Get a taste of Thai Food tours

Thai food has an incomparable reputation around the world, but there’s much more to this much-loved cuisine than pad thai and green curry. So be sure to include a Culinary tour on your Thailand adventure to sample some of the country’s tastiest and most traditional dishes! Expect slurping noodles alongside locals at Chiang Mai’s sprawling night bazaar or join a street food tour in Bangkok.

Eating, shopping, and haggling at markets are an integral part of Thai culture. Visit the likes of Maeklong Railway Market and Tha Kha Floating Market for an authentic dining experience, or try your hand at whipping up everything from massaman curry to mango sticky rice with a Thai cooking class.

  • Carol on her Food tour of Italy

    “The mix of cultural, foodie, and authentic Italian lifestyle was spot on! We fitted in olive picking, truffle hunting, cheese making, pizza making, pasta making, and not once did it feel rushed; and everything just felt easygoing and seamless. Would we go back? In a heartbeat!”

  • Desiree on her Food tour of Mexico

    “We chose this foodie tour because we wanted to learn more about the food and enjoy the tastes of Mexico. It included two cooking classes which were very informative and fun to be a part of, but tasting what we made was even better! We also went to lots of local restaurants to taste different types of foods from different areas of Mexico. My daughter and I had the best trip ever and it was the best present we could give her to learn about some of her heritage.”

  • Minah on her Food tour of Vietnam

    “We are two old ladies who took a foodie trip in Vietnam. The trip was great, as well as the Vietnamese cuisine we ate. Most of all we loved Hoi An and Halong Bay. Hoi An is just a magical place, I really wish we could stay there forever! The street food tour in Hoi An was the best - the meal was just fantastic and our guide was very professional. Wish we could spend more time here, we didn't want to leave!”
