Overview

Join our truly small-group foodie tour limited to just 8 exclusive guests each day. There's no two ways about it, the food in Phuket is sublime. Perhaps that's why is was crowned the 'Thailand City of Gastronomy 2017' by UNESCO. This melting pot of Thai, Chinese, Malay and Burmese food certainly warrants a few hours away from the beach and there's no better way than diving into the hidden street eats in Phuket Old Town. Starting in the cool of the morning, you'll spend 4 hours with your foodie guide delving into the secrets behind the island's flavours. You'll make plenty of stops to mop up Burmese curries with wood-fried naans at a tucked away workers teashop, practise your chopstick skills on a bowl on the best bowl of Hokkien noodles in town and indulge in grilled pork dripping in rich peanut satay sauce among a dozen more mouth-watering Phuketian dishes and snacks. You won't find food like this anywhere else on the island.

Stop At: Old Phuket Town, Thalang Road, Talat Yai, Phuket Town, Phuket 83000 Thailand

This island and old trading post has got some serious food pedigree. Influences from all over Asia and beyond have evolved the dishes here into something truly original. That's why Phuket Town was crowned 'City of Gastronomy 2017' by UNESCO. While it's tempting to be a beach bum, those who drag themselves off the sand discover the secrets behind the island's flavours in small groups of up to 8 exclusive guests. Forget pad Thai and green curry, that's central Thai fare. We don't want to spoil the surprise, but prepare to drool as you mop up morsels with wood-fired naan, slurp bowls of smokey Hokkien noodles, work chopsticks over poh pia rolls smothered in rich tamarind sauce and roll up Phuket-style coconut crepes cooked over fiery coals among many more lip-smackingly good tastings in places you'd struggle to find alone.

Duration: 2 hours

Stop At: Old Phuket Town, Thalang Road, Talat Yai, Phuket Town, Phuket 83000 Thailand

The tour concludes back at the start point, the Phuket Town Central Market, located along Ranong Road in the heart of the city. Enjoy local hospitality and meet new friends along the way. End the tour armed with the knowledge you'll need to continue eating street food across Thailand.

I’m just back from our tour today and want to thank you for a super day. We all thoroughly enjoyed the day. We found the format fabulous as we walked through Phuket Old town wind us through places we would never have found. Nam, our guide was charming, knowledgeable and very gracious. We enjoyed her company and gentle humour immensely. And the food- well easily the best Thai food I’ve eaten. It felt a real privilege to sample authentic local food. Biggest tip - don't overeat at each stop or you will burst!

We spent a delicious few hours with Nam. So many different foods, all amazing. Nam explained the cultural background to each of the foods we tried, introduced us to the chefs and business owners and made sure we had everything we needed. She is a brilliant tour guide, we would never have tried such a variety of foods without her. Highly recommend this tour.

This was a great tour. The food was all delicious, there was lots of it, and Nam was an amazing tour guide. It was interesting and educational as Nam weaved in the history of the town into the food tour. She also did a great job accommodating different diets/food preferences to the best of her ability. Strongly recommend this tour.
