Excellent tour. We chose to make changes to our itinerary so we could see the tigers, and they were so helpful. The tiger park is a MUST!

Hello, my name is Ruetai but you can call me Pai . I am a new local generation with travel experienced more than 10 years. I love to travel and have a service mind in the travel business. Being a tour guide in Phuket Island is my career; I would like to offer my services to all visitors and tourists and welcome them to Phuket Island. You should know that Phuket doesn't have only beaches and islands. It still has a lot of other interesting places to visit that reveal our culture and also many local foods. I love Phuket because it always makes me happy to live here, and there is always something going on. And I love travelling and trying to find and discover new interesting places and activities on Phuket Island. While some tourists are not too impressed with Phuket, this is most likely because their tours did not focus on the local people, culture, food, and sightseeing. The island is beautiful, and the people are friendly. You just need the right guide. All of my tours are fun, and you'll learn about our culture, food, history, and what life is like on this beautiful island. Every place on the island and all of our local foods have their own story. You'll learn about these stories during our tour. I would be happy to personalize this tour to exactly what you want to see and do, just let me know your special request. Please pick me as your personal tour guide and I will help you enjoy our culture and food. - Guide licence at Department of Tourism : Licence No. 5-000322 - Member of Phuket Professional Guide Association : Member ID 1-0054 - Member of Andaman Guide Association - Guide experience 15 years I am not a driver but I can arrange for a car or van and driver for your private group.

Once again, our guide, Pei, was amazing! This was our second time using her. We were a group of 3 women in our 70’s. She responded well to our requests and needs. Had a full day in Phuket, including a wonderful beachfront restaurant for a great lunch. I highly recommend this guide! She also speaks English beautifully, was accommodating and very knowledgeable about the area.

We had a wonderful tour with Pai! She was waiting for us at the airport, so we didn’t have to plan anything! She was very knowledgeable about all of the sites we visited, and she was able to give us a lot of information on Phuket in general and surrounding sites (James Bond & Phi Phi islands). She tailored our tour to our interests and was very accommodating. It was the perfect way to start our wonderful stay in Phuket. I would highly recommend Pai (Ruetai)
