Kat took us to places we would have never gone. She even gave us other advice on things to do and buy.

I had a great time from start to finish. I explored the Floating Market, which was great, and then I was taken to the less known markets which were equally brilliant. Chalita was caring and attentive while not being overbearing. As a solo-traveller, her company was much appreciated.

Fantastic tour guide, fantastic tours! We hired Zarut for 5 days and could not have enjoyed a more perfect time! I have been to Bangkok before and had no intention of having a guide or a tour, but it was the best decision ever. He is so fun, friendly, knowledgeable and all-around a joy! Zarut did part of his education in American schools and his English language is impeccable and he really “gets” cultural nuances. Highly recommended!!!!

Zarut truly cares about those he is responsible for in his groups. He made sure we experienced exactly what we wanted and helped us navigate Bangkok as "the locals do". He communicated very well before, during and after our trip to make sure we had the best experience. Thank you for sharing your lovely city with us, Zarut!

What you’ll do

You'll need to get up bright and early for this one, but we promise it will be worth it to experience one of Bangkok's lesser-known floating markets! Let the city slip away discover a slightly slower pace in a traditional floating market as you explore these fascinating waterways with one of our local Bangkok hosts - a uniquely Thai experience.

Together, you'll choose a floating market to visit, which will be recommended by your host based on your preferences and the kind of experience you'd like to have. But our recommendation? Khlong Lat Mayom floating market, a local favorite which is known as “a food lover's paradise”, which floats along the narrow waterways of a small canal and will offer you an authentic glimpse into this tradition - of course, with lots of stops to try the delicacies on offer.

Or you could opt to visit a larger market, where you'll be swept up in this enchanting way of trading. Whatever your vibe, let your host know and they’ll take somewhere that suits - just come hungry because there are countless breakfast street eats to try!
