Why we recommend it
Bangkok Food Tours has been leading tasting tours of the city since 2011, with guides taking groups to local stalls, restaurants and markets. Routes cover several distinct neighbourhoods, including the Historic Bangrak Food Tasting and Culture Tour, an evening Yaowarat Street Food Tour in Chinatown and a longer Thonburi Food and Canals Adventure.
There is a choice of formats, from join-in group departures on set days to private tours, as well as tuk-tuk evenings, a vegetarian tour, a halal foodie trail and a floating markets trip outside the city. Check the schedule for each tour, as join-in dates vary by day of the week. Mention dietary requirements when booking, and come hungry: most tours last three to five hours.
