Nok is the best!!!! We totally didn’t feel like we were on a tour. It was like having a really good friend showing you around. As a Thai-American, I really appreciated her having us try all different types of food and beverages. She even made sure to stage us properly and took some really awesome photos. I would love to hang out with her again on another tour during my next visit to Thailand!!!

Nok gave us an awesome tour today to the Maeklong Railway and the Ahphawa floating markets….which really exceeded our expectations! We had several refreshments and snacks as we waited for the train to arrive and then the excitement of watching the train was so much fun. Nok was very patient and friendly, taking excellent photos of our group and the fun we had with the train, stopping at a beautiful Wat, and then exploring the markets later that afternoon. I think our private evening boat ride watching the sun go down and enjoying fireflies coming out was our favorite part. Of course a very filling and delicious dinner topped off the evening. We highly recommend Nok for her very friendly personality, helpfulness and genuine desire to make our tour fund and memorable. Her communication skills are excellent. You will enjoy her knowledge and experience!
