Thai Cooking Class

Enjoy authentic Thai food with this tour, where you'll learn to make traditional recipes, and visit a local market!

Activity Details

Having picked you up at your hotel at the indicated time, we'll begin our tour with a traditional Chiang Mai market visit. We'll tour its different stalls and buy the fresh produce that will later become our tasty Thai dishes.

From here, we'll head to Grandma's Cooking School, where we'll be welcomed with a cocktail and an aperitif. Then, our Thai cooking class will get underway.

With the class over, we'll try all the different dishes that we've made, confirming that, of course, they're totally delicious! And so you don't forget all you've learned, you'll get a Thai cookbook so you can continue to practice at home.

Having eaten, we'll take you back to your hotel in Chiang Mai.
