Chiang Mai food trail in one day
Eat your way through several neighbourhoods in one day without having to find parking. Walk the old market by the Ping River in the morning, have khao soi or northern Thai food for lunch, then spend the afternoon in a district of restaurants and desserts. Send us the names of places you want to try and we’ll order the stops so you don’t double back.
Suits groups of friends and families who come to Chiang Mai to eat, and anyone who already has a list of places in mind.
