Unforgettable experience

5.00We like to do a food tour when travelling and this was one of the best A fabulous, memorable evening led by Jay who was caring, knowledgeable and fun The tour flowed effortlessly as we sampled food in 3 different markets and by the end of the evening were completely full of many different foods from different regions of Thailand. A great group of five from three countries who bonded quickly The tour has given me more confidence to eat in the markets encouraged by brilliant Jay. I really recommend this tour. Communication before hand was faultless We missed out on the whiskey as it was election night and the sale of all alcohol was banned
Fantastic time

5.00This was a fantastic evening fully worth the price that included a worry free pick up in a very nice suv from our hotel. We were a small group of 5 and immediately clicked. Our tour guide Jay was efficient, funny, and took care of all our needs from finding tables, water, cutlery, napkins, he was on it. He always explained the ingredients and taught us how to order dishes in Thai...which we had to put in practice at one of the food stands. The food: so much variety and plenty of it. We were all very full by the time dessert round came. There must have been 12 dishes and 6 different desserts ..we had to take some home. I would recommend this hands down. Took away the hassle of knowing where to go, transportation/parking, seating...and also no waiting in line. Thanks Jay!!
A Lot of Food

5.00Great tour with a ton of food. I really enjoyed the tour as we went so many places. I wouldn't have found these on my own. The tour was in a minivan so we were able to cover multiple areas. Highly recommend this tour!

5.00We decided on this tour as we only had a few days in Chiang Mai and were so glad we did . There were 5 in our group and our guide Jay collected us and drove us to the night street food markets. We visited several locations . All were scrupulously clean , offering a wide variety of local dishes.Jay came well prepared with a folder of information for each participant giving detailed info on the ingredients in many traditional Malaysian dishes . A highlight was when he encouraged us to order a dish for ourselves , supplying the relevant vocabulary . The food was tasty and varied . Jay advised on dishes for anyone who prefers less spice . We finished by drinking to each others’ health with a shot glass of Malaysian whisky . Jay is excellent company and he quickly got tour group , from different countries , to bind together . Take this tour - you won’t regret it !

5.00Jay did an excellent job guiding us through various street food markets. We tried multiple dishes that were all delicious. He also provided us with a handout containing key phrases and dishes that we could use during the tour but also on other days. So thoughtful and handy!

5.00We absolutely loved this tour! Our guide Mr Goal was prompt on pickup and gave us and our new companions a night to remember. We tried a lot of dishes, maybe 30+, but what was nice is that you could eat as little or as much as you wanted. We learnt a lot about the local food markets and our guide made sure we were all happy and well fed and educated with a sense of humour too. Highly recommend
Great culinary tour in the city
