It starts with being prompt - a real plus. She was kind and courteous. We were particularly pleased with her attention to lunch, having a member of the party with a shellfish allergy. She paced the visit to our ability - slow with a “feels like” temp of 109! Highly recommend her for this tour.

Piyaporn met us at our hotel promptly and we spent our day travelling in a very comfortable air conditioned people carrier. Equipped with a big icebox full of cold water and as we got back to the car our lovely driver offered us cold towels which were very refreshing. We had discussed our day with Piyaporn prior to our visit...we have certain restrictions to our mobility and she planned a perfect day for us which covered all the highlights we wanted to see without the day being too challenging. We lunched with her in a locals restaurant and tried her recommendations which were delicious. A fantastic day and we will definitely recommend her as her local knowledge is excellent.

Polly was very knowledgeable about the sites and a lovely guide. It was tremendously hot and she was steadfast in preparing herself to do the full Ayutthaya tour for us until we let her know we were exhausted with the heat (37, felt like 46 degrees in a heat wave) and really needed to limit it; she adjusted well according to our needs. She took about 100 photos for us along the way so that we could enjoy the sites without having to take our own.

As a group of three, we wanted to have an immersive experience while we were visiting Thailand and Bangkok. We checked many websites and services that had tours and we settled upon withlocals. We were able to select our guide for the tours we wanted and we were blessed to be able to find Araya. She was so amazing. We booked her for a tour each day we were available for a total of five tours. Everything from the ancient city to grand palace to hidden gems and markets. We did everything we could. She was such a wealth of information about everything. She made our time with her fly by and it never was dull moment. Through our discussions, she was so helpful in making our experience memorable she would make suggestions that help us avoid the more “touristy” offerings for better experiences and was able to, on one occasion, help arrange a private audience with a temple monk for a teaching and blessing. We cannot say enough great and amazing words about Araya. If we ever get back to Bangkok, we will definitely be reconnecting and building new memories with her.

Piyaporn is a fantastic guide. Super friendly and knowledgable. Excellent tour and a real pleasure to chat with Piyaporn about many aspects of life in Thailand. The restaurant she took us to was very good. The driver was lovely too!

We had a wonderful trip to the ancient city of Ayutthaya with Piyaporn. We learned a lot of Thai history, saw beautiful old temples and tasted great Thai delicacies. Piyaporn’s broad knowledge of history, mixed with a lot of kindness and thoughtfulness makes this a trip we can highly recommend to everybody!

Look no further, because Polly is the guide you need for your next tour in Thailand! Besides being an absolute sweet heart - She is a wealth of knowledge, answering all of our questions in depth, taking us to the right spots at each place, and making excellent recommendations on what to eat. Polly made our trip so enjoyable, she took the time to know us, and tailored our trip to what we wanted to see. For example, she ended up planning for us to see Buddhist monks at their time of prayer at the end of our tour one day. It was such a unique spiritual experience! She is one of those people you meet in life that leave a mark!

Having done a fair bit of online research, I came across Big and, reading the raving reviews, opted for a day tour of Ayutthaya and a floating market tour with him. It’s always a bit of a gamble but this time we felt as we’d won the lottery. Big was excellent. Having grown up and worked in the US whilst also being Thai and living more latterly in Bangkok, he was able to provide valuable context to history and cultural aspects we simply wouldn’t have had otherwise, and of course having grown up there, his English was Big is a really fun guy with a great sense of humour and it felt like hanging out with a mate. Big didn’t’ only tell us about the sights and history but introduced us to local food and customs (including a local sweet delicacy) and took us for lunch at a restaurant which seemed very authentic (no other tourists, except us) which was great, yummy food too. Big strikes me as a bit of a polymath and he seems to know something about most things, including European and British history which he linked back, which was interesting. The kids (aged 13 and 16) loved the tour and were engaged throughout. I will be recommending Big to anyone going to Bangkok; couldn’t recommend him more highly.

Ayutthaya was incredible to see, and Piyaporn was very knowledgable about each ruin and the overall history of the site. On top of that, she was very kind, answered all of our questions, and had a great sense of humor. Piyaporn was also very accommodating when it came to picking me and my friends up at separate hotels in the morning, and she was super helpful when it came to translating our lunch orders. We learned so much from our day trip to Ayutthaya and could not recommend a better guide!

We spent the day with Ms. Polly, an excellent tour guide, and Mr. Pop, an impeccable driver. They picked us up at the hotel with a cool, new black car. Polly made the trip very enjoyable explaining all sort of details from Bangkok and the regions we were going through. One of the first things she said was that she would probably be able to answer 99% of the questions and then Google the 1% left: we bombarded her with questions all day and she was able to answer 100% of them! She was also very attentive from the get go: I asked a question at the beginning of the trip, she answered something related and we discussed for 15 on some other topic. Then, when there was some (natural) silence during the trip she remembered that she hadn’t answered my original question and answered it proactively, showing how much she was involved instead of just passively waiting during the trip to Ayutthaya! The trip was very well planned out, very beautiful and diverse visits of temples and nature. The driver was always waiting at the perfect spot, we never had to wait for him, we felt treated like royalty! Polly also has a good English so it was easy to follow her explanations, even with her covid mask. Polly was always proactively explaining the history of Ayutthaya and Thailand more broadly, and answering all our questions with patience and good humor. We were then brought for lunch to a place that felt a bit touristy, but not too much, with good river views and had some time on our own. Polly kindly shifted the trip 1h because I asked her to see the sunset in Ayutthaya, which we got lucky (she mentioned it can’t be seen some days because of fog) and got to enjoy! That meant we came back during the night. The driver still felt super safe and calm. I was very tired, but my partner and, particularly, Polly were not, and she kept answering all our questions and explaining more and more interesting things until the very last minute! Finally, Polly made lots and lots of great pictures, and she knew where to take particularly-beautiful ones. After the trip, she sent them all on Whatsapp. I asked her to send them to Google Photos and she kindly redid it all again twice, as there was an initial tech problem. I had already paid her and everything, yet she still went the extra mile. Before the trip we were concerned we had spent too much money, as it indeed is a bit pricey, but after an exceptional day with Polly, we think it was totally worth it!

Piyaporn was a fantastic guide and gave us one of the best days of our trip. She provided tips before our tour regarding timings to make sure we made the most of the day and also provided useful and detailed tips after our tour had ended to make the most of our time in Bangkok. I can't recommend Piyaporn enough, book their tour today!

Great experience to be shown around by locals. They have proven to be flexible in the planning and attended to our every need. Will book them again next time we’re in Bangkok.

Wow. What can I say? Our guide, Chatchai, and our driver are amazing! We had the best time and the most delicious meal. I learned so much about the culture and history of Thailand. We also appreciate so much the comfort they provided. We get dropped off and picked up so conveniently. They really took great care of us. I also had the most interesting and engaging conversations with Chatchai. I found a lot of surprising connections plus he’s super knowledgeable about a lot of topic. Thank you so much, Chatchai, for showing us a great time and for making us fall in love with Thailand even more. You are the best!

Moddy was extremely very knowledgeable about the sites we visited. She made sure to understand the topics/sites we were most interested in, and created a flexible itinerary for us to give us a more real-time personal experience. She was also very welcoming and friendly, which made our day even better. I would recommend Moddy to anyone visiting Ayutthaya!

We had a very beautiful day. Punctual pick-up at our residence,spacious van, clean and very professional driver. Kung-Kingkamon welcomed us warmly smiling. The day was full of discoveries in many ways, all explained in full knowledge of the facts. She made us notice and appreciate every little detail, photographing us in many situations; We will keep these precious memories with us forever! Between one stop and the next, the driver, was waiting for us in the front row with fresh water, without making us wait under the sun...highly recommended!

We could not have a had as good a time as we did had it not been for Chatchai. We found Chatchai on an app called With Locals. The same app we used in Singapore. Chatchai arranged everything, taxis, Tuk tuks, a car service, the boat ride. He got us all of the admission tickets. His college background is in food science and he along with some friends own a restaurant. His passion is history. He knew everything about the sites we visited. And as. Buddhist was able to explain the meaning and significance of the fabulous things we saw. A big hats off and shout out to Chatchai. Thank You!!!
