The 15 Best Street Food Tours in Chiang Mai

22 tours  ·  from $31 a head

Northern Thai food is not the Thai food most people arrive expecting, and the good stalls have no English. The 15 below walk Chang Phuak, the Sunday market and the lanes off Nimman, priced, timed and clear about exactly how hungry to turn up.

“This tour was amazing! The food was great and we were stuffed by the end! But what I really enjoyed was the historical and cultural explanation behind the dishes. Moui was our guide and she was amazing! She had so many things in her bag - spice blends for us to smell, dried fermented soy bean paste, etc. She was so knowledgeable about the foods, the restaurants and their owners, and the significance of the items we ate. We thought we’d tried a lot of foods in Chiang Mai, but we had barely scratched the surface before this tour! If you’re on the fence about whether or not this tour…”

“We meet Pondtip at the Warorot market. Very clear direction and communication from the tour operator. Podtip is very kind and friendly, with an infectious smile. We were just 2 people in the group so it felt relaxed and private. About about 4 destinations- Warorot market food tasting, then we went to a traditional northern style Thai restaurant, evening market for desert, temple walk about, tuktuk city sightseeing. Chiang Mai Foodie Tours is the best!! We had many dishes and went to many places that I don’t recall. It was amazing. Definitely highly recommend and I will be doing this again. This tour exceeded my expectations!!”

Taste Northern Thai food, see Chiang Mai temples by night, cross the Ping River, and finish with a riverside drink on this guided evening tour.

“Booked this private tour for my first evening in Chiang Mai as I wanted a more personal experience and a deeper interaction with my guide—and I couldn’t be happier with the decision. My guide Bim is an absolute angel. She gave me such a wonderful first impression of Chiang Mai as she made me try incredible street food and showed me around Wat Chedi Luang during the opening night of the Inthakin Festival. We went to China Town, crossed a beautiful bridge, and had a sensational dinner by the river. A private tour can often feel like an investment, but this one is a no-brainer. Thanks to Bim, our driver…”
