuks, and caught buses. Of course, we also did plenty of walking. Because of this variety, the day felt more real and exciting.
Nina had a smart idea at the start. She asked each of us to give her some cash for transport costs, including hers. We also paid for lunch. However, since prices were very low, we spent very little money.
The Best Curry in Bangkok
For lunch, Nina brought us somewhere special. She said this place served Bangkok’s best curry. We trusted her, especially after she told us about the restaurant’s fame. In fact, it had been shown on a cooking show called “Hairy Bikers.”
Exploring Markets and Chinatown on Foot
During the afternoon, we walked through local markets and Chinatown. Sometimes, we were the only tourists there. However, this made the experience even better. Nina helped us find everything we wanted. Meanwhile, local people were friendly and welcoming to us.
The weather stayed dry, which was lucky for us. Even so, I suggest bringing light rain gear just in case.
Our Final Thoughts
This tour was worth every penny we spent. Therefore, I would definitely recommend Your Thai Guide, especially Nina. Thank you again, Nina, for such a great day. Also, I hope you enjoyed the curry you took home!
