Pattaya
Escape the neon nightlife and discover a different side of Pattaya. Beyond the tourist postcards; we're exploring Naklua, a 100-year-old traditional fishing enclave. If you want to know what this town really tastes like, you have to look where the locals are fuelling up. Our evening feasting tour of 14+ tastings invites guests on a culinary experience around the backstreets of Pattaya led by our team of professional foodie guides. Before we get started, the tour reflects the local cuisine and the limitations of street food vendors means we unfortunately cannot cater for every dietary restriction. Here's an honest appraisal for the tour so no-one is disappointed: ✖️Vegetarians have 3-4 less tastings due to limited alternatives at some vendors. ✖️Unsuitable for severe allergies, halal and celiac diets due to risk of traces and cross-contamination.

Lan Pho Na Kluea Market
Begin at the Old Market, where our foodie guide will navigate the fresh seafood brought in from the boats bobbing in the harbour. Tuck into a bowl of kuay jub rolled noodles, swimming in a dark, aromatic broth that carries a black pepper kick. Welcome to 'Old Pattaya' - a place of wooden shopfronts and narrow alleys where family lineages stretch back way further than the first tourist resort. Watch as clouds of steam rise from backstreets marked by conical steamers with space-age lids, hiding fluffy moo daeng pork buns.

JT was absolutely amazing. He is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, speaks clearly and provides the history and background for each dish and location. This is a must do tour when visiting Pattaya- it will guide you where to eat for the rest of your trip!
