From rich, aromatic curries to fresh seafood and traditional Thai sweets, every bite tells a story of Phuket’s diverse heritage from Chinese, Malay and Burmese influences. Phuket Old town really is the beating heart of Southern Thailand's world famous food scene. Join us as we explore the heart of the island through its most authentic and delicious dishes!

5.00This was my first time taking a Secret Food Tour and it was outstanding. Our guide Mindy was flexible, fun, and totally adaptable. When a place was closed, she had another ready. We visited so many interesting places and ate great food in just the right portions. It was a great way to see Old Town Phuket and would recommend it especially during this lovely cool season.
Brilliant!

5.00What an amazing experience. So many delicious foods to try. Great tour around places you'd never find on your own. We tried to return to two, both were sold out by afternoon, they were that good. We did manage to get into the restaurantwhere we had the fantastic moo kong (pork stew? Warangkana our guide was fantastic. I'd highly recommend this tour.

5.00Gigi was an informative and considerate guide. Come hungry as there are so many dishes and not just one bite of each. She knew several of the business owners personally which was more meaningful.
Must try !

5.00Loved this tour! It was my first time in Thailand and it was a great way to be introduced to Thai cuisine and culture. Our guide was lovely, very friendly and had lots of interesting fact and stories about life in Phuket. She made the information very relatable and was great at answering any questions we had. The food was all delicious and clearly carefully selected to teach us the history and different cultures that make Phuket the special place that it is. I would recommend the tour to anyone visiting Phuket!
