What are people saying about Chiang Mai

Michael_R, Mar 2026

Amazing Host/Experience

We had an amazing experience taking a cooking class in Chiang Mai, and our host, Sky, made it truly special. She was incredibly funny, friendly, and made everyone feel comfortable right away. Her energy kept the class fun and engaging from start to finish. Sky is also very knowledgeable and did a great job explaining each step in a way that was easy to follow, even for beginners. She was always happy to answer questions and share helpful tips along the way. The best part, of course, was the food—we were able to create some absolutely delicious dishes that we’re excited to try making again at home! If you’re in Chiang Mai and thinking about doing a cooking class, we highly recommend this experience—especially if you get Sky as your host. It was one of the highlights of our trip! Thank you, Sky!

Cooking Evening Class Chiang Mai Visit Organic Garden and Market

Hazel_I, Mar 2026

I absolutely loved the...

I absolutely loved the cooking class. They even have their own garden where they grow fresh herbs, and a visit to the local market was included, which made the whole experience feel really authentic. I’d recommend booking the transfers if you’re staying within the Chiang Mai district, it makes everything much easier. The female team were incredibly hospitable, and although our group was quite small and intimate, it actually made the experience even more enjoyable. You can attend as part of a group or solo like I did (I’m the Black woman in the picture), and it was easy to connect with others. I met a lovely French family who were heading straight to the airport afterwards. Overall, I’d definitely recommend this for an authentic Thai experience. The portion sizes were generous; I couldn’t finish everything but was able to take the rest away. Just a small note: they do have two dogs on-site, but they’re put away during the cooking session in case anyone is uncomfortable around dogs.

Half Day Evening Cooking Class with Market Tour in Chiang Mai

Jonathan_W, Feb 2026

I'm a Thai Chef now!

Imagine being whisked away on a culinary chariot—on time, mind you—to a kingdom of flavors! The queens of this realm? Noodle and Sky, aptly named, who first guided us through a vibrant market of ingredients that practically sang to be cooked. Back at the school, we were handed the keys to the culinary kingdom: five dishes—appetizers, soup, main, dessert—like being the chef of your own feast. Prep was minimal but hands-on enough to feel like Thai cuisine sorcerers! The meal? A five-course triumph! Our group of six was like a mini foodie family, and the whole experience was smooth as coconut milk. 10/10—I’d wield a wok with them again!

Best seller!! Amazing Night tour, Doi Suthep + Wat umong - Top Must visit!

Matthew_A, Jan 2026

Incredible temples, driver was friendly. The drive up to Doi Suthep was very curvy so maybe bring some meds if needed. The view from the temple was incredible, especially seeing the city at night. Everyone staying in Chiang Mai should experience this. 10/10!

Sunset Thai Cooking with Grandma - Farm & Evening Feast

Patricia_D, Jan 2026

Nice Evening Experience

Did the evening experience and it was a nice break away from the city. Loved the farm to table approach and cooking our favorite dishes as well as provided the recipes for later use. Definitely built confidence and took away the perceived complexity of making the dishes we love so much and has us excited to replicate on our own in our home country!

Tomyumthai Cooking Class in Chiang Mai

upasna_g, Dec 2025

Great experience and food!

Do not eat before coming; you will cook one course at a time and then eat it after it’s made rather than cooking all the courses and then eating as one big meal also you will be taking your shoes off to enter the home and kitchen so be prepared for that with socks etc The food and experience were great! Will def make the food when I return!

Excellent food tour

My tour was with Sawitchaya and was a fantastic guide. I am vegetarian and she excellently choose dishes and restaurants that catered to that. She is very knowledgeable about Chiang Mai and was able to give historical and culinary context to our meals. Would highly recommend this tour.
