Traveler reviews
spending more time picking up other people than cooking!
our hotel pick up was cancelled a few before the start of the activity as our hotel was too far out (not an issue for the elephant or zip lining experience). paid for a taxi to be there at 3.30pm as instructed, we then spent just under 2 hours driving around picking up other people who were even further out than we were! waste of time and bad communication from this travel agent. activity itself ok, chef was more interested in one of the ladies in the group so rest of us were ignored. we left before the dessert. it is a lot of money and you would expect better value for that amount. if you are going to do a cooking course, look for a different operstor
avoid at all cost
our pick up was cxld a few days before start of event as our hotel was outside the zone. we were told to be on site at 3.30pm so had to pay for taxi. when we arrived we had to go in a van and we drove around for more than one hour and 20 min picking other people up. complete waste of our time. safe yourself the hassle and look for a cooking class near your hotel. not worth the money
Smileys cooking school highly recommended
Was amazing…English explanations easy to understand and going to the market before we started to cook gave us all a solid explanation of all the ingredients. We had a fantastic time and our chef had a great sense of humour and he certainly added to the entire evening being fun and the best money spent on a really wonderful experience. Thank you we will be back!
Fantastic cooking course
The staff were amazing as is…we were taken to a market where we learnt all about the different Thai ingredients and what the uses were. The actual chef spoke good English had a fantastic sense of of humour. We cooked all our dinner then ate it …..great experience . Highly recommend it. Money well spent
