The round trip transportation is very easy, and you can be dropped off at other places on the way back, such as the night market. You can visit the local street market, learn about different ingredients, and have 10 minutes of free time. You can see different spices in their small farm. The cooking area is spacious, clean, and has fans. The teacher is very humorous and can create a good atmosphere, making everyone very involved. The food portions are very sufficient, and the cooking methods are simple and easy to understand. During the class, there are staff members who help take snapshots. You will receive an email link 2 days later. They are very considerate. I look forward to them having more different authentic dishes^-^

Thank you so much Bim! You really love what you do and thank you for all the awesome information. She also takes very nice photos and the tour went smoothly. Chiang Mai City is indeed a big museum and not just only a historical landmark. Highly recommended! Please book Bim as your guide.
