Hi, my name is Jay and I would love to be your private local guide in Bangkok. If you arrive in Bangkok, what are you looking for? What do you need? What do you expect? And with which memories of this amazing country do you want to go home. . . I believe your experience will always be more meaningful when it is shared and learned from the locals. So what you need is a local who knows what you want. My experience as a guide for more then a decade has taught me well. So I'm sure I am able to make your dream trip come true. When you book one of my tours I will share my love for my country's by engaging you through some historical insights, local folktales, delicious Thai food, fun local transportation like a tuk tuk ride or James Bond boat amazing race, myths and different beliefs that can be found throughout Thailand. My work is my passion. So to me "guiding a tour" is not just a job. It is also my happiness. Everyday when I say goodbye to my new friends, I can only feel fulfilled and complete when I am sure my guests had an amazing and excellent day. With me as your friend, not only will you hear stories but you will also feel and taste the best of Thailand. Through the local insights but also through tasting some of the most delicious Thai food around. I have some different trips and tours for you to choose from. Some are very flexible and can be customized along the day and others are all inclusive trips around Bangkok and for example the floating market or Ayutthaya. For cruise ship travelers I have private tours for couples and for travelers that want to book me as a group for their trip to Bangkok or near the port. But if by any chance you can't find what you are looking for or you want to customize any of my tours, please don't hesitate to send me an email because this can all be arranged according to your specific wishes. So embark on your first experience to Thailand with me and make sure your holiday will start with a blast! I can't wait to welcome you to Bangkok soon!

Overview of your Bangkok tour

On this trip I will take you all over town by public transportation like skytrain and express boat. Imagine yourself wandering amongst Thai people on their way to bring their offerings to the Emerald Buddha at the royal palace. The smell of thousands of lotus flowers in front of the temple will take you to heaven and when you close your eyes you'll be in peace with your surroundings. All in a second time. All of a sudden a Thai lady with a fashionable sarong offers you a fresh garland of flowers and before you know it you are sitting on the temple floor offering the garland to the Buddha. Everything you wish to see in Bangkok is possible. There is so much to see and experience while in Bangkok and I'll let you know my personal highlight by email when you contact me by email. If you want to see Bangkok, Ayutthaya and the Floating market I suggest to book my 2 or 3 days Tailor Made tour. With this tour you will see it all. After this introduction to Bangkok I'll make sure you get back to your hotel safely.

An inspiring packed day in Thailand. I really appreciated the knowledge which meant we could beat the crowds, and make good times. Seeing what we saw it would have taken me weeks alone! So many random fabulous experiences provided due to Jay’s knowledge of the city of Bangkok and her connections and Thai language. Thank you 🙏🏻

Excellent day with Jay. She was fun, had great knowledge and showed us the many sights of Bangkok. She adapted the tour to include the things that were a must see on our list as well as take us to small hidden treasures to purchase some items. Had a wonderful lunch at a local place that she loves and she introduced us to several snacks and other treat. We had a great time with Jay and would highly recommend her.

Jay was a very enthusiastic, charming and knowledgeable tour guide. She helped make the most of our day in Bangkok by navigating the lines at the tourist spots, took us on all modes of transportation and introduced us to local cuisine. We would definitely recommend her!

We were so lucky to have Jay as our tour guide. She was incredibly knowledgeable about all aspects of the city and culture. She took us to places we would never have found on our own and so many amazing experiences - river boats, tuktuks, markets, cuisine, the Grand Palace and temples. Do not hesitate to arrange a tour with her. You will not regret it. Amazing!

Jay thought of everything and made the tour exciting and informative. Jay took care of us like we were family. She made sure that we were provided with everything we needed. From hand sanitizers, frozen towels, cold water to the best food. Every single detail that was planned out made this tour amazing, enjoyable and inspiring. My wife and I fell in love with Thailand thanks to her.

Do yourself a favor and book a tour with Jay. I had just a few hours to see Bangkok and no time to do my own research. Jay showed me all the sights and somehow also fit in a scrumptious street-side lunch, a dance show, a tour of the flower market, a boat ride on the canals of the Chao Phraya, and, to close the night, a coconut treat in Chinatown. Thanks to Jay, I skipped long lines, learned about Thai culture and history, and took wonderful memories back home with me--and feel like I made a friend!
