Two of Bangkok's best markets are on the agenda on this immersive walking tour. First up is Or Tor Kor Market, considered one of the world's top fresh produce markets. Next, head to Chatuchak Weekend Market, Asia's largest outdoor market, where you'll find exotic displays of goods. Santisuk, one of our local guides, says, ‘You'll get to try lots of tasty things at Or Kor Tor, which is a truly unmissable stop for foodies. The fresh produce and the excellent food court are renowned for their quality.'
Or Tor Kor Market is the more exclusive of the two – vendors zealously guard their overflowing displays, perfect piles of colourful produce adorned with leaves and flowers. Your guide will give you the lowdown on the mesmerising range of tropical fruit and veg, advising on the best Thai street food to try at the food hall section. Santisuk adds, ‘In Thai tradition, durian and mangosteen are eaten together because durian is a “warming” fruit, which heats the body, whereas mangosteen is a “cooling” fruit, so they balance each other out. You should try them.'
A short stroll away is Chatuchak Weekend Market, where thousands of vendors hawk dizzying amounts of wares. Rumoured to hold nearly 10,000 stalls, Chatuchak is the definition of retail therapy. The beat of dance music and the aroma of Thai cuisine waft through the air as you search for that perfect souvenir. Your guide will teach you a few key words of Thai so that you can bargain and barter for the best deal.
