Full description

Enjoy a feasting tour of 16+ tastings that invites guests on a culinary experience around the backstreets of old Bangkok.

Many are unaware of China's centuries-long influence on Thailand that has permeated much of Thai cuisine. From noodles to stir fries, it's time to feast on the history of this culinary marriage.

In small groups of up to 8 exclusive guests, these passionate foodie guides take you on a journey around the alleyways of Yaowarat, Bangkok's Chinatown.

If you don't want to spoil the surprises, prepare to drool over crispy chive dumplings with nam jim jaew sauce, mop up rich satay with charcoal-grilled chicken, work chopsticks over slow-braised pork, and delve into fragrant steamy bowls of shrimp dumplings and tum yum goong seafood soup.

The tour concludes back at the start point, the Shanghai Mansion hotel, located along Yaowarat Road in all its neon glory. Enjoy local hospitality and meet new friends along the way. End the tour armed with the knowledge you'll need to continue eating street food across Thailand.

Includes
  • 4 hours of feasting around the backstreets of Bangkok's Chinatown
  • Maximum of 8 exclusive guests on each tour
  • Bottled water and local soft drinks included
  • Alcoholic drinks excluded
  • Pick-up and drop off at your hotel excluded

Amazing tour. Incredible food, a table waiting for you at each stop, bottled water continuously offered, little to no risk of food poisoning. Chinatown is jam packed and chaotic, I would have had no clue what places to stop at if not for the guide. Plus, they explain the culture and history of each stop. The meeting point had a nice bathroom and air conditioning.

Our guides Kwan and Bang were so fab! They couldn’t do enough. We had such fun with them and we saw and ate so many different things. It’s such a unique experience as you are taken off the beaten track and are able to taste foods which sometimes aren’t accessible for the everyday tourist (due to time restrictions and busyness of China town). I would recommend going on the tour near the start of your stay so you can return to some of the restaurants and stalls :) !!

This was by far the best experience we had in our holidays! The guides were just the best, they knew every single detail and knew how to answer every question, we had fun, we learned the culture, the ingredients, the families histories and the food is out of this world. Every single dish was amazing and unique. I’m still dreaming with the last dish that was the mango sticky rice, by far the best I had in Thailand. Highly recommend ♥️
