How the Free & Tip-Based System Works
This is a genuine free walking tour of Bangkok nightlife (ทัวร์เดินฟรี
กรุงเทพฯ ตอนกลางคืน), not a bar promotion or agency package. There is
no fixed ticket price for the guiding. You join the Bangkok Nightlife
Walking Tour, experience the night with the group, and at the end you
decide how much to tip your guide based on how much you enjoyed it.
All personal expenses during the tour are paid directly by you:
BTS/MRT tickets, any drinks or snacks you choose to order, and your
transport home after the tour. We choose venues with no entrance fee
whenever possible, and you are always free to decide if you want to
drink alcohol or not.
-
No booking fee: there is no charge to reserve your
spot on the tour.
-
No agency commission: we are not paid by bars or
venues. This is not a standard Bangkok nightlife tour package; it is
an independent free tour.
-
You tip what you feel: most guests tip between
400–600 THB per person, depending on their budget
and how much they enjoyed the walk and explanations.
-
Drinks and food are not included: any cocktails,
beers, soft drinks or snacks are ordered and paid directly by you at
each place.
-
Transport is separate: your BTS/MRT to the meeting
point and your taxi or Grab at the end of the night are not included
in the tour.
-
Cash is recommended: many nightlife spots still
prefer cash, and it is the simplest way to tip your guide at the end
of the tour.
This tip-based system keeps the tour accessible for solo travelers,
couples and small groups, while rewarding good guiding and giving you
full control over how much you spend on your Bangkok nightlife
experience.
