Bangkok is the perfect city of contrasts. Street food stalls outside Michelin restaurants, stilted homes alongside flashy high rises, and a melting pot of culinary influences that have evolved through the ages. Yet most people come to Thailand and eat the same thing they get at home: Pad Thai and Green Curry. But there’s so much more to offer.
On this tour, you’ll taste your way through time and try Thailand’s regional cuisine that makes up Thailand’s culinary identity. From Chinese immigrants to Northern Thai ethnic groups, our goal is to introduce dishes that are new to you, at places you’d never think to visit. Hop in our tuk-tuks and explore traditional neighborhoods and local markets, plus a splash of today’s hipster scene as well.
This tour is not recommended for vegetarians, vegans, or gluten-free individuals. We will do our best to accommodate requests, but substitutions will be very limited. Please let us know before your tour date as same-day requests cannot be guaranteed.
