Experience Food tours in the best of
Chiang Mai with Withlocals

"Dear Sawitchaya, We already loved Chiang Mai before our tour with you, but now we love it even more. You opened the door to a very special side of Chiang Mai for us, and for that we would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts. It was so much more than just a culinary adventure — it was a journey through the incredible variety of flavours and tastes of a truly special country. We would have loved to spend even more time wandering through the local markets with you, listening to your stories and explanations, and discovering one flavour sensation after another. Our time with you was incredibly enjoyable, varied and informative — and, unfortunately, far too short! Thank you so much for your time. We enjoyed every moment of it in every possible way, and we are still feeling wonderfully full! All right, just one last Miang Kham…😉 With heartfelt thanks, Juerg & Karin "

"Sawitchaya (May) took our family on an absolutely fantastic food tour! We tried a huge range of local dishes and May’s knowledge and passion are so inspiring. My kids loved it too. It was a rainy day and May drove us all around the city as part of the tour, which was great too. Don’t hesitate to book May for this incredible experience of Chiang Mai. "

"May was great and super knowledgeable about traditional Thai cuisine. We tried lots of different types of northern Thai dishes that we otherwise wouldn’t have known about. Then we ended the day at the locals market where we sampled different fruits, desserts, and meats. It was a really fun afternoon. I highly recommend!"

"May was such a kind and thoughtful tour guide for our street food tour. We packed so much in to the three hours, but it was well paced and apart from all the delicous food we ate, we also visited a temple and participated in some cultural activities. May's husband drove us around and even dropped us back at our hotel at the end of the tour. We visited May's favourite restaurant that she has been visiting since a girl, and it was a delicious, and very local experience. She was great with our two kids and we learnt so much about Chiang Mai! If you are looking to do a street food tour in Chiang Mai, don't hesitate to book May - she is fabulous! "

"We had an amazing experience with Kamutnadda, also known as Eddie. He thoughtfully organized a fantastic food market tour for us. We enjoyed trying many new and delicious dishes, and he also gave us great restaurant recommendations for our time in Chiang Mai. We truly had a wonderful time and highly recommend his tour to everyone! "

"Ae took us to great non touristy food spots. Yummy. Whole family kids loved all the food. Thanks Ae!! Book her if you want taste of good chiang mai food "

"Just a brilliant few hours eating and learning some historical facts with May. Picked us up on time and we moved through the narrow streets to our first stop of Khao soi noodles..and the food just got better. May was flexible to our tastes (no seafood) and we stopped at markets and small local restaurants. It was awesome and May was the perfect host. Highly recommend this tour and this guide. Note-You eat heaps so bring your appetite."

"May is the best guide. She will take you to places you would not know about and can teach you about all of the food in Thailand. She knows all of the ingredients at the market and can talk about the cooking. She is the best!"

"We had a fantastic night with Naphat tasting the local food around Chiang Mai food markets. She even gave us great insight on Thai culture and the history of Chiang Mai. She answered all our general questions about Thailand. The food was better than any of the restaurants we had in Chiang Mai. Had very original Thai flavor. So flavorful and delicious! Trust her in the food she brings to you and you won’t be disappointed! Thank you so much!!"

"The private food-tour with Sawitchaya in Chiang Mai exceeded my expectations by far. She picked the best local spots with authentic recipes, shared countless insights only a chef knows, was a wonderful host and such a great person. If you really wanna dive deep into the culinary scene of Chiang Mai like a local, this is your tour. Not just an activity, a true experience. 10/10"
