We chose Your Thai Guide after reading so many excellent reviews, and I’m so glad we did. From start to finish, the experience was smooth, fun, and filled with memorable moments.
Our group consisted of two older couples spending three nights in Bangkok as part of a wider Thailand trip. We were looking for a friendly and knowledgeable guide to help us explore the main attractions while also giving us a glimpse of the real Bangkok. Nina was the perfect match.
She spoke excellent English, knew the city inside and out, and made us feel comfortable right away. Not only did she take us to all the must-see sights, but she also led us through less touristy areas that gave us a more local feel.
Before our tour, we provided a general idea of what we wanted to see. When Nina arrived at our hotel, she sat with us to refine the plan and offered great suggestions. We ended up using every kind of local transport—river ferry, tuk tuk, bus, and of course, walking—which made the day more immersive and fun.
Nina suggested that we each give her a small amount of cash at the start of the day to cover public transport fares, including hers. We also paid for lunch, but since everything was very affordable, the costs were minimal. For lunch, she brought us to a spot she claimed served the best curry in Bangkok. We believed her, especially after hearing it had been featured on a “Hairy Bikers” cooking show.
In the afternoon, we explored on foot, walking through local markets and Chinatown. Sometimes, we were the only tourists around, but that made it even better. Nina helped us find everything we wanted, and the locals were friendly and welcoming.
The weather stayed dry, which was lucky, but I’d recommend packing light rain gear just in case.
This tour was truly money well spent. I would absolutely recommend Your Thai Guide and especially Nina. Thank you again, Nina, for a brilliant day—and I hope you enjoyed your take-home curry!
