Good Traveling, Lasting Impact.

Our Story
It started with a question…why do people have to leave their hometowns to work in Bangkok? That question created Local Alike and it’s where we started. A social enterprise that helps communities grow from within through Community-Based Tourism. We work hand-in-hand with local people to turn their culture, wisdom, and way of life into meaningful travel experiences.
Every trip supports local jobs, preserves traditions, and connects travelers with real stories. Because when communities can live well at home, travel becomes more than just a journey, it becomes a way to make a difference.
We work hand-in-hand with local people to turn their culture, wisdom, and way of life into meaningful travel.
