Descrizione del tour
Pattaya has a reputation that has nothing to do with food, which means the one genuinely excellent food experience in town goes almost entirely unvisited. Lan Po market in Naklua, on the old fishing side of the bay, is where the boats land and where the town's Thai-Chinese families have bought seafood for generations. It runs from dawn and is finished by one in the afternoon.
The system is simple and your guide will walk you through it: you choose live prawns, crab, razor clams or a whole fish at the tanks, negotiate the price by the kilo, then carry it to one of the cook stalls at the back, who will grill, steam with lime and chilli, or stir-fry it with garlic for a small cooking fee. It arrives at your table twenty minutes later. There is no menu and almost no English, which is what a guide is for.
Before the seafood we eat Thai breakfast in the market lanes - rice porridge, pork skewers, coffee poured through a cloth sock - and afterwards we walk through the old Naklua fishing village and the Chinese shrine that predates the resort town by a century.
Small group, maximum 10 guests, entirely on foot.

Politica di cancellazione
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before the tour start time for a full refund. Cancellations within 24 hours are non-refundable, because the seafood is bought on the morning of the tour. Tours run rain or shine; the market is covered.
Altre note
Runs daily at 07:30. The market is busiest between 08:00 and 11:00 and is finished by about 13:00, so there is no afternoon or evening version of this tour.
Shellfish is the entire point of this tour. If you cannot eat shellfish, please take a different tour - we cannot meaningfully substitute here.
Getting here: Naklua is about 10 minutes by taxi north of central Pattaya. The baht bus loop covers part of Naklua Road; your guide can explain the route back.
Dietary needs: tell us at least 48 hours ahead. A no-pork route is easy. Vegetarian does not work at a fish market.
Rain season runs May to October, peaking September and October. The market is under cover but the walk is not.
Minimum age 8. About 1 km of flat walking.
