Amazing food and history tour

PlantCityFL, Mar 2025

We had an absolutely amazing food/history tour with PT. Her knowledge of the food culture as well as the history of Thailand and Chiang Mai was very impressive. We went with another couple and it was just us 4 which was really great because we had some flexibility on our stops and food choices. PT took us to restaurants and markets that locals eat at and ordered us some local dishes. We tried so many fruits we never see in the states. She also gave us recommendations for dinner and shopping hints. As much fun and informative the tour was the crown jewel was learning about how it all started and how the owner is instrumental in improving so many lives (can’t give away specifics, take the tour and hear for yourself). Highly recommend. Thank you PT for sharing your time and life with us.

Even if you did a food tour in Bangkok, take this food tour too!

Fantastic food tour! Even though we did a food tour in Bangkok, we decided to do one in Chian Mai as well. That was a good decision because the food in northern Thailand is different from Bangkok. Every dish we had was new to us with different flavors.

Fantastic guide and experience

Passport62496379574, Feb 2025

Just completed this evening tour with PT definitely a 5star experience. We travelled to a number of different places including local markets, michelin restaurant and a night market and tried a huge number of fruits, drinks, desserts and northern Thai dishes. PT was considerate, spoke exceptional English and was very knowledgeable on local history and gave us a number of recommendations for other activities. We couldn't recommend this tour more highly.

What a wonderful way to...

What a wonderful way to see Chiang Mai and gain an appreciation for the culinary and cultural differences. Our guide was knowledgeable and so friendly. We really appreciated the care she provided us and being able to sample the sights and sounds if the different markets.
