Suwannee Thai Cooking and Market Visit from Chiang Rai

Planning your Chiang Rai itinerary? Try tasting the color, aroma, and flavor at Suwannee Cooking School, where you’ll cook 3 authentic Thai dishes and 1 traditional dessert, explore a lively market, and learn from an experienced local chef who brings every ingredient to life.
