A beautiful day in Thailand 🇹🇭 - An amazing day exploring markets, visiting a temple, and having lunch in a local restaurant. This was a private tour and the tour guide was quite knowledgeable about Thai culture and taught us so much. Our guide explained the what’s and whys of Thailand throughout the day. She made us feel comfortable and excited for our next stop. A very enjoyable day!

Historic and Picturesque Markets of Bangkok - As a solo female non-Thai-speaking traveler visiting Bangkok for the first time, I had some trepidation about wandering through a market alone. This tour solved all my problems - I really felt I was exploring the market with a friend. My guide negotiated with the vendors, found street-foods I had mentioned wanting to try, took photos for me, and knew exactly where to find bathrooms and fireflies ✨ This tour is a 6-hour commitment - but well worth the expense and time. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
