Hop on Bangkok’s iconic three-wheeled tuk-tuk and head into the heart of the city to explore some of its favourite local food spots. Bangkok is a city where eating is very much part of everyday life, with locals regularly heading out in the evening to enjoy food with family and friends.
The first stop is a traditional local food area to sample a selection of popular Thai snacks as an appetiser. Continue to a much-loved local eatery to taste comforting Thai favourites and discover some unique dishes on the menu. With the guide’s recommendations, there may even be an opportunity to try something a little more adventurous.
Take a break from the food stops with a visit to Wat Suthat, one of Bangkok’s most iconic sights, for a unique nighttime perspective. Admire its illuminated chedis while learning about the temple’s fascinating history. Then, take in the view of the Giant Swing, situated right in front of the temple.
Having sampled some Thai appetisers and explored a couple sights, continue to the next stop for a hearty main course. This traditional restaurant offers a wide selection of local dishes, with the guide on hand to help choose from the menu.
After the savoury dishes, enjoy a traditional Thai pudding. The stall serving this is a simple roadside setup that is well-known for its silky-smooth, melt-in-your-mouth tofu pudding and charcoal-boiled ginger soup that offers a rich, bold and delightfully spicy kick. This simple but delicious treat is a local favourite and a must-try.
Between the food stops, enjoy the atmosphere of Bangkok at night as the tuk-tuk weaves through the city's iconic streets.
The night concludes with a final stop at a secret, hidden bar nearby. Sip on a chilled Thai beer or a non-alcoholic drink, accompanied by some famous Thai appetisers, while enjoying stunning night views of the Giant Swing and the glittering temple.
