Mit Pai hatten wir einen wunderschönen Tag quer durch Phuket. Sie hat all unsere Wünsche und Vorstellungen umgesetzt, selbst spontane Stops waren kein Problem. Sie hat uns viel über Phuket und Thailand erzählt, die Verständigung in Englisch war super. Wir können Pai nur Empfehlen. 😊

Ruetai was an amazing guide. Extremely knowledgeable and an absolute must to have for a tour through the Phuket Old Town. She taught and showed us things that you just don’t find on your own. Ruetai was worth every dollar, and I would highly recommend Ruetai. I will certainly be recommending her to all my clients on their next visit to Phuket.

Exploring the old town of Phuket with Pai was an unforgettable experience! Pai is hands down one of the best tour guides I’ve ever had. Her kindness, extensive knowledge, professionalism, and flexibility truly set her apart. She took the time to ensure we didn’t feel rushed, tailoring the tour to meet our specific interests and needs. Pai’s ability to connect with her clients and her passion for sharing the beauty and history of Phuket made the tour exceptionally enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to discover the hidden gems of Phuket.

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.

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.

We had the best time with 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!

Great route of local delights, new and interesting experiences. Ruetai also provides some cultural background.

Pai was very friendly and knowledgeable and put up with our youngest child being grumpy! She was very knowledgeable and introduced us to local food and drink. Pain provided us with an insight into local life as well as the historical significance of sites. Highly recommend!

We were in Phuket during the Phuket Vegetarian Festival so it was an amazing oportunity to try lots of vegetarian dishes or veggie options of food traditionally made with meat. With the help of our amazing guide Pai we got to try and fall in love with dishes we would never otherwise discover!

Logistics Pai met us with a sign right at exit to Dolphin Pier tender port. Due to cruise ship, we were 1 hour late. Still got more than 5 hour tour in super clean comfortable minivan. The only shopping we did was look for a print of bank. she bypassed most shop instead showing us several museum and mix of Eurofront Sino inside houses. Sea dragon statue at town center wonderful temples. Big Budda. Lunch excellent prawns and fish was extra; worth it! 30 minutes to spare at port

We had the most amazing time in Phuket with Ruetai! Her willingness to customize our Phuket experience was exceptional. We were able to spend some time with the “stilt fishermen” and I actually was able to give it a try. What an experience! We were fortunate enough to be in Phuket when Red Bull was hosting a surf competition so we spent time watching that. Perhaps the highlight was going to the tea plantation and, along the way, stopping to watch people picking rice. I would highly recommend her!

I had an amazing trip with Pai!! I was the classic ‘bad customer’, changing dates, changing itinerary and just being a general pain – but Pai rose above and beyond all my demands to make sure I had an absolutely superb day while being very kind and helpful and creating the perfect tour for me!! I cannot recommend her and her tours enough – I would definitely book with her again if/when I return to Phuket! I’m only sorry I didn’t plan for more time in Phuket to have more adventures. Many thanks indeed!

This is a brilliant trip, highly recommend! Well worth the money. We had 9 people on our boat which is the perfect amount, So much to see on this and the canoeing is so much fun! Lunch is THAI food in the floating village which was great to. Our tour guide Pai was brilliant, She kept us updated the day before with what to wear for the temple and pick up times! On the day she was so friendly and helpful to everyone, She told us many facts about everything and made sure we all knew the next step of the tour and timings to meet back and also took so many great photos for us! I highly recommend her as your guide. Our driver It was also very professional, friendly and on time picking us up and waiting for us at the end of the tour. Thank you both for a great day out!

Pai is a kind, energetic and passionate guide. My wife’s wheelchair was easily stowed in a plush 9 seat van. We strolled thru Phuket Old Town, had a birds eye view of old town and ocean from a park on the hill where a native monkey ate peanuts from a pilfered cup. Then to a requested mall visit for a yummy Thai lunch and a stop at a colorful Jim Thompson silk store. Then to a large (Chalong) Buddhist temple complex and a drive by the white sands and beachy vibe of Rawai and nearby beaches. Take this tour

We had Pai & It for our guide and driver and they were both absolutely spectacular. Pai had the best personality and was a pleasure to spend the day with. In terms of the tour- this was truly the best day of our entire journey. The longboat journey to James Bond Island was beautiful. We drove past the mangroves and there were so many islands to see – untouched beauty. The lunch on the fishing village was great as well. The canoeing was spectacular! No complaints! Highly highly reccomend this tour. 10/10 for Pai as a guide.

This was a very enjoyable tour. The floating village and canoe ride were unique experiences. There were very few people when we arrived at the James Bond island, we were lucky I guess. Our guide, Pai, was very friendly and provided lots of information about the places we visited and made us feel very safe. Also the driver, Cha, was very friendly and professional. I totally recommend this tour!
