Pattaya Naklua Street Food Tour - 14+ Tastings & Small Group

Walk the traditional fishing village of Naklua
in search of the food locals eat

Meet at the main gate of Naklua Chalermprakiat Park and start the walking tour. Naklua is Pattaya's 100-year-old traditional fishing village, a world away from the flashy nightlife. With your food guide, visit 8–9 places where locals actually eat. The tour lasts about 3.5–4 hours depending on the group's pace.

Seafood and kuay jub at the Old Market

At the Old Market, your guide introduces fresh seafood brought in from the boats in the harbor. You'll also taste kuay jub, rolled noodles in a peppery broth.

Next, step into "Old Pattaya," where wooden shopfronts and narrow alleys remain, and taste moo daeng pork buns made from long-standing family recipes.

Enjoy street food at New Naklua Market

At New Naklua Market, taste street food such as flame-grilled fish cake skewers, pan-fried kui chai dumplings from Grandpa Ta-Pae, thumb-sized rice dumplings and khanom bueang, crispy crepes filled with coconut cream.

You'll also meet local vendors who have fed the village for generations, and taste oysters fried in golden batter, pork leg slowly braised in a sauce with cinnamon and star anise, and hor mok pla, a fish curry mousse steamed in banana leaves.

Finish at a seafood restaurant run by former fishermen

The tour ends at a seafood restaurant run by former fishermen. Finish with dishes such as squid stir-fried in squid ink, an egg volcano hot pot that puffs up over a flame in the center, and crispy fried fish.
