See Bangkok on your layover

If you have a long layover at Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok, you have two choices: You could either sit around on an uncomfortable seat and wait for time to tick by, or you could join a Bangkok local on Bangkok airport layover tours that help you make the most of every minute. If you choose the second option, you’ll be whizzed into the heart of Bangkok for a travel experience that shows you the many sides to this incredible city. Discover the history, natural beauty, wonderful people, culture, and cuisine on Bangkok layover tours. It’s a travel opportunity you’ll never regret grabbing.

Stress-free sightseeing in Bangkok

When you have a flight in a few hours, heading into a new city can be a daunting idea. After all, when you’re not familiar with the language, city layout, and transportation, getting around isn’t exactly easy. But on Bangkok layover tours with a local insider, you can rest assured you’ll have a seamless travel experience. In fact, your local host will come pick you up at the airport to guarantee you won’t put a foot wrong on our Bangkok layover tours. Your guide will plan your itinerary and lead you every step of the way – plus, they’ll get you back to the airport with time to spare!

See Bangkok like a local

Our Bangkok airport layover tours aren’t your average travel experience. Just because you have limited time doesn’t mean you need to stick to the main sights along the tourist trail. That’s why your local host will plan a tour that shows you the must-see attractions and some of the city secrets. Of course, you won’t miss out on the most iconic sights – but you’ll also be exposed to a side of Bangkok only someone who calls the city home can reveal. We make sure that Bangkok layover tours with City Unscripted recreate the experience of seeing a city with a good friend who lives there.

My wife and I have been to Thailand in the recent past and booked a number of tours. This tour would rate as one of the best. Why ?? Because our tour guide (Muay) was excellent; very knowledgeable, friendly, personable and easily approachable. A 5 STAR RATING is appropriate. Will book any tour with Muay in the future

Tom was incredible. We had a very short window of time and he fit in soooo much. The reclining Buddha, long tail boat ride and golden palace in just a few hours. Thank you!!!!

The tour was well-organized, and our guide was both knowledgeable and enthusiastic, sharing fascinating insights about the history, culture, and hidden gems of the area. We explored vibrant markets, tasted delicious street food like dim sum. The atmosphere was lively, with colorful lanterns, bustling streets, and the aroma of fresh cooking filling the air. The guide also took us to lesser-known alleys where we discovered authentic local shops and traditional stores. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to experience the rich culture and flavors of Chinatown in Bangkok!
