Just great! - This experience has brought me a lot of joy. Geng and his wife speak good English and have explained everything in detail. The ingredients were fresh, the kitchen was clean and we had plenty of time to prepare meals and eat afterwards. You noticed that there was a lot of love and dedication behind this activity. The two were very warm! I will definitely do that again!

Highlight of the trip - I had the pleasure of attending a great cooking class in Thailand that far exceeded my expectations! The course began with a fascinating visit to a local market where we bought fresh ingredients directly from the vendors. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and explained a lot about the different spices, herbs and products that are typical of Thai cuisine. Afterwards we went to the cooking school, which was excellently equipped. Under the guidance of the woman, we prepared several traditional dishes. The atmosphere was warm, the teaching methods were clear and structured, and the dishes we prepared were simply delicious. I can recommend this cooking class to anyone who wants to get to know Thai cuisine better. A real highlight of my trip! We would definitely come back!

The culture and respect I have for the people in Koi Samui is A+++. From the time we got picked up taken to the markets to explain the ingredients and the way the locals shop was very informative . Then taken to where we cooked and served a beautiful cool drink to die for. Highly recommend this activity. Value for money and of course our food we made was Devine . Thankyou so much

Amazing cooking lessons - I had an incredible experience at Go Samui Cook! The cooking lesson was not only engaging and fun but also tailored perfectly to our preferences. We prepared a fantastic menu, including Thai green curry, pad thai, chicken with cashews, tom yum soup. The instructor was knowledgeable and patient, explaining each step clearly and sharing helpful tips for authentic Thai flavors. I left with new skills, delicious recipes, and a deeper appreciation for Thai cuisine. Highly recommend for anyone looking to dive into Thai cooking with a personal touch!

Incredible experience - I recently took part in an amazing cooking class where I learned how to prepare four delicious dishes. The atmosphere was warm and generous, thanks to this adorable couple who led the course. They were very attentive throughout the experience and even offered me fruit and a typical Koh samui dish! Their passion for cooking and kindness made this course an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend to all food lovers to live this culinary adventure!

Thai Cooking Class in Koh Samui - This was one of the highlights of our stay in Koh Samui. We started with a walk around a local market where we learnt about all the key ingredients of Thai cooking. After that we moved to Geng and his wife O's kitchen (hence "GO" Samui) where we made four local dishes under the guidance of Geng and his team. If you need any more encouragement then you should know our 15 year old son enjoyed it as much as we did. Enjoying our freshly cooked lunch together was brilliant - highly recommended.

Thai Cooking Class - Great experience and a really well organised activity. Booking was quick and easy with simple instructions. The menu sets change depending on the day of the week. Four dishes have as a good variety of more popular dishes and the local, less well known flavours. Promptly collected from the hotel at the agreed time, first spent 15-30 minutes at the local food market. Geng was happy to answer all the questions. Outdoor kitchen was spacious and well equipped. We were in a group of six. Welcome drink was a nice touch. With Geng and his wife (and mother) nearby, they were plenty of staff available for advice and instructions all the time. The recipes are not complicated but very tasty. Geng and O were able to explain the role of each ingredient in the recipe and advice on the alternatives to use when cooking back home. Each person made four delicious dishes, which have it's plenty to eat. They boxed up any leftovers we wanted to take with us. Water, tea and fruit was offered. Pictures taken and shared with the group. Great experience, highly recommend it.

Super special! - What a special moment! Me and my partner went for the cooking class and we ended up having a private lesson as we were the only one there, lucky us. The instructor Geng and his family are so nice and so funny, I really adored them. We stayed even after the cooking to chat and hang out. They are such nice people and we learned to make the best food ever, so so so tasty! The real Thai food. This was really a highlight of the trip. I am not even a kitchen princess but I really enjoyed all of this, it's very special. Don't hesitate to go, definitely worth it!
