Northern Flavours Chiang Mai Food Tour

Get your taste buds ready because there is nothing quite like Northern Thai cuisine. We limit our daily small-group street food tour to only 8 exclusive guests. We’ll bounce between 5-6 different spots using our own private songthaew red truck, gorging on 15+ different tastings from street food joints to local eateries. No other food tour has this many variety of tastings as us! We’ll delve into the history and food cultures of the North of the country. Try braised pork in five spices at a vendor once visited by Anthony Bourdain, visiting my favourite local spots, and we'll explore one of the best food markets in the city. You simply can’t visit Northern Thailand without trying the herby larb, sticky gaeng hang lay curry and legendary lemongrass sai oua sausage. Nor can you skip the tangy tea leaf salads, brought in during the two centuries of Burmese rule. Sold out? Ask us about our lunchtime 'Lanna Kingdom' tour also! **Special Diets: this tour is not suitable for vegetarians and pescatarians (sorry!), as you'll have to miss several dishes, with few alternatives available.
