Bring your appetite and be ready to taste a variety of sweet and savory dishes. Wander through a bustling local market and taste the most delicious treats this local hotspot has to offer. These treats are an absolute must-try while in Bangkok. Let's dig in!

On this private food tour, you’ll visit a bustling hundred-year-old market and an unmissable historic street that is famous amongst locals.

Along the way, you can see hidden alleys and areas where locals are selling a diverse range of items from food, fresh fruit, and vegetables to religious items. You're in for a treat because this market is known for offering the most authentic Thai dishes. Do as the locals do and enjoy all the incredible sights and flavors.

Fall in love with the savory Thai dishes like a pancake called Khanom Bueang Yuan or Bangkok's favorite Curry with rice prepared from famous Khao Raat Gaeng stall. These dishes have everything but humble beginnings! The recipes were passed down from the cook's grandfather who was once a royal cook in the Thai Royal Palace.

As the tasting continues, enjoy coconut milk thai custard at famous stall.

We can try everything from Micheline guide mango sticky rice to coconut ice cream!
