"I totally enjoyed my 10 Tastings of Phuket Town tour with Pathu. She was kind, knowledgeable, and a truly wonderful host who generously shared her culture and experiences with me. What a perfect way to experience the Sunday night market and old Phuket town area! "
"This was exactly what we were looking for, and gave our trip the spice that was missing. Ruetai was lovely, an incredible tour guide and we will cherish the memories she helped build that night showing us around the genuine local eateries, trying Cuisine that we would never know about or think to try without being guided. Thank you kindly from Dan and Sam "
"Pathu gave us a lovely insight as to where to eat like a local in the old town Phuket area. We thought we liked spicy food, however we worked out we are only a 1 chilli level, Pathu is a 3 chilli level and a lot of locals are a 5 chilli! We tasted some fabulous dishes, highlights were the green papaya salad and Pad KraPrao, plus mango sticky rice. It was interesting to learn some history whilst walking these picturesque streets and the Lard Yai Market. A great start to our Thailand adventure. "
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!
"We liked Pai the minute we met her, very warm and welcoming. We had no idea our day with Pai was going to be so enjoyable. She is very knowledgeable and customized our itinerary to leave out old town Phuket.(we had already seen what we wanted to there) She represents Thailand so well, shares insight to the culture and Buddhism “way of life” (not just a religion)
Sweet Pai can take a great photo too! There was not a single bad picture from the day and we will greatly enjoy the memories when we look at these pictures in the years to come."

Review about Patthanant
"Jo was an amazing guide! She was so friendly, funny, and full of great stories about Phuket and Old Town. We loved how relaxed and enjoyable the day felt — she really made the experience special. Her driver was also fantastic, super helpful, and even stayed late to take us back after dinner, which we really appreciated. Highly recommend booking a tour with Jo if you want a fun, personal, and memorable experience in Phuket!"

Fantastic Day with Re Jay!
"We spent all day exploring Phuket with Re Jay. He was very knowledgeable and fun to spend the day with. We would highly recommend this tour and would do another tour with him if we were here longer.

Great Day Out!
"Had a great day out with VJ today, not only was he the driver, he was my tour guide as well. Booking was easy and I was shown so many different options of what I might be interested in for the day. I simply sent my selection to VJ the day prior and he gave advice on what he thought was best. He was very knowledgeable about the history of Phuket and gave a running commentary on the highlights as we went along. He was more than happy to engage in conversations outside of the tour as well. Driving was excellent, the vehicle was clean & tidy, seat belts for all passengers and cold water available as you need 😀
Could not recommend this Tour and VJ more, what a great day!👍😎"
"We had a fabulous morning in Old Phuket with Pathu. As we had young children we wanted a bespoke tour that allowed the children to enjoy Phuket with plenty of stops to cool off and eat! Pathu catered to the children without sacrificing telling the adults about the history of the area. She showed us a temple, museums, the beautiful architecture and famous landmarks whilst showing the children the best stops for ice cream, lunch and the final stop at a beautiful Thai chocolate store! We had the best food of the holiday at the little food market she took us too and the kids loved the Phuket noodles she introduced us to! Thank you so much for a lovely day!"
