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 Pattaya tour

When exploring the marvelous golden chedi's and roaming the palace grounds you'll see glimpses of Buddhist monks giving blessings while the fragrant of colorful lotus flowers create a serenity in the air. Whisking through backstreets markets where sellers offer you tasteful delicacies wrapped in banana leaves. But what's inside. . . Thai people have many beliefs and traditions which wonder many travelers. You might see a lady doll inside shops waving at you. But why? And why are there so many different Buddha postures and what's their meaning? A trip through Asian stories and traditional beliefs while you'll see all the highlights of the city is what you can expect. May all your answers be questioned. . . You can also book my 1 day Bangkok and 1 day Pattaya tour. Please check out my other shore excursions for this.

The six of us had such an amazing 2 days with Jay, as she took us all around Bangkok. The sights and experiences with her helped made our first visit to Thailand so memorable. Stopped at a great place for lunch the first day, and even though it was hot, Jay was prepared with cold towels for us, along with water which made all the difference. Jay is very knowledgeable so you gather the history of what you're seeing, and so flexible that you can customize the tour to suit your needs. Would highly recommend!

Jay and Bui were incredible! We booked Bangkok for day 1 and Pattaya for the 2nd day with this add-on to allow them to stay in Pattaya. We saw SO MUCH MORE because of their excellent planning and coordination. In Bangkok, we went to Wat Pho Reclining Buddha, the Grand Palace with Emerald Buddha, a wonderful lunch at Sorndang 1-star Michelin restaurant, the flower market, a stop for sticky rice with mango from K. Panich, Wat Trimit Golden Buddha, and the Jim Thomson museum. Then back to the ship by 5! The next day, we stayed closer to the ship and saw the Pattaya seafood market, the Sanctury of Truth, we had a local massage, went to the Pattaya viewpoint, ate another wonderful meal at a local restaurant called Maisriruen, stopped by the Pattaya Floating Market and saw the laser Buddha mountain. At every step, Jay had Bui pull right up to the exit where we boarded and were whisked off to the next stop. At various locations, she was so kind to buy the girls flowers, small snacks and she even gave us some elephant shirts and pants! She was so kind, organized, enjoyable and good at her job! We would definitely recommend booking Jay for Bangkok, Pattaya or any of her tours!

We only had 2 days with Jay, but she was able to give us a week’s worth of touring. Everything was planned out and we feel that we saw the best of Bangkok with the best guide ever. From the beginning to the end of the tour, she exceeded all our expectations. When we thought she was done, she did more! She was upbeat, fun and engaging and extremely knowledgeable on all the sights and the history. We were extremely comfortable with her. Her recommendations for restaurants were excellent. She helped us get the best prices for merchandise at the markets and when she took us to the airport, made sure we got to where we had to be and somehow had us skipping lines. We highly recommend Jay; she is the best of the best.

If anyone is thinking of booking a tour of Bangkok then Jay is the person you are looking for, don't hesitate book her before someone else does. She showed us the Bangkok we would never have seen without her. From a Thai breakfast at a street food vendor to a relaxing foot massage in Chinatown after a long day visiting all the major sights, with a tuk tuk ride and a long boat ride, feeding the catfish which are more like pirahnas A truly once in a lifetime experience Thank you Jay Not forgetting the driver Pui whose driving skills through the streets of Bangkok were second to none.

We can't express what an amazing two days we had with Jay! We were staying in the Bangkok area for a cruise with an overnight stay at a Bangkok hotel. Jay picked us up at our port of Laem Chabang in a private, air conditioned car that was decked out with things like a full ice cooler, lots of cold towels and snacks. We spent our first day in Ayutthaya where Jay took us to various sites and temples. It was a magical day and Jay did a great job to take us to local food which was delicious! We got dropped off at our hotel. The next day we spent in Bangkok proper where we saw major temples, took a boat ride, went to local markets and ate amazing food at a Michelin star restaurant. It was truly an incredible day and we have Jay to thanks for it!
