About this tour
Explore Chiang Mai's nocturnal food culture from the seat of a motorbike, sampling regional specialities across 4.5 hours. Local guides navigate you through back streets and night markets to hole-in-the-wall vendors and established spots, stopping to eat genuine Chiang Mai dishes—some rarely found elsewhere. You'll taste your way through the city's culinary identity rather than just visit landmarks.
Highlights
- Regional Chiang Mai dishes unavailable in most restaurants
- Night riding through quiet streets and bustling markets
- English-speaking drivers who know vendor owners personally
- All food, drinks and weather gear included
- Stop-and-eat format, not rushed commentary tour
What to expect
You'll ride as a passenger behind an experienced driver, stopping every 15–20 minutes at different food stalls and small eateries. Each stop involves getting off, eating a dish or two, and chatting with vendors or guides about what you're tasting. Expect narrow sois, uneven footpaths, and busy night markets. The pace is relaxed—this isn't sightseeing; it's eating. Bring appetite and an open mind about unfamiliar ingredients. Weather can change quickly, so jackets are provided.
Good to know
Motorbike riding at night requires comfort on two wheels. Not suitable for serious back or heart conditions. Infants must sit on an adult's lap during rides. Public transport nearby if you'd rather skip the bike. Tipping is optional but appreciated.
