Life is a journey but unless you've visited Thailand. . . it's not complete. Hello and Sawadee, my name is Tommy and I've been a Thai tour guide for over a decade now. Probably I will be a guide for a decade more because my job is my passion in life! Previous to my life as a Thai guide I was a marketing manager for a life insurance company in Thailand. But I didn't stick with that and became a Thai guide and I haven't looked back since. What I love most about my job is that I get a chance to meet people from all over the world and make friends with them. Second is that I get a chance to share my love for Thai food. So as you will see in my tours page, I have a special private food tour for Thai food lovers as well. But of course next to the food I know my way around all the historical sites in Bangkok and Thailand of which I am very proud to share. I also know many hidden secret markets, shrines, backstreets and undiscovered cultural places in the city. It always excites me a lot when I discover a new hidden gem in the city or at the countryside. During my time as a freelance guide for a high-end travel company in South East Asia, I have been their event planner for special occasions. This specialized company send me out frequently with managers from overseas travel companies on inspection trips and to set out new itineraries for these travel companies. The company awarded me with an Excellent Guide Award for the year 2013. In the last few years I have been to the United States, Europe and of course many Asian countries. I hope my travels will bring me to many new destinations in the future. I am looking forward to spend one or more amazing days with you as my guests in Bangkok. If you have any specific requests or if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. May happiness surround your travels and goodluck to you all!

Overview of your Bangkok tour

If you have a few hours stopover in Bangkok and want to see the impressive city why not go with me? I will meet you at the airport and together we'll explore many of the places that you want to visit. Depending on the time you have we can adjust the tour to this. While wandering along the ancient temples and Grand Palace grounds I'll introduce the history of Thailand and what makes Thai people Thai. Visiting a local fresh market always entices travelers and you will taste many of the ingredients seen there at one of the delicious local restaurants where you will enjoy some of Thailands best food. If you're up to it you can make a fun ride in a tuk tuk or escape the heat while riding a longtail boat to enjoy the local lifestyle of Bangkok people. After a great time in the city I will make sure that you get back to the airport in time. This tour is done by private van but if you want I can organise it by local transportation as well. If you like this please send me an email and I will arrange this for you.

Our experience with Tom was absolutely fantastic! He was responsive, organized, friendly, and flexible when we encountered travel delays. He knew the area around the Grand Palace and other sites like the back of his hand so we moved seamlessly from one site to the next, then back to the car which was always waiting for us when we were done. Everything was easy, pleasant, and gorgeous. If you are hesitating, just book it!

Tommy was amazing! We did the mighty airport stopover. I highly recommend this tour if your time crunched. We had one day in Bangkok and Tommy efficiently showed us all the highlights. He took us to amazing markets we never would have found and had the van ready so we could jump in and quickly move to the next stop. Keeping us from overheating in the hot Thailand sun. There were cold drinks available the entire time. It was really nice to hear the history of the city. He was very knowledgeable and passionate about Thai culture. Thank you Tommy!!

A highly effective and organized tour by Tommy. Our group of six enjoyed his interaction, information and guiding. He lead us through the Grand Palace complex, Wat Phra Kawe Emerald Buddha, Wat Pho Reclining, WT Traimit Golden Buddha, Wat Arum Temple of the Dawn. Then a great, longish river and canal boat ride past neighborhoods and locals markets, lunch at a Michelin star restaurant and a walk through the fascinating flower market. All in all a great tour by Tommy, complete with a/c van.

We had a terrific time on our tour. We signed up with very short notice and were very pleased with how quickly Tommy was able to pull this together for us. He planned a very diverse day for us, was very tuned into our energy level as a group and modified as the day proceeded. Our small group went away from the tour impressed with Bangkok and all of its wonders as well as the knowledge and skill level of our amazing guide. Thank you so much for a wonderful day. I recommend this company and Tommy Judy

Really enjoyed our tour with Tommy. We were only in Bangkok for a few hours, but Tommy was very friendly and helpful and organised a tour for us on very short notice. He brought us around the city in a snack-filled air-conditioned van and let us choose where we wanted to go - based on his recommendations. We visited some temples and got to taste some delicious local thai food at a local market and at the flower market. We also did a canal boat ride. Would definitely recommend a tour with Tommy!

Tommy served as an amazing guide. First, he responded to all my emails within 24 hours. Once we arrived in Bangkok, Tommy met us at the hotel lobby at 1 pm. He then deftly guided us through the city including long tail boat ride, Grand Palace, Emerald Buddha, Reclining Buddha, traditional Thai dance show, tuk tuk ride, Wat Arun, ferry boat ride to cross the river, walk through some various markets, and then back to the hotel by 7 pm so we could join our larger tour group for the next week. Excellent!
