Phuket Easy Thai Cooking Class And Market Tour

What a fantastic cultural, cooking experience. Loved every minute

What a great afternoon we had. Picked up from our hotel on time, stopped for a short market visit to buy ingredients before our class. The cooking class itself was very well organised and informative. Lots of prep done for us before we arrived. The food we made was so nice. We made 4 different dishes. Could only manage to eat 2 of them but the ladies working there put the rest in take home packaging for us. Would definitely recommend, the team were helpful and welcoming, great value for money.

Incredibly thoughtful and respectful crew Amazing menus and teaching style Dishes explained and hands on cooking experience Highly recommended

We had a great time, Nana was awesome, very informative and the food was delicious and her helper’s were wonderful as well. Nana had magnificent English skills also. We were so impressed with the class and would definitely recommend it to others. Kind regards, Chris & Debbie Becker.

What a great experience. We not only cooked some of the popular Thai dishes we also learnt a lot. My 7 year old and 10 year old absolutely loved it as well. Highly recommend.

Divine aromatic food. What a lovely morning with Nana. Extremely organised cooking class. Food was absolutely divine flavour bombs. 100% recommend this cooking tour.

Really fun experience! Nana was really knowledgeable about the food and told us a lot about ingredients at the market. The cooking class itself was very easy to follow and everything ended up delicious!

One of the best experiences we had on our trip- the host(Tik) was awesome. She was so fun to be around! The food we made was the best Thai food we have ever had. Fresh, delicious and fun to make. We strongly recommend you do this tour when you’re in Phuket.

Eventually when you get to the cooking area, it is a great space with good group size where you learn about 4 main dishes and prepare and then cook them. The serving size is good, the food is fresh, and the class is well led in a lighthearted manner. It is located very south of Phuket so can be a very long ride for anyone from Patong or Old Town

Tik and her team bent over backwards to make the experience enjoyable. They accommodated dietary restrictions and engaged everyone in the group. We had so much food that she issued takeaway containers to those of us who could put leftovers in our fridge!

Tik was very informative she made sure to show you every detail at the market . She held back no secrets and also had a funny humor . This cooking class also provides you with good menu and ingredients to many popular Thai dishes . The number one thing was AC

Great experience, very kind Chef and kitchen staff! Unfortunately, my partner started to come down with travelers diarrhea (from a meal the previous day elsewhere!) and they were so kind and accommodating. They were constantly checking on him, getting him water, and they even cooked his portion of the meals and package them for us to take to go. I was able to still complete the class and we sped up the cooking so we could get home for him to rest. The market was a great experience, the kitchen is a short 10 minutes away. We had our own car, but they did offer us transportation. Great communication with staff prior to about needs for transportation.I had a blast and enjoyed learning about the local produce, and my favorite was learning how to make green curry paste and pad Thai! Would highly recommend when in Phuket! 🙏

My husband & I just returned from our trip to Phuket Thailand and we booked the afternoon cooking class ahead of time. Unbeknownst to us, we had a private class! TIK took us to a local market and showed and explained all the different vegetables and seasonings needed for the recipes. A plus to the class. We made Pad see ew , soup, shrimp skewers w peanut sauce (usually chicken but we are pescatarians) mango rice. All super delicious!! Had to doggie bag it back to the hotel. She’s very funny and informative. She also had lots of helpers to assist her. I cannot recommend this class enough. A MUST DO! So glad we booked it. We traveled with a group of 30 and told them about it, and they wanted to do it also but unable to fit it into the itinerary. Thank you TIK and thank you for the recipes! We will be making them at home, soon!

A Must-Do Cooking Class in Phuket! Phuket Easy Thai Cooking is an experience we’ll never forget! The class is perfectly organized, extremely clean, and so much fun. Our teacher, Tik, was amazing — incredibly skilled, patient, and always happy to help. She made everything feel easy and enjoyable. We cooked some of the most iconic Thai dishes: Tom Yum, green curry, fried rice, and sticky rice. Every single dish turned out absolutely delicious — just like in the best Thai restaurants! A special part of the day was the visit to the local market. Tik introduced us to a variety of fresh herbs and vegetables that are essential in Thai cooking, many of which were completely new to us. It was super interesting and added so much to the overall experience. If you’re in Phuket and love food, don’t miss this class. You’ll learn how to cook real Thai food at a high level and have a great time doing it. Highly recommended!

Highlight of my trip to Phuket. Tik was amazing with a great sense of humor. Everything was clean and well prepared, professional set up for classes, prep and cooking. Highly recommend

Fantastic afternoon. Tik, the host, was excellent. Very knowledgeable and funny and made it a really fun experience. The food was delicious as well!

Wonderful introduction to basic Thai cooking and the ingredients used, from the market visit to the classroom, we had a most enjoyable time… especially the final tasting of the dishes created! Our only suggestion to add to the experience, would be for more hands on during the preparation of the food. We do realize that we were making 3 dishes and had a limited amount of time! The instructor Tictoc was very knowledgeable, engaging and funny! We would recommend this cooking class!

The instructor met us at the food market to explain and purchase the ingredients we would need for our class. Her sense of humour was immediately evident. The class setting was spacious and well organized. There were a number of helpers assisting. We prepared 4 dishes and one tea. The results were delicious. My only suggestion would be to allow the students more hands on preparation. I do realize that time was limited.

If you’re visiting Thailand and you like the food, doing a cooking class is a must. This one was simple and clear for some of our favorites. Thanks Tiktok for being entertaining in the process.

This market stop/cooking class was the perfect cap to our 3-day visit to Phuket. We were picked up and dropped off from the Patong jetty and rode in an aircon van to Phuket City. Tik met us at the market and gathered the produce for our class, explaining their uses as she shopped. A short ride away, we entered a bright, airy space with a table pre-set with all the tools needed for our class. Tik explained which ingredients would be used in the 3 dishes on the menu and we set to work peeling, slicing, dicing and piling up vegetables, roots and herbs. Our classroom was scented with delicious aromatics as we busied ourselves with the prep work. In the kitchen separated by glass doors, we cooked our individual dishes after watching Tik's step-by-step demonstration. Throughout the class, the room was filled with chatter and Tik's no-nonsense approach and infectious humor. We only fell silent when we brought our dishes back to the table to taste what we had prepared, our faces and spoons focused on the delicious food in front of us. Even my husband, a picky eater, was admittedly impressed by the whole experience. Few of us could finish our plates because the portions were so generous and most of us carried away leftovers. This experience was unforgettable and we're hoping we'll be able to replicate some of these dishes when we return home.

This was the highlight of my partner's and my trip to Thailand. Other than the delicious food we got to eat at the end, the instructor, Tik, was excellent and made it such a fun experience for all of us. We've already made the green curry recipe at home that we learned in class and it turned out amazing!

Tik the host was absolutely incredible, she was very enthusiastic and kind. I will 100% be going back! Recipes were really great and will definitely be making these at home. Exceeded our expectations! Excellent experience 🙏

The host was outstanding. Very entertaining. TT educated us on the different types of ingredients that go into a curry. The portion sizes were outstanding. More than enough to eat there and take home. Did not like: Viator said start time was 3:30pm, actual start time was 2pm. Experience was wonderful.

Fantastic! Tik, who hosted the afternoon, was fantastic! Very funny, interesting and educational. The trip to the market to buy the ingredients was interesting. The setting was superb and the food we prepared was delicious! Highly recommended! AAA+++

Great detailed instruction. Good language skills so communication was easy. Glad it was a small class. Have done others with large groups and it is not as much fun.

What an experience! It's our first tome to do this and the activity didnt disappoint. Happy to go home with new skills! Haha

Fantastic! Great value for money. The chef, Tik, was very funny, interesting and informative. The food was delicious. Highly recommended.

Such a fantastic class. Our teacher Tik was very attentive, spoke great English, taught us about all the ingredients at the market and tips about how to prepare and chop things. I did the class with my sister who is pregnant and she was so accomodating to her as well, checking she was ok with heat/certain ingredients. The other ladies in the school were so professional, prepping stuff in the background and making the whole process so streamline. They give you a recipe book of all the dishes to take home too. Definitely recommended

This class was so fun! Very laid back environment, loved that the whole family was around helping and best of all, the food was SO YUM! I had pineapple rice our first night in Thailand and wanted to learn to make it so I can make it for my family. We weren’t able to finish all the delicious food but were offered to take it with us to go. Definitely recommend this experience in Phuket!

An unforgettable culinary journey! The Thai Food Cooking Class in Phuket exceeded all expectations. From the moment we stepped in, the vibrant atmosphere and the passionate teacher made every moment memorable. Not only did we learn the secrets of Thai cuisine, but we also indulged in the most delicious creations we made ourselves. A must-do experience for any food enthusiast visiting Phuket!

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and plenty of it . The cooking area is not air conditioned so be prepared to sweat a bit. The location allows each person to pick their own dish which I thought was cool , but it got a bit confusing when they try to teach multiple dishes at one time and its hard to understand with the language barriers. The market tour was amazing and we enjoyed it a lot. The guide is very sweet and she did a good job its just difficult to hear in the loud market so we missed a lot of interesting information. I would do it again but I would do a private class to get more out of it.

This was a great tour! We visited the market and then prepared our own Thai dinner. The green curry was my favorite dish! Recipes were included and it was so much fun!

My husband and I had a great time in this cooking class. The tour took us to a local market to shop for our ingredients and then to a kitchen to make our meal... Pad Thai, Green Curry, Mango w/ Sweet Rice. All very easy to make and so delicious. Our guide was so fun and knowledgable about cooking! We'll be cooking our own Thai food when we return home!

This was an amazing experience, picked up from the hotel, then grocery shopping at the market, then cooking fabulous tasty dishes with the group. Vegetarian options provided - thank you so much for the personal touch!

Really good trip. We booking the morning session and we were collected from the hotel on time. Went to the market to collect our ingredients & our instructor explained about all the ingredients, very informative. Then we were taken to the kitchen/classroom This area was clean and tidy and well equipped. We cooked a total of 4 dishes - all delicious. Great 4hrs - would highly recommend this if you wish to understand & improve your thai cooking skills more

Great instructor, curricula is a great balance between basic background and practical hands on. Clean, well equipped, transport was on time…all great, learned a lot!

My son and I took Karn's cooking class and had a wonderful time!!! She is lovely, warm, and knowledgeable. She was super accommodating since I am a vegetarian and she gave me many veggie options. The food was amazing! We enjoyed the shopping with her, the whole learning experience, the cooking stations, and the leftovers. I would highly recommend Karn's class to anyone!

Such a good class! Made 4 dishes and got to enjoy it all at the end. The amrket tour was interesting also and pick up / drop off was a good touch too

Loved this experience. Excellent hosts and teachers. The markets were interesting, the produce was fresh.

I had a great time making great food!! She was very patient and taught me about the different ingredients I wasn’t as familiar with.

A very nice experience to discover local food and market. The teacher was very nice, allowing us to choose the meal we want to learn. I recommended it.

This was an amazing experience. She was so kind and funny from the minute she picked me and my wife up. She took us to the market which was also a great experience. It seemed like everyone knew her there. The cooking was fun and informative and TASTY. 10/10 must do it again!!!

The short shopping in the local market and the following cooking was a great experience. We got a lot of information about thai cooking and could practice the whole cooking process. The atmosphere was great and we could laugh a lot. You really have to be very hungry, as everyone makes its three dishes. It will be a lot of good food. Would do it again.

Omg great experience! Karn was sooooo funny. She took us to the market and explained all of the food items we'd be using and walked us through step by step how to cook them. I never thought I could cook Thai food better than the restaurants back home (USA). Wonderful experience- highly recommend.

It was only five of us in class, and it was a very intimate setting. When Karns friends came to help, they set up every single plate for us so that we didn’t get confused. She was so sweet and even allowed my daughter to take part and cook her own. We did more than just learn in this class, we traded cultural differences, we had uneasy convos, and everyone left full, satisfied, and with their own serving of each dish. She and her team really made this a pleasant experience. We would do this again on a different day just to be around Karn and her team again. You would have an amazing time because we definitely did. Thank you!

It was a good experience. The Market Tour was fun. She explained about the difference of why we use the particular ingridients and its substitues. She has an excellent sense of humor. I was hesitant since I was going by my own but she made me comfortable.

Very disappointed with this cooking class. Garn was very disorganised on the day of our course. I didn't find this cooking class hands on enough. I have previously done other Thai cooking courses in Thailand over the last 20 years. One of the recipes printed out had all the ingredients missing on the page. Also found another recipes she was making was different to what was on typed page. Ingredients missing. Very confusing. We all sat at a long table and had to cut up different vegetables for her to make the green curry paste in a blender. There was no asking anyone to wash their hands before cutting up the vegetables. We then went into kitchen (were asked to wash our hands) to cook our green curry. Later went back into kitchen to cook our Pad Thai noodles - best I have ever tasted. We didn't get to make or cook the chicken satays. The kitchen helpers did all of this. We did get to see how the satay sauce was made. Although she had forgotten on key ingredient when at the markets prior to the cooking course. So we had to wait for her to get on her bike and get it and come back. Meanwhile we sat around waiting. To make matters worse, she had completely forgotten about the dessert that was made and asked everyone did they want to take it home with them as "take out" as she had run out of time. Not enough time spent hands on. Too much time sitting around waiting. All around disappointed in this for the price we paid - would have expected more.

I am no cook and would not believe within a few hours that I could cook such lovely food! Ghan, was very personable, informative and funny. We had a great time. We booked direct with her and we were the only people so we had a choice of what we wanted to cook. Great day all round, thank you. Blyth, Boo and Reuben

Our day started with pick up from our hotel with the “chef” and her car. She was lovely, warm and friendly and put instantly at ease. The market was amazing and not at all (thankfully) what we were expecting. There were no overpowering smells or confronting sights. Beautiful, fresh and exotic fruit and veggies, flowers, seafood, chicken, spices and curry pastes. Our “teacher” had excellent English and a fun, cheeky sense of humour. She welcomed us into her home and “her kitchen, her rules” 😄. Her instruction was the perfect mix of insight, education and involvement. You do NOT need to wonder if you will have enough to eat, there is so much delicious food which you have created and get to enjoy. We cooked Pad Thai, Spring Rolls, made a green curry paste and a chicken curry with it and finished with a delicious sticky rice and mango. Was great for 2 capable cooks but something the family could enjoy together if the kids were interested. Basic knife skills are all that’s required. Highly recommend. I suggest a light breakfast/lunch depending on your class time.
