We had an incredible private tour with Sasa, our guide, and Mr. Noi, our tuk tuk driver. Having the tour at night was special because it allowed us to see a different side of the city, and enjoy the cooler temperatures. The pacing and schedule of the tour was great, allowing us to eat throughout without getting full, and feeling like we saw a lot without feeling rushed. Sasa was an excellent guide, with tons of knowledge and impeccable English. Her relationships with the local vendors was also a real plus. We felt like VIPs getting ushered to the front of the line at a Michelin restaurant and street food carts alike. Mr. Noi always made us feel safe driving through the hectic streets, while also making sure we didn't sit in any unnecessary traffic. Even better, they made a great photography team, lining up perfect shots and lighting over and over again. Quick tip: if you arrive at Krung Thon Buri BTS station on the Gold Line from Icon Siam, you can just go up to the ticket booth and request a pass to go through the Green Line station to Exit #1 to meet your guide.

Our guide, Nun, was energetic and fun and gave us a local’s insight into Bangkok night life. We sampled some great specialties at the night market and restaurant, saw china town’s streets and Bangkok temples by night and even went to the flower market. I would go this again. Great night for the family!

Absolutely brilliant. Cannot imagine my trip to Bangkok being as good without this tour. As a solo traveller this tour took me to see so many different parts of the city I wouldn’t have made it to on my own. Fantastic food!! Amazing guide Kevin and lovely drivers 100000/10. Thanks so much

Sasa was the most amazing tour guide!! She has the best energy and is very professional and organized while also being super entertaining. By the end of our tour she had us all engaging with each other - it was a fabulous night. The Tuk Tuk drivers were great too. Everyone must take this tour.

Sasa was a great guide. The variety of the tour was fabulous. We loved the flower market, old town market, and the temple where we fed the turtles. It was so fun riding in the tuk tuks.

It was one of the best tours I’ve had in a while. Firstly our tour guide was absolutely fantastic! Friendly, very knowledgeable, energetic, he created an amazing atmosphere! Also the tour was quite exciting, the tuk tuk experience by itself is a high light. But we also visited great places - authentic Thai market, temples. Highly recommend!

Such a fun and informative night. Tony was a great guide/host. He made sure we were well fed and gave us a wonderful overview of Bangkok. The city is vibrant and beautiful at night.

Our tour guide was Sasa NOT Suzie she made that very clear lol. Sasa was very funny and made sure everyone has a great time, very knowledgeable, also was very accommodating to us considering we only ate Halal. She got us these fried mushroom which were amazing I would ask her for that if you can’t eat the meat. And driving around at night was fun, TukTuk drivers were very dedicated and professional and drove us back home too. Learned a lot and ate very good food at the restaurant. Definitely recommend people to try this!
