The Tastiest Private Food Tours of Chiang Mai

She was full of knowledge, kind, flexible, thoughtful, and funny. She is great at her job and loves people and engaging them. She is passionate about food and her culture and is proud to share what she knows. She was eager to answer all of our questions and gave us great tips and insight into the rest of our two week thailand trip. She even gave us Thai fans and some local fruit and snacks for our upcoming road trip through Thailand.

We loved our tour with Ae. She took us around to all of the off the beaten path places where the locals eat (which is exactly what we asked for). We got to try a lot of different foods that we would never have tried on our own, and she gave us some great background on the history of Chiang Mai in the process. We loved trying so.many things (it was really fun to go through the market and have her show us how to pick out and eat some different fruits than we get at home...) We had a great evening, and would definitely recommend a tour with Ae to give you a thorough orientation of the Chiang Mai Street food scene. A definite highlight!

We had the pleasure of a memorable 3 hours with our guide Naphat. During this tour we would visit several venues where we would taste 5 (or more) dishes. Naphat informed us that we would be tasting Chiang Mai's signature street food and that all the vendors had been vetted for their quality. We began with a tasting of arguably Chiang Mai's famous street food Khao Soi Gai. We also purchased some Khao Kha Moo and sat down to eat. They were both delicious and perfectly represented the amazing complex flavours in Thai cuisine. I have to say that the Khao Kha Moo was my favourite with its delectable gooey gelatinous pork melting in our mouths. Next we visited a local food market where we purchased some Sai Oua (Pork Sausage) and Chiang Mai's street food version of KFC. We stood on a bridge looking over Chiang Mai's night time lights twinkling over the river while we ate our delicious food with some sticky rice. Naphat has a infectious charismatic personality and we found ourselves deep in philosophical conversation between mouthfuls of delectable Thai street food. We thoroughly recommend Naphat. You will love her company and the food that she presents.

We had an amazing experience with Purichat. She was an amazing tour guide and we got to experience a side of Chiang Mai that we would not have otherwise experienced. We got to taste delicious foods and fruits from street vendors. She also gave us some history for some of the spots we visited. I would highly recommend Purichat as a tour guide.
