Latest reviews from our guests

    I’m not even sure where to even begin!! We visited Bangkok for 2 days as a stop on our Royal Caribbean cruise. From our first contacts with Zarut prior to our arrival, he was nothing short of AMAZING!! He was prompt in communication responses and fully engaged in making our visit memorable before, during, and after our time in Bangkok. Zarut got to know us and our interests and made sure to tailor our time in Bangkok specifically to our liking. He magically weaved our interest in historical sites with our love of food and local culture. We were able to experience Bangkok through our eyes and our palates!! Zarut’s EXPERT guiding led us to local restaurants, Chinatown, the Floating Markets, the Weekend Market, many temples (Wat Arun, Wat Phra,) the Grand Palace, and the Reclining Buddha, just to name a few…and we ate along the way!! Zarut went above and beyond when he found out that we were celebrating our 35th anniversary and took it upon himself to notify the hotel who then decorated our room! By the end of our two days we not only felt that we had experienced much of Bangkok, we felt that we have gained a new friend! We can not wait to return to Bangkok and see more of this wonderful city…but also to see Zarut again!! He absolutely made our time in Bangkok more meaningful, memorable, and magical than we could have possibly ever imagined! Do yourself a favor and request Zarut to be your guide!! We have traveled the world and visited many different countries and cities and had many different guides. Zarut is the ABSOLUTE BEST Guide we have ever met!! Bangkok is lucky to have Zarut as an asset to their city. We consider ourselves blessed having met Zarut!!

    Zarut was amazing! He tailored our two days in Bangkok to the things we wanted to see and do. As “foodies”, he went out of his way to ensure we had a “taste” of everything. We had local restaurant food, street food, floating market food….all wonderful. Zarut led us all over the city….walking, metro/train, taxi, and even boat. In addition, since we arrived via cruise ship, Zarut arranged for a private transfer from the port to the city….and back to the ship after our two days together. This tour was fantastic in every way!!

    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.
