Highlights
กินข้าวแล้วหรือยัง - It’s the Thai way to greet a friend - its literal translation is ‘Have you eaten rice yet?!’ There's no better way to highlight the importance of eating in Thailand in this food obsessed city.
Our tour was carefully curated and will take you on a journey through the backstreets of Bangkok, mopping up a 15+ taster menu in street spots and eateries that have been serving locals for decades. We'll meet at Yaowarat to discover the rich Thai-Chinese culinary marriage that make this district one of the city's most buzzing street food spots. It's not just about the food though. It's about the people behind the plates who have dedicated their lives to cooking on the street.
Itinerary
Chinatown / Yaowarat
1 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeOur feasting tour of 15+ tastings invites guests on a culinary adventure around the backstreets of Bangkok. We're Bangkok's #1 food tour on TripAdvisor. Over 20,000 guests can't be wrong. Before we get started, our tour reflects the local cuisine and the limitations of street food vendors means we unfortunately cannot cater for every dietary restriction. Here's an honest appraisal for the tour so no-one is disappointed: ✘ Unsuitable for strict vegetarians, pescatarians and no-pork diets, due to limited alternatives at some vendors. ✘ Unsuitable for severe allergies, halal & celiac disease, due to risk of traces & cross-contamination. ✔ Suitable for lactose intolerances. If you are feeling adventurous for a foodie journey, read on!Chinatown - Bangkok
2 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeMany are unaware of China's centuries-long influence on Thailand that has permeated much of Thai cuisine. From noodles to stir-fry, it's time to feast on the history of this culinary marriage. In small groups of up to 8 exclusive guests, our passionate foodie guides take you on a journey around the alleyways of Yaowarat, Bangkok's Chinatown. We don't want to spoil the surprises, but 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 poh taek seafood soup, along with a dozen more lip-smackingly good tastings at places you'd struggle to find alone.Chinatown / Yaowarat
1 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeThe tour ends 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 the knowledge you'll need to continue eating street food across Thailand.

Our guide Ant was energetic and informative and made sure the group stayed together and had what everyone needed. I don't think we could have had a better experience. You were stuffed after the last station so the recommendation is really to come hungry! Don't do like me and work out for two hours in the gym straight before, I got quite tired towards the end, but Ant’s energy and constant smile kept you awake. 5/5 stars, well worth the money, many thanks to the caring staff.
Fantastic tour! Johnny (sorry if I misspelled) was amazing giving us history and facts about all Thai cuisine and the places we went to. Highly recommend. Come hungry!
