Free walking tours in Chiang Mai

The tour was really good with Pailin ! We learned a lot of things about Chiang Mai and Thai culture in general. We also tasted some fruits (for free). The tour is more than worth it ! Thank you Pailin

Really insightful tour with some great information shared which helped with understanding of history, religion and culture! Very hot day though which didn’t help with enjoyment as probably a few more breaks were required due to the heat.

It is an interesting walk where you learn a lot about Buddhist culture by visiting two very beautiful temples. The stop at the Women’s Correctional Centre is a particular highlight.

Very informative walking tour of Chiang Mai with Pailin, where we covered a lot in 3 or so hours! Would recommend for anyone looking to learn about the city and the Buddhist temples especially :)

San is an amazing guide! He shared many details and facts that I found very interesting. Thank you San!

This was a brilliant evening which included a thorough tour of three different types of market. We tried different foods with TJ giving us lots information about different aspects of Thai life and culture as well as the benefit of his extensive knowledge of food and cooking. He introduced and encouraged us to try lots of different types and styles of food which we probably wouldn’t have found or thought to taste. He answered all of our questions and nothing seemed to be too much trouble for him. Excellent - don’t hesitate to book this tour!

We really enjoyed our tour and found it extremely informative! It was nice to learn so much about the history.

Great tour! Really interesting and professional

Pailin is a nice person and a professional guide. Recommended!

We totally recommend this tour. It’s a great way to know the local food and the places to eat some of the best versions. It wasn’t only about the food, we also visited a food market an TJ explained everything we asked about.

Nice tour. Felt like a special time (water festival) to be in CM. Guide bought several foods from vendors to let us try.

Excelente tour

The guru was amazing. Lots of informative information and a great route. Pailin was very friendly and provided us with some nice snacks on the journey too.

This was one of the BEST tours I have taken. Jakkrit was awesome. He told us so many things about Chiang Mai, about the people and the food. He made us feel like we were all friends dining together. He had us try amazing dishes. And the way he did it we all shared and no one walked away super stuffed. We loved that he took us to the vegetable sellers market. It was incredible to see and learn. Our last stop was the Chinatown market. We loved seeing all three very different places. Jakkrit is a wonderful host and it was a truly memorable way to spend the night in Chiang Mai.

We had a fantastic bike tour in Chiang Mai with our guide San. He shared fascinating insights at every stop, from ancient temples to lively markets. Having spent time as a monk, San explained Buddhism clearly and was a great storyteller. We also felt extremely safe and well-guided throughout the ride—highly recommended!

Unos conocimientos muy amplios tanto históricos como contemporáneos sobre la vida de los templos, de la ciudad y del pais.. Siempre dispuesta y amigable. Lo recomiendo.

Excellent tour, highly recommended if you want to experience local street food and local market culture. Visited 3 markets over 3-3.5hrs with JT who is an excellent guide. Very friendly, thoughtful and knowledgeable. Lots of good gastronomic knowledge about the history, ingredients and preparation of each dish which he shared in fluent English. I only wish we'd done the tour when we arrived so that I could go back to some of the markets over the next couple of days.

Knowledgable guide with food service experience so could talk taste combinations, ingredients and sources from first hand experience. Loved that we shared tastes of different foods.

Good information about historical temples and advice about other activities

Great tour, interesting, entertaining, all the good ingrédients !

We had a brilliant time on this food tour, and our guide TJ was excellent. It's great to have a free tour where you can choose how much food to buy and eat, especially if (like us) you have dietary preferences. The night markets in Chiang Mai have great atmosphere, incredible food, and are very cheap! If you do this tour, make sure to leave a good tip because what you get for the price of the food is exceptional!

Absolutely loved this tour! Gun was so informative and great to talk to. He got us small snacks at some of the markets and street stalls along the way which really made the tour go above and beyond. He also gave a lot of great recommendations that we ended up going back to on later days. We loved it!

We spent a nice morning walking around Chiang Mai's Old Town with Pailin. She is very sweet and was happy to share information about Thailand and many interesting historical and cultural facts. She also gave us plenty of suggestions. :)

Great tour! Pailin was king enough to share her culture with us and we really enjoyed it Had the opportunity to learn a lot about buddishm

A fun and engaging tour!
