Mai (Purichat) is an amazing guide. It was a big pleasure to spend with her this 3 hours walking around Chiang Mai by night. She was very kind and she gave a lot of explanations about story in Thailand. I recommend her very much!Amazing guide for Chiang Mai

We had a lovely food tour with Purichat! She was very friendly and she helped us discover some Thai food we have not previously had in the US. We also discovered other areas of town we had not been too. We definitely recommend her! Ann & BlairChiang Mai food tour

We had such a great time. Purichat was nice and very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. So great to try so many different northern dishes and learn about the origins of the food. The market experience was also very good and we got to learn about spices and ingredients typical for the area. Very accommodating since one of us was vegetarian. Thank you!Great experience!

We did the private Night Market and Street Food tour with Purichat during our visit to Chiang Mai and it was a truly fascinating introduction to Northern Thai food! We had a larger group of seven people with varying degrees of adventurousness when it came to food and Purichat did a great job balancing all of the food selections taking us to taste more familiar dishes like Pad Thai as well as new dishes like Khanom chin nam ngiao ( a noodle soup made from fermented bean paste and chicken blood). We also had requests from a couple people in the group to do some shopping which she made sure to include in the tour, taking us to a local market to pick up some things and also sample a few Thai snacks. If you have a free evening in Chiang Mai I would highly recommend this tour with Purichat!Great Intro to Chiang Mai!
