A lot of fun and a lot of food!
We had a fabulous experience with Annie, who helped us cook the most delicious meals. There was so much food we had to take some away with us. It was great to learn about the local ingredients and the differences in regional dishes. I can't believe how good it all tasted - definitely going to try and recreate at home

Amazing experience at Authentic Thai Cooking!
Amazing experience today at Authentic Thai Cooking, we cooked 5 different recipes, choosing between one fried rice dish, one soup and one curry, in addition to Spring Rolls and Mango Sticky Rice as dessert. Special thanks to the teacher New, which was very kind and helpful through the whole process. Very fresh ingredients and very tasty meals. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience ❤️❤️❤️
The best couple of hours, in the afternoon I've had so far in Krabi. Chef New was awesome. Very informative and funny. She had us laughing all the time. We learnt about the ingredients, and how they go together. Preparation is the key. We made a wide selection of dishes that included, spring rolls, a curry, a soup, a stir fried dish and everyone's favourite mango sticky rice. The place was clean, we had plenty of water to drink. I have to say it's the best foood I've ever made. Definitely worth doing, I loved ever second xxx thank you New & team ❤️

Wonderful class! The pad...
Wonderful class! The pad thai, green curry, chicken coconut milk soup, spring rolls and sticky mango rice were superb. The instructor was highly knowledgeable and a great instructor. Be sure to come hungry. You will not be hungry when you leave.

Why this scores 80
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Hands on Half-day Cooking Class by Authentic Thai Cooking: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Krabi.
How much does Hands on Half-day Cooking Class by Authentic Thai Cooking cost?
+
Prices start at $47 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Krabi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Hands on Half-day Cooking Class by Authentic Thai Cooking take?
+
Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Krabi is not rushed.
Is Hands on Half-day Cooking Class by Authentic Thai Cooking worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 78 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Krabi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Hands on Half-day Cooking Class by Authentic Thai Cooking?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Hands on Half-day Cooking Class by Authentic Thai Cooking suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Hands on Half-day Cooking Class by Authentic Thai Cooking?
+
Around 27 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Krabi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Krabi and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hands on Half-day Cooking Class by Authentic Thai Cooking start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Krabi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Krabi?
+
On Outty we rank every Krabi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Full-Day Phi Phi Islands Tour with Lunch from Krabi, Phi Phi Early Bird & 4 Islands - Day Tour by Speedboat From Krabi, Railay and 4-Island Sunset Speedboat Cruise with Night Snorkel. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Krabi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Krabi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
