If you experience a problem when booking, please call us at +6695-943-9222 or email us at info@phuketfoodtours.com

2. Can I get a refund or reschedule my tickets?

Tickets cannot be refunded as your space is guaranteed on the tour once purchased. Refund is, therefore, not allowed for no shows, or late arrivals and each tour is scheduled to depart on time. However, reschedule is possible in case your new requested tour is still available.

3. Are there discounted tickets for children?

Yes, we offer a special price for children under 12.

*Gratuity is not included in the ticket price, but is always greatly appreciated.

At this point, we are so sorry that we are still not able to accommodate vegetarian.

6. How much walking is involved in a tour?

The tour is approximately 3.5 hours of walking with many stops. We walk at a very leisurely pace. At each tasting location, you can take a break as all almost all of our tasting locations are seated. The walking distance is no more than 2 kilometers.

7. Are there restroom breaks during a tour?

Yes, restrooms are available at every food-tasting location during the tour.

8. Are walking tours given in bad weather?

Tours are held rain or shine. We also provide ponchos in case of sudden weather changes and you do not have your own umbrella. We only cancel our tour in an unlikely event of extreme bad weather. In that case, we will try our best to reschedule your tour or refund.

Definitely. Cameras (and videos) are allowed and encouraged during the tour.

To stay on schedule and continue with the informative tour and food tastings in a timely manner, we ask that you please wait to shop until after the tour. You can allow time at the end of the tour to return to your favorite stores located in the map provided. Our guide can also help you with directions to them.

11. Are tours offered only in English?

Yes, currently, our tour is only conducted in English.

12. How many people can attend a tour?

The maximum number of people per tour guide is 12. If one tour is sold out there is a very good chance we will offer another that same day.

Sorry…due to the various food establishments we visit, pets are not allowed on the tour.
