Fun way to see the sights and really pretty at night. Street food was excellent thanks to Kung sharing her knowledge of what each dish was. Kung was great fun we went to street food market, flower market, Chinatown and a local restaurant for a prawn pad tai which was delicious. A great way to start our holiday in Thailand

Jazzy was a joy. Such a fun way to get to see the city at night and learn the basics of street food. Cannot recommend enough!

We had a great tour with Sa-Sa, who is knowledgeable and entertaining. It was fun zipping around Bangkok in our convoy of 4 tuk-tuks and the temples look fantastic lit up. We fed turtles at one and Sa-Sa told us about the missionary Dr Bradley. The markets were interesting, especially the flower market. The food was good but not a main focus for us - it’s more of a fun cultural tour than a street food tour.

One of the best experience we have had in Bangkok. Our guide shared his knowledge of history. We visited a local market and got to taste many local foods. Went to their 24 hours flower market. Had dinner at the best pad Thai restorant in Bangkok. Tour ended in China town and we got a Tuk Tuk ride back to our hotel. Would highly recommend.

We have taken many tours and this one tops the list. Everything was perfect from start to finish. Prior to the tour we were informed which train line to use and were greeted immediately upon our arrival at the meeting place. Then the group of 12 in 6 Tuk Tuks rode seamlessly through Bangkok, hitting the food market, some temples, the flower market and Chinatown. We had amazing street food and a wonderful meal at a well known restaurant. The guide was extremely professional, exceptionally organized and very knowledgeable. The drivers worked as a team and were very friendly. We even got dropped off at our hotel at the end of the tour.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Review I booked this thinking it would be a simple food and temple tour. It turned into so much more. Jib and the tuk tuk drivers delivered a full, immersive deep dive into Thai history, culture, and the real Bangkok night scene. Jib was genuinely one of the sweetest guides I’ve ever met—patient, knowledgeable, and willing to answer every single question without rushing a thing. Dinner was outstanding and set in the most beautiful riverside restaurant I’ve seen in Bangkok. The city truly comes alive at night, and the food stops she curated were spot-on. Every vendor, every dish—authentic, vibrant, and absolutely delicious. As a chef, I don’t get impressed easily. Tonight did it. This experience left a true culinary imprint I’ll carry home with me. If you’re coming to Bangkok, this is the tour you book—no hesitation

Sass was a great tour guide! She was very enthusiastic, informative, and kind. She was so sweet in taking photos of everyone in front of the temples and sights. The bites we tried were delicious and the Michelin Pad Thai we had for dinner was outstanding. I highly recommend the tour !
