Experience tomorrow the best of
Chiang Mai with Withlocals

"We had 3 tours with Wuthikorn booked and I'm so glad we did! This was a walking tour of the old town, and he took us to see a number of temples and hidden gems. We had seen a few showy temples at the edges of the city, but Wuthikorn took us to the historic ones which we found much more interesting and indeed, much more impressive! I cannot say enough good things about the tour and all we learned about Buddhism, the history of the city, and the traditions we were witnessing. If you have the chance, book a tour with him!"

"I booked this tour for my husband who is a foodie. Wuthikorn brought us to multiple locations, understanding that we would want to try different dishes and styles of local foods. He did not overwhelm us with food either which is a very tricky thing to balance in a food tour and he did it perfectly! He took us to places that we never would have found on our own and we did not see very many tourists at any of them. The food was all delicious and Wuthikorn was able to explain the dishes to us - how they were made, the history of the locations, and even the people making it! It was a really great experience!"

"We had a lovely time with Naphat :) not only did it make our street food tasting interesting, tasty and safer (avoiding next day regrets is always a plus :p), we felt very privileged to get to know her a bit through her way of life and spirituality and simply sharing a connecting & genuine human moment… we learnt a lot about culinary habits, culture and do’s and don't‘s with little tips and tricks along the walk. Highly recommend!! "

"Slowly walking through the city with Naphat’s guidance was a beautiful introduction to Thailand’s culture center. Not only did I get a more authentic view of life in Chiang Mai, I also received spiritual transmissions from Naphat. She has spent much time studying and living spiritual practices. Time with her helped me remember key lessons in presence, acceptance, self inquiry, and equanimity. I am writing this review on the last day of a two week trip visiting Thailand. I took many tours - through caves, the jungle, in elephant sanctuaries, and hot springs. All of them were beautiful memories, but I took deep lessons from my time with Naphat. If you want a spiritually rich experience while visiting Thailand, join one of Naphat’s tours. You will learn so much! ✨"

"Our guide Purichat was very knowledgeable about the Lana food and culture and how the dishes came to be. It was more than a food tour, it was an experience. We had tastings of food that we otherwise would not have eaten, or even known about. The origins and ingredients of the dishes were very interesting. Must do tour. We would do it again when we come back (hopefully with more spice tolerance), and hopefully with the same guide. Highly recommended!"

"We had a fantastic walking tour of Chiang Mai with Ae and highly recommend her. She began by giving us a clear and helpful overview of the Old City—its 1-square-mile layout, historic gates, and the symbolism behind its shape. She also explained the history of the moat, originally built as protection from fire. Ae guided us through back alleyways, local snack markets (treating us to a few samples), and helped us enjoy our first tuk tuk ride between Nimman and the Old City. We visited several temples, including Wat Phra Singh, Viharn Lai Kham, Wat Phan On, and more. She taught us proper temple etiquette, including the significance of bowing three times, and shared interesting cultural details like how lantern colors align with the day of one’s birth. One meaningful stop was the Mae Kha Canal area, where Ae explained recent flooding and the government’s revitalization efforts. The tour included refreshments at Naree Café, a unique spot run by incarcerated women, and a quick walkthrough of Warorot Market before our tuk tuk back to Nimman. Ae was knowledgeable, engaging, and thoughtful throughout the tour. She made the city easy to understand and appreciate. Highly recommended for anyone wanting an insightful introduction to Chiang Mai."

"It was not only a mouth-watering experience, but a truly heart-warming one as well. We had the most wonderful evening with Mai, who took us to her favorite spots and shared so much about local food and produce. As a cook herself, she explained beautifully how dishes are prepared and which ingredients bring them to life. We didn’t just visit the small local eateries—she also guided us through a food market where we were able to chat with vendors and cooks. Mai is such a fun, warm person, and we enjoyed an evening filled with laughter and great conversation about far more than just food. By the time we said goodbye, it felt like we were parting from a friend. Thank you so much for your hospitality, Mai"
