These are local guides and drivers I have personally travelled with and am happy to recommend from my own experience. They are not selected from advertisements or online listings.
Thailand
Pacharee Kae เก๋
Kae is a friend of mine and someone I turn to when friends from overseas visit Bangkok. She offers private tours that can be tailored around what you enjoy, or she can plan the day for you.
From tuk-tuk rides and local food walks to boat trips through lesser-seen parts of Bangkok, Kae offers a more personal way to discover the city beyond the usual sights.

Myanmar | Yangon, Mandalay, Bagan
Sai Shang Heing Ryu
Ryu ริว
Ryu is a local guide in Myanmar who speaks Thai fluently and has an excellent knowledge of Myanmar’s history and culture. He took my family and me around Yangon, and later helped arrange our trips to Mandalay and Bagan.
Friendly, knowledgeable and easy to travel with, Ryu made exploring Myanmar much more interesting through the stories and history behind each place.
Vietnam | Hanoi, Sapa, Ninh Binh
Lanna Pham ลานนา
Lanna is a Thai-speaking local guide in Vietnam specialising in trips for Thai travellers. I was introduced to her through a friend, and she helped book my hotel in Sapa and arrange a private car for the trip.
Friendly and attentive, travelling with Lanna feels like exploring Vietnam with a trusted local friend.

Phan Huy
Phan is a local driver who has driven me on several trips through Central Vietnam, including Da Nang, Hue and Hoi An. He knows the area well—from places to visit to where to eat—and shares local stories along the way. He can also communicate comfortably in English.
He usually drives his own private car, but can arrange a smaller or larger vehicle depending on your group size. Reliable and flexible, Phan makes it easy to explore Central Vietnam at your own pace.
