Ada Huang

Hello, I'm Ada, a specialist based in Thailand. I have a passion for adventure and enjoy discovering new things. Traveling allows me to connect with people, immerse myself in local cultures, and rejuvenate both body and mind. With over fifteen years of experience as a tour guide, I draw on my local expertise and industry connections to create tailored experiences as a local specialist.

Thailand is the country I'm most eager to introduce to you. It boasts a rich history, diverse wildlife, and stunning beaches. In Bangkok and its surroundings, you can explore iconic historical sites and delve into local life. Chiang Mai offers opportunities to interact with elephants and savor the unique food culture. Finally, unwind in a beach paradise, lounging on soft sands and engaging in exciting activities. Thailand eagerly awaits your exploration, and I am thrilled to customize the perfect trip for you!

How did you get involved in travel?

"During my college years, I frequently coordinated hiking, cycling, and mountain climbing trips for my classmates and friends on weekends. These experiences reaffirmed my love for exploring new landscapes and immersing myself in local cultures. Following graduation, I pursued a career as an English-speaking tour guide, a role I dedicated over fifteen years to before transitioning into my current position as a local specialist."

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"One of the most memorable experiences was my first hiking trip. After an hour-long train ride and another hour on a local bus, we reached the base of the mountain. The ten-hour ascent took us through bamboo groves, where we marveled at wildflowers along the trail and enjoyed breathtaking panoramic views from the mountaintop. This unforgettable adventure left an indelible mark on my mind, ensuring it will be cherished for a lifetime."

Guide Mike was fantastic! Great attitude, lots of information, took us on extra trips not in itinerary and walked us to specific shopping stores! Jim got friendly as time went on trying to use his English skills. Loved the cold water and wash cloths! I'm keeping Mike's card just in case I need it again.

We would recommend letting folks know that you spend a lot of your time in traffic in Bangkok - that was a surprise to us.
