How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
You’ll spend the day with one of our local Bangkok hosts, who can’t wait to share with you their favorite places to hang out, where to get your hands on the best Thai food and show you the city through an inspiring lens.
You’ll weave your way through a pocket of the city, discovering its famously dizzying pace and some secret places like the Tonson Mosque - the oldest in Bangkok.
You’ll have time to see some historic landmarks like the Temple of Dawn (Wat Arun), explore fascinating districts like Chinatown or take the Chao Phraya Express Boat to Tha Chang to explore Bangkok’s oldest district, the island of Ko Rattanakosin.
We know that a city is more than a place, but a feeling. And so that’s exactly what you’ll experience on your day with your host, as you discover Bangkok your way.

We had an excellent tour which Kat planned around our times. We visited Wat Pho and the reclining Buddha in the early morning. Amazing and beautiful with few people around so we could enjoy it. Then we visited Wot Arun The temple of Dawn. The detail of the temple was astounding and Kat gave us time to wander while explaining the history. A memorable tour which Kat guided and made it very interesting.

Omg, Kat was incredible! The tour was wonderful, and we got to see the beautiful sights of Bangkok. Kat, our tour guide, was extremely knowledgeable and passionate throughout the tour. She was patient with my parents, who are in their 70's, and planned in addional 'pit-stops' throughout the day. She is truly an amazing lady with a passion for providing the most memorable tour. Thank you, Kat. Sending hugs, James, Mark, Serena and Graham x

Kat was very flexible and understood exactly what we wanted, even though we didn’t exactly know :-). We toured the canals and had a wonderful lunch in a garden. The whole time was great with Kat! Highly recommend.
