Meet your guide in the evening at a central location in Bangkok, and then hop into a tuk-tuk an iconic form of local transportation in Thailand and travel a few minutes to Chinatown to begin your walking tour. Please note, depending on availability, you may ride in a local bus instead of the tuk-tuk.
Follow your guide along from sleepy Talad Noi with its charming local life via backroad alleys and , a major boulevard that transforms at night into a sea of street stalls forming a large, informal food bazaar. In addition to the excellent Street food, Chinatown is also home to fine Chinese restaurants. Visit 8-10 different food spots where you'll try a variety of dishes and learn about the inspiration and ingredients behind each. Sample spicy snacks, typical dinner items and sweet desserts, and chat with other food lovers that you encounter.
As you walk along both crowded streets and quiet lanes, your guide points out locations from various film sets, temples hidden down narrow alleyways and other only-in-Thailand sights. Discover places that you might never find on your own, and ask your guide any questions you have about the things you come across.
Expect to walk less than 2.5 miles (4 km) at a leisurely pace with plenty of stops for photo ops and food. Alcoholic drinks and other beverages are not included but can be purchased at most locations. At the end of the tour, you can remain in Chinatown or continue into the night, on your own.

Very interesting to her. But the best part of this experience was trying all the street food. Our guide was very knowledgeable and informative and she knew exactly which street food vendors to take us to so there was no need to worry about eating the street food.

This tour was the worst. tour. we have ever been on anywhere around the world, it was badly organised and for the first hour we took local bus and walked through back streets to see both Chinese and Thai temples from the out side as they were all closed. We spent 1.5 hours doing this before we got a small taste of food then another 30 minutes before the next food experience, by this time we were sick of this and left the tour and caught a taxi back to our hotel. This was NOT a food tour and whilst there were photos of tuk Turks we didn't use these. Never will I book a Viator tour after this terrible experience.

A really good tour and guide of the area which captures the essence of the place. Only the food seemed more Thai than Chinese to me and it could certainly have been more exotic.

This tour was not really what I was expecting. Our guide was rather friendly and accommodating. But the tour is for young people. You take a tuk tuk from the hotel/guest house and then it's a 3.5hr walk from there.

We had a great time on this tour. The trip lasted late into the night. The information was great and our guid was this little Asian lady that was a pistol. She made the night so fun. There was so much food so do not eat before going. All the places we stopped to eat were safe and the food was very tasty. If your looking for a fun time and walking around meeting new people take this tour.

We done this trip prior to the Bangkok food tour. I can't remember our guide's name but she was tiny and softly spoken which made it hard to hear some of the things she was saying! However this did not spoil the experience of the tour. Brilliant! you see how and where the Chinese people live and try there food in there own community as well as the streets of Chinatown. Like the Bangkok tour you need to keep an open mind and just experience everything! As with the other tour we were both fine that night and the next day!
A must tour to see how another culture lives and eat.
