Sasa was the perfect host. The tour was more than expected and the food offered was so tasty. The deep fried chicken skin who would have thought would taste so good but the best by far was the deep fried mushroom. If I could I would have brought kilos of it to bring back home with me. Sasa thank you so much for being not only a great host and photographer but a bit of a comedian too! I have done a few tours during my stay here and I have to say that this is my favourite, not only for the stops and the food but the host truly kept us engaged. Lastly the tuk tuk driver, so attentive and offering us water and even running out to give us our water bottles when accidently left them in the tuk tuk at we got out to our next stop. .

Duck was a great host and guide for this food tour via tuk tuk even despite the torrential rain storm. We had fun with it! The street food was great, we learned about the fundamentals of Buddhism and Thai culture, and had a delicious dinner. Great introduction to the city!!

what a great experience...I am so glad we booked this tour on our stop over in Bangkok..from catching the train to our rendezvous to being dropped back at our hotel, I can not fault this trip. our guide was SaSa and she was brilliant, fun and full of knowledge. we have never been to Thailand and this tour gave us a great taster as to what to eat and see. Our driver for the evening was Saskan and his driving skills are second to none. Thank you SaSa for a great night and a fantastic experience 😊 the Rock & Roll Girls x

This tour was a blast! The owner of the company is so nice it almost feels suspicious. Our guide and TukTuk driver were amazing, and the food was delicious—we tried Thai street food we didn’t even know existed, and now we’re emotionally attached to all of it. It’s a shame it rained during the tour, but honestly, it just made the night extra memorable. We were zooming through the streets, slightly soggy, well-fed, and still learning. Fun AND informative—apparently even the weather couldn’t stop us.

Absolutely wonderful time. From michelin star Pad Thai, to beautiful temples, to feeding turtles, to a giant flower market and ice cream in Chinatown, it had it all including a thunderstorm! Si Si our guide was so much fun and the small convoy of Tuk Tuks was hilarious but yet sort of excellerating. Really glad we did this and you will to.
