5.00I can’t recommend this enough! It was such a fun experience on a beautiful farm in Chiang Mai. I enjoyed the quick stop to the market on the way as well. I took many photos but also received several professional quality photos taken by our instructor, who was awesome. So is informative and energetic.. she made the whole experience really fun. This was definitely a highlight of my solo trip to Thailand!
Very enjoyable

5.00I’ve been to many cooking classes all over the world and this was by far THE BEST!! I wish I could remember the name of our teacher because she was SO much fun!! She had us all laughing and having a great time! The food we cooked was excellent. The atmosphere was fun, relaxed and beautiful. We learned a lot at the market, then in their organic garden as well. I can’t recommend them enough, and that’s saying a lot for me 😆 *We opted for the upgraded air conditioned room and it was so comfortable, even for me who Is hot all the time!

5.00Incredibly well organized cooking class with enthusiastic instructors. Every dish was very tasty. You can adjust the level of spice. We could not finish everything we made. I highly recommend this tour. Our teacher, Tida, was very helpful and could be a stand up comic
Fun cooking experience

5.00This was an excellent way to spend half a day in Chiang Mai. Our host was amazing , educating us at the market and the onsite garden before starting on the meals. You can choose 3 dishes to make plus the dessert. If you are a couple you can make and try 6 dishes between you which we did. The instructions were clear, the process was fun and the results were delicious. A bonus was the booklet of all the recipes at the end.
Lot's of fun, tasty cooking, great people!

5.00I went in without any expectations and came out amazed. It was a lot of fun, I can highly recommend this class to almost anyone, you don't need to be a cooking enthusiast or knowledgeable in (Thai) cooking. The class is very engaging from beginning to end: The ride with the iconic Songthaew, visiting the local market and trying rice waffles, walking around the farms garden, feeding the turtles, cooking the three different meals + Thai tea + mango rice, and of course eating the meals. The location is very beautiful with a lot of decorations (including Lanna lanterns of course :D), especially in the evening. But I think the best thing were the people there, they were all very fun and friendly. The instructor was awesome, she did a great job at explaining and was full of interesting site facts. I wouldn't have thought that a cooking class can be this much fun, but now I would even say that it is a must do for any Chiang Mai visit!
Highly recommend
