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 Pattaya tour

This is the perfect day tour to Bangkok if you arrive by ship at Laem Chabang port. My driver will meet you at the port and drive to Bangkok in about 2, 5 hours. Here I will meet you and together we'll explore all your requested places like for example: 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. After a fun day together my driver will bring you back to the port in time for your ships departure. Another option if you do not like to spend your time traveling to Bangkok is that I will meet you at the port. From here we can visit many places nearby the port. I can send you some suggestions by email for this trip.

Tommy was a great guide! He made sure we will able to see all the best spots in Bangkok. He had picked out a great spot for lunch that was delicious! He took very good care of us!

We were met at the Laem Chabang port by our driver Ko who took us into Bangkok (just over 2 hours) to meet with our guide Tommy. The van could accommodate 6 passengers and was very comfortable. Cold drinks and towels were provided. Tommy was very engaging and gave interesting historical tidbits about what we were seeing. Highlights included the Grand Palace, Queen Sirikil Museum, Wat Pho, flower canal, Chinatown, a motorized canoe along the ChaoPhraya River (monitor lizards!), a dance theater performance, and Old Siam Plaza. His restaurant suggestion for authentic Thai food was excellent (meal not included in tour price). Ko was a very patient driver despite the heavy rush hour traffic and brought us back safely to the LC port.

Tommy was excellent! He was efficient in his planning, and remained flexible to accommodate any requests we had. Great personality.

We had been to Bangkok before so we asked Tommy for a somewhat unconventional tour going to sites that the locals visit rather than the major tourist spots and he delivered!!! We had a great day in Bangkok before heading to the airport hotel where we spent the night before a morning flight home.

Tommy deftly guided us through many stunning temples and places of worship. He knew every detail of each location, from the best photo spots to the local routes to avoid crowds. We dined at a fantastic restaurant where, for the first time on the trip, my kids ordered seconds! He made time to visit more of the sites we wanted to see than we would have thought possible! Tommy is a fantastic guide to make the most of your limited time in Bangkok! At the end, Tommy surprised us with a beautifully engraved wooden box of chopsticks featuring a scene of elephants.

Tommy was an outstanding guide! Very knowledgable about history, culture, religion and food. He patiently answered all of our many questions while always being engaging and entertaining. We all loved his personality and humor. He took us in the back alleys where we were the only non locals. All the food we ate(so many!) was delicious and certainly none were any we would have been able to find without his guidance. He even brought pants for the guys in case they didn't have ones long enough. Best day!
