If you wish you had a close friend in Bangkok to give you an insider's tour of the city, you've come to the right place. My name is CHAWANWIT or KAY as a nickname known for travelers, I born and raised in Bangkok work as an inbound/outbound tour escort around 30 years, I love my job and always enjoy meeting and conducting travelers on the tour, I have spent part of each year searching for new places which is not just the ordinary tours. I offer handcrafted private tours of Bangkok for travelers who demand more than an impersonal bus tour. I specialize in small, intelligent private tours of Bangkok for educated travelers who want real insights into the people, the history, and the culture of the city. I have designed tours of Bangkok that take in a good selection of off-the-beaten-track sights and a few must-see attractions. I also selected good, authentic local restaurants to stop for lunch. I speak fluent English, Thai, and I am a storehouse of interesting information about Bangkok and Thai culture. More than just a guide, I will serve you as a personal assistant during your time in Bangkok, making sure that your trip there is stress-free and special in every way. Best of all, your tour will be a private experience, and you can walk as much or as little as you like. I can also provide a private car with a driver for your tour, giving you the option of driving from site to site, so please join me for an inside look at this wonderful city. Besides tours in Bangkok, I also offer full-day tours outside of Bangkok, such as the old capital Ayutthaya, the Floating Market, the Bridge on the River Kwai, or a customized tour to meet your needs. Please feel free to send me a message and I will get back to you soonest possible. Thank you. Professional Guide Association Tourist Guide Licence No: 1-018298

K is highly recommended. Thailand tends to have a lot of mass tourism guides. Very generic. This is not that. K has a fantastic knowledge of art, art history, the complex history of Bangkok and the surrounding country. My tour was 8 hours pleasure. If you like art, art history and history in general, I recommend K. He is very knowledgable and a great person too. Please take this tour.

We booked K. For two days. He crafted a schedule and places that matched our interests. He kept an eye on us and made sure we were comfortable and safe. He is personable and just a pleasure to tour with. His expertise made or explorations of Bangkok an amazing experience.

We had a wonderful experience. Kay was a perfect guide: knowledgeable, super nice and patient. I would recommend getting the private car if that is an option. I highly recommend if you have just a day to hit the highlights of Bangkok.

It was awesome. We made a whirlwind day of all the top attractions in Bangkok. We only had a day to do it and we made the most of it. Our guide was top notch. Punctual. Friendly. Knowledgeable. Spoke English very well. I highly recommend him.

Your Bangkok tour itinerary

Starting time: 9 am Meet at the hotel and be escorted to the places of interest by public transport. Visit the Golden Buddha Temple, home of the Buddha made of gold, which weighs 5 1/2 tons. The Reclining Buddha Temple is home to the Gigantic Buddha in his nirvana position. The huge pagodas were built by the kings to be dedicated to the temple. The Buddha Galleries displayed 394 images, including many more, which can be viewed within the compound. Lunch at a local restaurant, and afterward, we will visit the Emerald Buddha Temple, built on the grounds of the Royal Palace. The temple is the center of Thai spirituality and the home of the most sacred Buddha in Thailand. A pleasurable ride on a long-tailed boat on the canals is a relaxing moment after the Grand Palace. The Flower Market is the most popular wholesale market for both flowers and vegetables. Chinatown is a commercial hub in the city, a hustling and bustling center that offers off-the-beaten-path places and markets, which worth visiting.
