We had a blast!
"We loved this food tour with Neena! Not only did she take us to some restaurants we would never have found ourselves, she also gave a lot of interesting information about Phuket and Thai culture in general! I myself am a vegetarian, but my 3 friends are not, Neena went above and beyond to make sure that we all had an amazing tasting-experience! 5-star-plus-tour! :) "

Review about Pathu
"Me and my partner enjoyed very much the time with Pathu ! She is nice, charismatic and knowledgeable. She has a good command of English. She told us and showed us a lot of interesting things about Phuket town. - The cultural/religion part of our walk was touching and energetically charged; - The food we tasted was delicious (we would never find this place without Pathu, because it’s a local one); - the bars she showed us had the best cocktails and very unique environment. We were enjoying every moment we were experiencing in Phuket town with Pathu as she is a great guide and a person. Highly recommended! You will not regret "

Tailored trip around Pukhet was a blast
"We booked a full day, 13 hour trip with Pai (Ruetai) around Phuket. We had already made a plan for a spa appointment in the middle of the day (only one available) and our flight home in the early evening, so we knew one of the bigger scheduled tours would not work for us. We reached out with some of our thoughts and she promptly provided us a sample itinerary that checked all our boxes. When I reached out to other companies, they either replied with the same sample itinerary from their website, or did not reply promptly at all. Many had lacking reviews or mixed reviews with claims like not being provided an English speaking guide which gave us pause. Pai as a tour guide was very knowledgeable - she knew many facts about Phuket, Thai culture, Buddhism, and each of the sites we visited. Her answers usually piqued our interest and would lead to longer casual conversations as we learned more and more. Her willingness to work around our unusual schedule made our trip possible. Her suggestions for different stops - like the cashew factory - made our tour feel personalized and more intimate. Importantly, she always had a smile on her face and would share funny stories and good times with us, often helping us take the goofy photos we wanted at our stops. Her English is fluent and we had no trouble conversing at length. Our travel was very comfortable in a typical luxury Thai van. Water, coca-cola and towelettes were provided and refreshing on a hot day. We took her recommendation for lunch and quite enjoyed it as well. The driver drove in a very safe manner. We arrived on time to all of our appointments. My group and I highly recommend a trip with her. If we return we would be sure to reach out to see a second day of Phuket, and we will be recommending her to friends and family who travel to the region."

A great excusion to the Phi Phi Islands!
"We had the best time with Pathu (Pai), our tour guide, today! What a memorable trip. She picked us up straight from our hotel and took us to the Marina where a private boat awaited us. From there we went on an exploration of several of the islands around Phuket. We were able to swim, snorkel, watch monkeys play, hang out in the beach, sunbath, and enjoy an amazing lunch! Beverages and a fruit platter were also included. The boat was clean and spacious, the crew was professional, friendly, and competent. Pai could not have been nicer or more helpful. She arranged everything and made sure we all had a great time. I give her my highest recommendation. The waters around Phuket are so crystal clear and beautiful. The sand is so fine it has the texture of flour. The coral reefs are teeming with colorful fish. This excursion will be one of the highlights of our trip to Thailand!"

Learn about Phuket's history
"I had an amazing three hours with Pathu. We met in the museum and she explained the exhibition to me. Then we visited a typical Phuket house, several temples and streets in Old Town Phuket. Pathu is very knowledgeable about history and architecture and made great links to what we had seen in the museum. Most of all, she explained the diverse and fascinating cultural heritage of the Thai people in Phuket. I highly recommend this tour."

Excellent tour of Phuket old town
"Pathu was a very knowledgeable and confident guide and the afternoon exceeded expectations. One of the best walking tours I have been on. The tour gave us a really good feeling for Phuket’s history both as part of Thailand and as part of the region, as well as simply explaining what all the buildings we walked by were and had been in the past. Pathu has a strong connection to the place and clearly loves her job. You may have the option to start the tour in a museum. Although this adds to the cost and isn’t essential it is a really worthwhile deep dive into the history of Phuket through the stories and artifacts of one family. "

A fantastic way to spend 3 hours
"It was lovely to meet Pathu and to have her show us around some of the top local food spots in Phuket old town. You should go hungry as there is a LOT of food! She is really knowledgeable about the local area and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with her. Highly recommended!"

Great food with good people
"This was my first time using withlocals. The local I booked with turned out to be busy so one of the other withlocals workers took me and my wife on a tour of food in Phuket. It was all very delicious and as an added bonus got a lot of good history/local information."

Beautiful lady, magic smile
"We wanted something more personalised and less mass tourist destinations, and she delivered a fabulous day for us away from the crowds and around the local people with hands on experiences to savour. We texted back and forth with ideas and she understood our desires. On the day we were running ahead of the schedule so she detoured to a couple of small spots en route which were great. Beautiful smile, happy personality. Don’t have second thoughts, book her and you won’t be disappointed."

Private & Personalized Tours in Phuket with a Local
When you hit the road and land in a new city like Phuket, there's an exciting way to dive into its soul: personalized local tours. Forget the typical touristy routes – these tours are like having a local friend show you around all the cool spots.
Imagine having someone who lives and breathes Phuket spill its secrets. That's what local guides bring to the table. They know the hidden alleys, the best bites, and stories that never made it to the guidebooks. Whether you're into munching through food tours, wandering the city's streets, or going off the beaten path, a local guide hooks you up with a private tour that's authentically Phuket.
The best part? These tours are all about you. No herding in big groups or rushing through places you're not interested in. With private tours, you're the boss. Whether it's snapping pics at iconic landmarks, diving into history, or checking out the art scene, the tour is tuned to your vibes at your tempo.
But it doesn't stop at city limits. Day trips let you escape the urban jungle and explore nearby wonders. And if you're just setting foot in Phuket, kickstart tours give you a taste of everything. Think of it as a crash course in Phuket awesomeness, guided by a local who knows the city like the back of their hand.
So, next time you're in Phuket, ditch the ordinary. Grab a local tour and unlock the city's real magic – the stories, flavors, and places that make it uniquely Phuket. Get ready to explore like a local!
