Thai cooking class in Krabi - This was a great course, New was a fantastic teacher, very friendly, and taught us much more than expected. The visit to the market was great and new took us around explaining all the different fruit, veg, herbs, sauces and plenty of other things. Back at the school we learnt so many recipes. I would highly recommend this cooking school and New as the teacher

Authentic experience using fresh ingredients, fun and experienced teacher. - My family of 10 really enjoyed the cooking class. Our teacher first took us to the market and showed us around, showing us Thai vegetables and spices used in traditional Thai cooking. We bought a few herbs to go with our meals. We went back to the cooking school and our teacher showed us how to make 5 courses, including spring rolls, soup, noodles/fried rice, a curry, and mango sticky rice. There was time to sit and enjoy each course. Everything we made using fresh ingredients with excellent instructions. We even made our own curry paste! Our teacher was so fun and we could tell she absolutely loved to teach. She took the time to explain the fundamental ingredients for authentic Thai flavors. We did use a gas stove with very hot flames to cook so consider this when bringing children. Overall we had a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend this cooking class to anyone who wants to learn how to cook Thai food.

Amazing experience from start to finish - Crew and food was amazing. Our teacher was funny, kind, informative, and went above and beyond. She even helped us with further recommendations for Krabi and drove us to our next stop. She was just great, and the food was amazing. I can’t recommend them enough!

book this for the best cooking class ever! - This was such an amazing cooking class I highly recommend it! I was the only one in the class but they still did it anyway! We toured a local market and she took me around and told me all about the local fruits, she even bought some for us to try! The cooking itself was amazing and I felt like a pro! She took pictures the whole time and sent them to me for free at the end. I even got an online cookbook with all the recipes. This is by far the best thing I have done in Krabi! BOOK THIS!!!

Me and my friends have mixed experience with cooking but we all learned so much and were able to cook amazing tasty thai dishes with fresh ingredients. We were able to choose which dishes we wanted to make, it was such an amazing experience and can’t wait to make them back home.

This is the one to choose in Ao Nang! - What an awesome experience! Of course I had the best group of people with me for this amazing experience as well, but the lady called New was just so cool! She has such a fun personality! You will feel like you’re visiting an aunty! It’s so authentic and she’s not just giving you the customer service version of herself. You will be like visiting her home. I’m assuming it’s all her family members helping out and her little son was the cutest. If you’re in a dilemma about who to choose then you should def support her family business! Also! The market tour was GREAT!

Great Cooking Class experience! But dont book via Viator - It was a great experience with Chef New. She is very patient in explaining the ingredients during our Market Tour, and she is a good teacher in explaining the steps from preparation to cooking. You will definitely pick up some skills as she will make you do it yourself but patiently guiding you along. She is also an amazing photographer! She took some great photos during the session. As this is non AC environment, try to wear long pants to avoid getting bitten by mosquitoes. I would recommend booking direct with Authentic Thai Cooking School. It was a bad experience booking through Viator, who was unresponsive, and contact details given on the confirmation page was incorrect.

Great cooking experience, but poor experience booking via Viator - The cooking experience was great. However, booking via Viator is not a great experience. 1. In the description, they mentioned that they will reach out to you on pick-up time after you have booked, but I dont hear from them. I hv to text Viator instead. 2. The pick-up time provided by Viator was incorrect. I was told to expect pick-up between 9.15am to 9.30am for the 10am class. No one turned up. I tried looking for contact information from the booking confirmation. No one reply me from the Viator chat function. 3. The cooking school contact information was a number that is not in-use. All these are very frustrating experiences, and I would not recommend to book via Viator.
