Bangkok: Night Food Tour by Tuk Tuk with Chinatown & Flower MarketYou’ll ride through Bangkok’s wildest flavors in a tuk tuk—sampling street food at busy night markets, wandering through Pak Klong Talad’s flowers after dark, pausing at glowing temples, and diving into Chinatown’s chaos before ending with rooftop views. Expect laughter with your guide, new tastes at every turn, and memories that linger longer than any meal.
Thai Cooking Class in Krabi: Learn to Cook Real Thai FoodA 5-hour hands-on cooking class in Krabi where you learn to prepare authentic Thai dishes in a traditional home kitchen with a Thai chef, using fresh ingredients and individual instruction. You choose your menu and departure time when you book, and the class is limited to 10 people. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included, along with lunch or dinner depending on which class you choose.Is it for me?Book the morning or midday class if you have a free afternoon in Krabi and want to spend it learning a skill instead of watching a demonstration—you cook the whole meal yourself and eat it, not watch someone else cook. The evening class works if you prefer to cook and dine later in the day.
Koh Samui Jeep Tour: Waterfalls, Jungle & Island LandmarksThis six-hour 4x4 jeep tour visits Koh Samui's most famous landmarks—Na Muang Waterfall, Secret Buddha Garden, Wat Khunaram and Grandmother & Grandfather Rocks—with hotel pickup, lunch, water and a guide in English or Thai. The route includes mountain off-road driving with viewpoints and time to swim in the waterfall; the jeep handles the bumpy terrain so you don't have to arrange transport or plan the stops.Is it for me?Book this if you want to cover Koh Samui's main sights in one afternoon with hotel pickup included; the shared jeep follows a set route with fixed stops, so you don't need to navigate or coordinate timing yourself.
Bangkok: Tuk Tuk Hop-On Pass, Chao Phraya Boat & E-simYou’ll ride eco-friendly tuk tuks across Bangkok’s wild streets, hop off wherever curiosity takes you—from Wat Pho to Siam Square—and drift along the Chao Phraya River by boat. With an e-sim for easy maps and messaging plus hotel pickup included, you’ll have freedom (and AC breaks) as you explore temples, markets, and hidden corners at your own pace.
Phiphi Islands: Private Sunrise Speedboat & Pool Club LunchYou’ll start before sunrise from Phuket on a private speed boat charter to Phi Phi Islands—arriving at Maya Bay before crowds or heading to Bamboo Island if it’s closed. Swim in Pi Leh Lagoon’s emerald waters, spot monkeys from your boat near Monkey Beach, and end with a relaxed Thai lunch at a marina pool club. Expect quiet moments—and maybe a little salt left behind.
Chiang Mai Food Tour: 15+ Tastings with Local GuideA 4-hour food tour of Chiang Mai led by a professional foodie guide in a private songtheaw truck, stopping at street vendors and fresh markets to taste 15+ regional dishes. Groups stay under 8 people. The tour covers Northern Thai specialties—khao soi curry, grilled chicken, som tum papaya salad, sai oua sausage and more—that most travelers miss on their own, and ends in the Nimmanhaemin district. Bottled water is included; the tour operates in all weather and is suitable for all fitness levels, though it is not suitable for vegetarians, pescatarians, no-pork diets, or severe shellfish, peanut or gluten allergies due to the nature of street food vendors.Is it for me?The 4-hour commitment leaves your morning or afternoon intact, so you can fit this around hotel check-in, a rest day or other plans. Book it if you want to understand Northern Thai food instead of guessing at the menu, and if you're willing to eat meat—the street vendors' limited options mean vegetarians and no-pork diets will miss most of the dishes.
Koh Tao 2-Dive Day Trip from Koh Samui for Certified DiversYou're picked up from your hotel, taken to the pier for breakfast, then speedboated 80 minutes to Koh Tao for two dives at sites chosen by that day's conditions. All gear, a professional guide, lunch, and drinks are included. The boat returns to Koh Samui by mid-afternoon, so the whole day fits between breakfast and an early dinner.Is it for me?Book this if you're certified and want two dives at different sites in a single day without arranging your own boat, guide, or gear — the fixed schedule and included equipment mean you just show up with your certification card.
Hua Hin: Evening Food Market Tour & Local Eats by SongtheawYou’ll follow a local guide through Hua Hin’s lively night markets, tasting freshly cooked Thai street food while riding in a songtheaw between stops.

Children from age one are welcome, and the pace suits all fitness levels.Is it for me?Book this if you want a full-day immersion with hands-on time near elephants and big cats—the length lets you linger with animals rather than rush through exhibits.
Bangkok Tuk Tuk Night Tour: Food, drinks & Patpong MarketA 3.5-hour night tour of Bangkok led by a certified English-speaking guide, starting at the Umadevi Shrine near Chit Lom Station. You ride a private tuk tuk to an open-air restaurant in the Pratunam area for Thai dishes and a local beer, browse Patpong Night Market in Silom for sweets and souvenirs, then finish at a cozy hidden bar with craft beers, cocktails and live Thai music. The tour includes 6 Thai local dishes, 5 glasses of drinks, tuk tuk transport, and photos throughout; anyone 16 and older can join, though only those 20 and older may drink alcohol under Thai law.Is it for me?If you land in Bangkok with a free evening and want to eat like a local without planning each stop, this tour moves you through the city's night streets on a tuk tuk, handles the route and the timing, and leaves you at a hidden bar with live music instead of back at your hotel wondering where to go next.

Enjoy your own handmade lunch or dinner—and don’t be surprised if you keep thinking about those flavors long after you leave.
Snorkeling Phi Phi Islands from PhuketA full-day catamaran snorkeling tour from Phuket to the Phi Phi Islands, departing at 6am or 8am, with stops at Maya Bay, Pileh Lagoon, Viking Cave and Monkey Beach. The early departure gets you ahead of the 10,000 daily visitors; both options include hotel pickup, breakfast, lunch, snorkeling gear and a guide in English, German or Thai. Tides may shift the itinerary.Is it for me?Choose the 6am Early Bird if you want the islands before the daily surge of visitors—most operators depart later, so an early start is what gets you quiet water and uncrowded beaches. The 8am departure works if you prefer a slower morning and don't mind sharing the sites with more people; both tours visit the same stops and include the same meals and gear.
Phuket: Scuba Diving Racha & Maiton Island Small GroupYou’ll board a fast boat from Phuket to either Racha or Maiton Island for a small group scuba diving adventure—no experience needed (even non-swimmers can join).

Bangkok canal boat ride: Self-guided, 2 hoursA self-guided 2-hour private boat ride on Bangkok's smaller canals, departing and returning to the same pier.

If you prefer someone explaining what you're seeing, a guided tour would work better.
Half-Day Morning Cooking Class in Chiang Mai: Market to TableA half-day morning cooking class in Chiang Mai where you shop for fresh ingredients at a local market, then cook four Thai dishes at your own wok station under live instruction in English. Hotel pickup and drop-off within 3 km of Kom Market are included, along with an online recipe book and snacks. You learn proper technique in real time—no TV editing, no shortcuts—with an instructor who answers questions and coaches you through each step.Is it for me?The morning start and 4-hour duration mean an early commitment, but that's what lets you finish cooking and eat before the day gets hot. Come if you want to learn techniques you can actually use at home, not just watch a demo—you're doing the cooking, not observing it.
