Experience the hidden side of the tropical paradise island of Phuket. Treat yourself with Phuket’s heritage cuisine on this six-hour delicacy-packed tour. Enjoy the local favorite dishes and the rare Peranakan food served at eateries known only to the locals. Learn about the thriving Peranakan culture and soak up the locals' ways of life in the city's oldest quarter where the most complete Sino-Portuguese architecture remains. Thailand's top tropical island paradise, Phuket is also a foodie haven. It was dubbed 'a city of gastronomy' by UNESCO thanks to the local multiple-generation cuisine that thrives in its Old Town which this tour will explore. The neighborhood, being the city's center of Peranakan or Baba culture, features flavorful Chinese food as well as the hard-to-find Peranakan cuisine which mixes royal Thai, Hokkien, and Malay cooking. It is also known as the home to the most complete examples of picturesque Sino-Portuguese buildings. And while the charms of the neighborhood are unveiled before you, you get to soak into the locals' ways of life which is slow and simple as if it hasn't been affected by time. Every corner of the neighborhood is worth a photo. Your culinary journey will end at the hilltop restaurant at the heart of Phuket where you can get the beautiful panoramic townscape of the city before beind dropped off at your hotel.
