The variety of our food was DELICIOUS, it was a small group so very manageable and fun to walk around!
Fabulous tour - great guide
Lots of delicious food plus fascinating back stories and culinary tips
Really entertaining
Great thing to do in Bangkok! So many different tasty bites, and you will learn about Thai cooking. A carefully chosen sequence of food stops with great variety.
Adored this tour. Excellent host, incredible stops, outstanding food, one of the highlights of my entire trip. Recommended to a friend later, she went and loved it too!
The experience was great and we tasted dishes we wouldn’t have tried. The host was fantastic and very friendly.
Excellent food choices, and the hosts were both really nice. Highly recommended. I would do it again.
Excellent guides and too much food to eat it all Highly recommended doing this tour ,was a wonderful selection of Thai cuisine.
What a wonderful time we had! I was a little stuck trying to figure out what I wanted to do, and how to go about approaching Chinatown, and this little tour here was godsent!
Entirely on foot, you get eat and see the best of Yaorawat, a bustling cracker of a Chinatown. Many, many thanks to our extremely educated guides for this!
Great food, great vibe, great way to explore the area and learn what's delicious. Thanks, Rainbow, for an amazing experience in Bangkok.
This tour was one of the highlights of the entire trip. It is an absolute must do when in Bangkok. Annie our guide was amazing, super kind, funny and knowledgeable. The tour takes you throughout Chinatown and truly gives you a taste of all the best things. I will be dreaming about this food for months to come. As all foodies who travel the world and have done many food tours, this is by far the best. Come hungry!
Amazing good, knowledgable guide. We visited places we certainly wouldn’t have found on our own and tasted some unbelievable food.
We went to China Town on our own and while we wanted to try the food we didn’t know what to eat and how safe it was. We therefore booked on this tour. It was absolutely fantastic!!!Rainbow and Millet were superb tour guides. We were in a small group and we went to places that we would never have found and tried amazing food. It was an absolute highlight of our visit to Bangkok and we would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending! Brilliant food, company and tour guides who were superbly knowledgeable with incredible food!
Fantastic food tour of Bangkok's Chinatown! So many delicious foods to taste and excellent guide. Highly recommend.
One of my best food experience (I did a lot in different countries)
The guide is also part of the success with stories and his happiness
Amazing experience. Great food, excellent tour guide, and a great opportunity to meet people and experience delicious street food. We had two tour guides. Give us a We had two tour guides give us an extensive tour of Bangkok Chinatown district. We visited about seven different establishments and tasted 16 different types of food. I got so full so it’s best to pace yourself. I also met some great people on the tour from all over the world. All in all, this experience is well worth the price, delicious and lots of fun.
We did this backstreet food tour the evening we arrived in Bangkok. Despite our jet lag, fatigue and pouring rain, it was the best experience to kick off our visit to Thailand. We had 3 kids (ages 8-12) in tow and everyone enjoyed it immensely! Our guides Tao and Mikey made it such a fun experience with lots of laughs! My only advice is go very hungry! We tried more than 16 street foods and not just one or 2 bites! There is no way we would have found the best places (including Michelin star spots) without our guides! They made sure we had everything we needed including an endless amount of bottled water. They seemed ready to accommodate any allergies or intolerances (as we noted from others in the group's needs) as well as making sure our kids had options of everything "mai phet" with just a little spice. The pace was great and even in the rain this was an unforgettable night! Don't hesitate...book now!
This food tour is amazing. More than 15 tastings. We were taken to many hidden gem spots, ate delicious foods, Tak the guide was excellent and his helper (ninja) who was making sure all our meals and restaurant visits are running smoothly was great as well.
It was a fantastic tour, very insightful on the history and the cuisine. So much variations and every single one was delicious. Make sure to come with an empty stomach.
Excellent way to experience the best of Bangkok street food. Guide was helpful and friendly and made the whole tour a delight.
This was wonderful - the food was excellent and the guides were so thoughtful, engaging, and informative! I would recommend this to anyone visiting Bangkok
So much food, so little stomach space! Fantastic tour of Chinatown with the chance to taste lots of foods that I wouldn’t have experienced otherwise. Thanks to Mr Johnny and Mr Pi for making the evening so entertaining and informative.
Amazing tour! So many different tastings and everything was phenomenal! Tour guide was very knowledgeable!
This food tour was amazing!!!!
Was great to do it with other travellers which made it a very enjoyable evening.
Very well organised and planned throughout.
Some food an absolutely loved, some I did t but that’s the whole point of these tours. Experience good you have never tried.
Would absolutely recommend this tour.
What a great experience. We had some amazing street food in Chinatown and learnt all about out the food history of the area.
Also went with kids and nothing was too spicy.
Loved the experience, from the guides to the food to the places they took us. Two thumbs up to this experience!
Well organised. Brilliant variety of dishes. Would do this again next time I visit. You can expect more than one dish at some places.
Muay and Ploy (not sure on the spelling) where absolutely fantastic guides and all the food we had was incredible. Not even the terrible weather could stop us having the best time on this tour!
Ton of fun, Johnny our guide was fun, very knowledgeable, and his English was great. Food was all very good and we got to walk through cool parts of town I definitely wouldn’t have on my own.
Awesome awesomeness
Get ready to have your balls absolutely blasted off with this elite food tour holy moly
So much food! There’s a reason their slogan is “eat, eat. Repeat”. There’s a boatload of food. I recommend one or two bites until you’re about halfway through.
Great food, knowledgeable tour guide (Ant knew everything and was quick to answer any questions we had! She was amazing). A couple of us (including me) wanted to try the fried bugs we saw at a random street corner and Ant made that happen. She was phenomenal and made the whole experience even that much more enjoyable.
