So much food! - Great food tour, was able to cater to the fact we cannot handle too much spice, took us everywhere in local transportation pointing out good places we could return to on our own, depending on what we like to eat. So much food and ended the night with a beer at a lovely bar. Highly recommend so very full You won’t need lunch before, just a small snack. Very friendly and chatty we tried many new foods. Everything was covered in the price which was great.

Tasty Thai Cooking - Vanee was wonderful. A timely pick up from our hotel and stopping at a local market. The 4 course menu was well chosen. It was very well organized. It was a fun experience learning, chopping, cooking and eating! The food was delicious and we got a cookbook with the recipes we made and other recipes. A great and useful memento!

A must do cooking class! - This was honestly one of our favourite experiences ever! We were taken to a market to see where locals grab their ingredients and were able to select the dishes we wanted to make! Once we arrived at the school we were greeted so warmly by Vannee who was just a joy to be around. Her patience was greatly appreciated and she taught us so much all whilst entertaining us! The time flew by and we were left with some amazing food. Vannee (and her lovely family) has made this such an authentic and wonderful experience and we would highly recommend this!

Fantastic food tour with a little history - We were stuck with an early arrival and the hotel room not available until later so we decided to take a food tour. It was amazing! We went with May/Purichat and fortunately we arrived hungry. We tasted a variety of really good food and went in her car to the market to taste some more. She got the perfect blend of delicious food and interesting history. May is a delightful friendly guide who checked our interests and tailored the tour to us. I 100% recommend this tour but definitely come hungry!

Amazing guide! - May was the most fantastic guide, her engagement, charisma and smile really made for a fantastic evening for our family. She took us to the most wonderful places, really off the beaten track which we would never have found ourselves and we ate some of the tastiest dishes we had during our visit in Thailand. Highly recommend and delighted we got the opportunity to do this tour with May :)

AMAZING food tour with a personable local! - Sawitchaya (May) is gregarious, funny, personable and full of energy and we felt so lucky to have her as our tour guide! She’s from Chiang Mai and you can tell she’s excited to share her communities gems and hidden treats with you. From the moment we met her, she put our group at ease with her kind and warm demeanor. She explained all the dishes we tried and was patient in making sure all our questions got answered since we were a curious group. Great english speaker btw! Not only that, she stopped to ask if we wanted to try anything exotic or interesting that we saw as we walked thru the local market and she sampled it with us! It felt like we hit WAY more than just the 10 food items and had such a wonderful and memorable experience with May. We highly recommend her and her tour and have no doubt it will be one of the highlights of your trip! ขอบคุณ May!

A fun, educational and delicious food experience! - We spent 3 hours with Mae (Purichat). Initially I thought we’d be walking the whole time, but thankfully she drives a nice air conditioned vehicle. We’ve always liked Thai Food but this was a next level experience. She took us to small local eateries and we sampled just the most amazing food at each stop. Her personality is very pleasant and her English was excellent. One of the highlights was going to a very large local “Farmers Market” l called “Tanin Market”. She bought many unusual, interesting and delicious items and then prepared a wonderful lunch to end the day.

Naphats Foods - Naphat was wonderful! She was so well rounded, well known and very cultured. We now have the confidence to order amazing food anywhere we go in Thailand. I’m so glad we did this tour and I would highly recommend Naphat to anyone looking for a truly authentic Thai experience.
