Bad experience
I had a very bad experience. I’ve worked with many tour companies before because I usually help book trips for people I know. This time, I admit that I made a mistake and booked the wrong tour. On the day of the incident, once we realized the booking error, the guide spoke with my friend and said that it would be possible to either change the date or switch to another program. They also sent me an email confirming this. Because of that, I told my friend to come back, and I planned to go in their place instead. However, later on, they informed me that it was no longer possible. By that time, everything had already been arranged, and I ended up losing more than 5,000 baht. I explained that we only changed our plans because they had already told us it was possible. If the guide had not given us that information in the first place, we would have found another solution and avoided losing money. It also took quite a long time for the company to respond, and in the end, they only offered me a discount code that must be used within seven days. Shouldn’t they have informed me clearly before making such a decision? If this had been communicated properly from the beginning, the situation would not have turned out like this. In most cases, even if it’s a no-show, there is usually at least a 50% refund or something better. I feel that this situation is partly due to incorrect information being given to the customer. As for the 7-day discount offer, my schedule is already full, so it’s impossible for me to use it in time. In conclusion, I lost money for nothing. I do not recommend this company.
Response from the operator: Hello Suchawadee, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We appreciate you outlining your experience, as it helps us understand how situations like this are perceived from a guest’s point of view. Our tours are carefully arranged in advance, with preparations made ahead of each scheduled experience to ensure everything runs smoothly for our guests. Because of this, once a booking is confirmed and the tour date is set, it falls under our non-refundable policy, and we are unable to make exceptions in cases where plans change. While we understand that the situation was not ideal for you, many of our guests have shared how much they enjoy our Chinatown experience, particularly the variety of tastings and the insight provided by our local guides. It is something we are proud to offer and consistently receive positive feedback on. We do appreciate your understanding regarding the policy, and we hope there may be an opportunity to welcome you on one of our tours in the future when your schedule allows.

Bangkok Birthday Bash
We had a wonderful evening in Chinatown with Jan (Chantana) leading our small group. She shared historical and cultural information as we walked, and was knowledgeable about the preparation of each dish, even helping prep food at times. She even arranged for a birthday celebration for me in the course of the evening. We could not have planned such an enjoyable experience on our own. Wow!!!
Response from the operator: Thank you for posting your feedback here. We’re glad the selection of stops and the stories behind them added to your visit. You’re always welcome to join Secret Food Tours again during future travels!

Jan leads a brilliant Secret Food Tour
Jan was an incredibly enthusiastic and multi skilled leader and guide. She quickly unified the group with her knowledge and made sure everyone could participate in the range if food on offer. She ensured the group was well looked after by varying soice levels and working around allergies. She also actively wirked with the cooks and restaurant owners, assisting with other customers while they looked after us. Regional soecialties and food histories were explained and demonstrated. The night ended with local beer and shots, sheltered from the rain with sime very tasty duck soup. Highly recommended!
Response from the operator: We appreciate your review and your time with us. It’s wonderful to hear that the tastings and stories gave you a true taste of the city’s personality. We’d love to have you join us again for another culinary adventure!

Disappointing
Ton, our guide was lovely and very knowledgeable about Buddhism, we learned a lot from him about Thai spirituality! We very much let down about the fact that we had one group member with allergies, we had warned the company and guide beforehand, and were reassured everything would be adapted. In reality we had to remind the guide about the severe allergies at every single stop, and often no adaptions were made, once leading to our group member having to spit out a bite… Unfortunately in general we did not feel the price justified the experience. The food was alright but not amazing, nothing we hadn’t tasted before in Thailand. In addition, we did not learn anything about food or food culture in Thailand. All in all, if it’s your first time ever in Bangkok you’ll have a nice time, but if you have any experience with Thai and Chinese food, you’re better off going on your own for a fraction of the price.
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, Shelly. While we do our best to ensure dietary restrictions are communicated in advance, it’s disappointing that you had to remind the guide at each stop and that suitable alternatives were not always available. This is certainly something we take seriously, and we will be reviewing this with our team to improve how we handle allergies on our tours. We also appreciate your thoughts on the food selection. Our tour is designed to showcase authentic local flavors, and we understand that for those already familiar with Thai cuisine, the experience may not feel as new or unique. That said, many of our guests love the curated stops and the cultural insights that come with them. We value your feedback, as it helps us refine our experiences. If you ever decide to join another Secret Food Tour in a different city, we’d love the opportunity to provide a more enjoyable experience for you.

Why this scores 73
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Bangkok Food Tour with 10+ Tastings in Chinatown: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bangkok.
How much does Private Bangkok Food Tour with 10+ Tastings in Chinatown cost?
+
Prices start at $60 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bangkok usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Bangkok Food Tour with 10+ Tastings in Chinatown take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Bangkok is not rushed.
Is Private Bangkok Food Tour with 10+ Tastings in Chinatown worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 69 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable family friendly in Bangkok, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Bangkok Food Tour with 10+ Tastings in Chinatown?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Private Bangkok Food Tour with 10+ Tastings in Chinatown suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Bangkok Food Tour with 10+ Tastings in Chinatown?
+
Around 24 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 Bangkok 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 Bangkok and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Bangkok Food Tour with 10+ Tastings in Chinatown 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 Bangkok 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 Bangkok?
+
On Outty we rank every Bangkok experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Bangkok Backstreets Food Tour with 15+ Tastings, Old Siam Bangkok Food Tour with 15+ Tastings, Tingly Thai Cooking Class with Morning Market Tour. 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 Bangkok?
+
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 Bangkok?
+
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.
