Sawasdee ka! I'm Buay, a friendly and enthusiastic host in the vibrant city of Bangkok. My heart is deeply connected to this city's rich history, the exquisite traditional Thai arts and designs found in our temples, and, of course, the irresistible Thai cuisine and local street food. I adore wandering around Bangkok's majestic temples and museums, soaking in the cultural heritage that each corner of this city offers. As a lover of Thai arts and history, I'm excited to share insights about Bangkok's past and present. For those who appreciate a good cup of coffee and the beauty of street art, I know countless hidden gems and beautiful cafes across Bangkok. Let's explore the heart of Thai culture together in this enchanting city!

My reviews

Buay listened to our preferred list of things to do and took care of all the logistics. Was a great first day in Thailand! Highly recommended for an easy way to see all of Bangkok in a short period of time

Buay was amazing! She was so sweet and kind. Unfortunately after filling out the questionnaire and making notes the tour was not what we were looking for. However, my children really enjoyed the tour!

She made me have a super special and extremely memorable day. Her knowledge and warm personality really made the tour super fun. She goes out of the way to make you love her hometown and you will always want more time with her. So ensure you book her in advance as her tours are “THE BEST!!!”

I recommend this tour. We went to the places that most interested us and added on an unexpected and very interesting canal boat trip, arranged as we were walking through the Palace. Despite the arrival of the king causing closure of a temple Buay was able to navigate all the logistics
