Leave the Old City behind and discover the Chiang Mai that exists beyond the tourist trail. For around 3.5 hours, we'll follow the food into local neighbourhoods, family-run legacy restaurants, markets and street stalls, tasting our way through the generations, migrations and traditions that have shaped the city. Expect Northern Thai favourites, smoky grills, rich curries, fresh noodles, market bites and Chinese-influenced dishes, with a few delicious surprises along the way. We'll travel between neighbourhoods by private songthaew truck, explore the city as evening sets in and finish somewhere special beside the Ping River. This is Chiang Mai through food, people and place. Not a checklist of tourist sights, but an invitation to forage a little deeper. Come curious. Come hungry. We'll take care of the rest.
Leave the Old City behind and follow the food into the neighbourhoods where Chiang Mai actually lives, eats and unwinds. Our evening Urban Forage takes you through local markets, family-run food spots, ma and pa shops and street stalls, tasting the flavours and stories shaped by generations of cooks, traders and migrants. We’re proud to be a Tripadvisor Hall of Fame experience and have 2,400+ five-star reviews. A few things worth knowing before you forage with us: ✘ This is not a vegetarian, vegan or meat-free food tour ✘ We cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment at local food stalls ✘ Not suitable for guests who prefer a pork-free diet ✘ Not suitable for guests with severe gluten intolerance due to local sauces and shared preparation ✔ We can accommodate no-beef diets ✔ Lactose-free options are possible at some stops. Come curious, come hungry and leave the Old City behind, there’s a whole other Chiang Mai waiting beyond those walls.
Leave the Old City behind. This is Chiang Mai beyond the walls, where families have cooked for generations, markets still feed the neighbourhoods and migration has woven new flavours into the city's food culture. For around 3.5 hours, we'll forage our way through local streets, family-run food spots, markets and roadside stalls, travelling between neighbourhoods in a Chiang Mai red truck and tasting our way through the city. Along the way, we'll uncover the legacy of Lanna food traditions, Chinese and regional influences that have travelled here over generations. Expect smoky grills, rich curries, silky noodles, fiery dips, crisp market bites and dishes shaped by generations of Chinese influence, plus a few delicious surprises we’d rather let you discover on the night. These aren't places chosen for tourists, they're part of the fabric of the neighbourhoods, and the kind of food stories you'd be unlikely to discover on your own. Come curious. Follow the food. See where it takes you.
Our evening winds its way towards the Ping River, where the food trail takes one final turn. After hours of wandering, tasting and uncovering the stories of Chiang Mai's neighbourhoods, we'll settle into a local riverside drinking house, the perfect place to slow down, raise a glass and let the evening unfold. We won't give away too much about the final stop... let's just say the river, a local drink and good company are waiting.
