A.wonderful culinary adventure in Chinatown. A highlight of the holiday! - We absolutely loved the food tour! It is truly one of the highlights of our stay in Bangkok and Thailand. The guide was super friendly and knowledgeable. We went to back alleys and restaurants that I would never have dared to enter, yet … they were amazing. You get a real feel of Chinatown and the food is absolutely delicious! It was great to start our 3 weeks in Thailand with this tour because we learned so much about Thai cuisine and it gave us courage to try out new dishes wherever we were. The group was small and we had great fun with other participants. I will definitely book a tour like this again in other cities I will visit.

My 2nd in a row - next month I'll do the 3rd. - This experience was beyond words - truly the best value you could ask for. Everything was spot-on: the guides were fantastic, their English was excellent, and the food… WOW. So much delicious food! 😋. Pro tip: take small bites if you want to savor it all without missing a thing. It felt like walking through a live museum of food and culture - vibrant, authentic, and deeply satisfying.

LOVED this tour for our family of 4! - This food tour is an absolute highlight of our two weeks in Thailand. Annie, our guide, was amazing. She is a local and shared her love for her food and passion for where she lives. We learned so much from her, both about local foods, but also about life in Thailand and specifically in Bangkok. We went as a family of four and Annie took particular strides to help our 10 and 13 year olds try things and feel excited about the experience. Now that our trip is over they both said it was one of their favorite experiences of the whole trip. It was also my husbands birthday and they surprised him with a really thoughtful treat at the end of the tour. The whole tour was so thoughtfully done. A truly unforgettable experience. 10/10 recommend!

Lovely tour! Delicious food - Rach was an amazing guide- so kind and friendly. We got to try so much food -19 different Thai foods (appetizers, snacks, dessert, a whisky, main purse and two desserts ). I loved that this was a walking tour. We got to see all over Chinatown and try so many different dishes. My two teens really enjoyed the tour too! Highly recommend. DO NOT eat before the tour, I would recommend just having breakfast and skipping lunch the day of the tour. Wear good walking shoes. Enjoy!

Totally recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - My wife and I took the food tour and loved it. The variety of great tasting foods and the fun facts about local cultures and cuisines made it a really unique experience. Our guide Fon was awesome too. She really knew her stuff and was always fun to be around. She even went out of her way to find me some fried bugs (not normally part of the experience) after hearing that I wanted to try them. Thanks to Fon I can now add scorpion to the long list of strange things I've eaten lol
If you enjoy fun times and trying new foods, then you should really book this tour for your next visit to Bangkok

We had Rach as our food... - We had Rach as our food guide and he was awesome! Very knowledgeable. The tour was good pace. There is a lot of food it’s good to pace yourself. It was cool to see Thai culture and the back streets of places. There was also many Michelin star places!
