It is an excellent choice for travelers looking for a memorable Chiang Mai cultural experience after a day of sightseeing.

Sit back, relax and enjoy the journey as Chiang Mai changes from a busy daytime destination into a lively city filled with evening lights and traditional northern Thai atmosphere.
Traditional Khan Toke Dinner in Chiang Mai
The highlight of this experience is a traditional Khan Toke dinner, one of the best-known ways to experience the food and hospitality of northern Thailand. The name Khan Toke refers to the traditional low pedestal tray used to serve food, and the dinner experience reflects the customs and traditions of the Lanna Kingdom and northern Thai culture.
During your Chiang Mai Khan Toke dinner, you can enjoy a selection of traditional northern Thai dishes served together in a communal style. Northern Thai cuisine is known for its distinctive flavors and ingredients, with dishes that differ from the food commonly associated with central and southern Thailand.
A traditional Thai dinner in Chiang Mai is not only about the food. The atmosphere, presentation, music and cultural performances all form part of the experience. Guests can relax at their table, enjoy the traditional surroundings and discover another side of Thai culture that is deeply connected to the history of northern Thailand.
Experience Authentic Lanna Culture
Chiang Mai is widely associated with Lanna culture, the distinctive cultural heritage of northern Thailand. The evening provides an opportunity to experience elements of this heritage through traditional food, music, costumes and dance.
The Chiang Mai Khan Toke dinner and dance show is particularly popular with visitors who want to combine dinner with cultural entertainment. Traditional performers present a selection of dances inspired by northern Thai traditions, accompanied by traditional music and instruments.
The colorful costumes, graceful movements and traditional music create an enjoyable atmosphere throughout the evening. For first-time visitors to Chiang Mai, the traditional Lanna dance performance offers an easy and entertaining introduction to the cultural heritage of northern Thailand.
Traditional Northern Thai Dance Performances
During the evening, enjoy a variety of traditional Thai dance performances representing the cultural traditions of northern Thailand. The performances are designed to showcase the elegance, music and artistic traditions associated with the Lanna region.
You may see dancers wearing beautiful traditional costumes performing carefully choreographed movements accompanied by traditional northern Thai music. The combination of dinner and live cultural entertainment makes this more than simply an evening meal.
For couples, families and private groups, the Chiang Mai dinner and cultural show provides an opportunity to enjoy a relaxed evening together while experiencing an important part of local culture.
A Relaxing Evening Experience
After spending the day exploring Chiang Mai temples, markets and attractions, the Khan Toke dinner provides a comfortable way to spend your evening. There is no need to plan a complicated restaurant reservation or arrange separate transportation to a cultural show.
With private hotel transfers in Chiang Mai, your evening can begin and end conveniently at your accommodation. Your private transportation allows you to enjoy the evening without worrying about driving, parking or finding transportation after the performance.
The experience is suitable for travelers staying in Chiang Mai hotels, couples looking for a romantic cultural evening, families traveling with children and private groups who want to experience northern Thai traditions together.
Discover Northern Thai Cuisine
Food is an important part of the Khan Toke cultural experience. Traditional northern Thai cuisine has its own character and is an essential part of the region's identity.
A Khan Toke meal allows visitors to sample several northern Thai flavors during one evening. Depending on the dinner venue and menu, traditional dishes may include northern-style curries, vegetables, meat dishes, chili-based dips and other regional specialties.
The meal is served in the traditional Khan Toke style, creating a relaxed and social dining experience. It is an excellent opportunity to discover Northern Thai food in Chiang Mai while enjoying traditional entertainment.
Perfect for Couples, Families and Private Groups
The Chiang Mai Evening Khan Toke Dinner & Dance Private Tour is suitable for many types of travelers. Couples can enjoy a special evening together, families can introduce children to Thai culture through music and dance, and groups can share a traditional dinner in a relaxed setting.
Because the experience is arranged as a private Chiang Mai evening tour, it offers greater comfort and convenience than arranging several separate activities independently.

Customer Testimonials
Yaowarat Bangkok Food Tour
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This food tour was one of the highlights of our visit to Bangkok! We booked through Phuket Travel Store, and everything was perfectly arranged from start to finish. Our guide was excellent—friendly, informative, and full of interesting stories about Bangkok's Chinatown and its amazing food scene. We sampled a fantastic variety of authentic dishes at local eateries and street food stalls, all of which were delicious. The portions were generous, the pace was relaxed, and the experience felt very authentic. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Bangkok. Booking through Phuket Travel Store made everything easy, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience!
Excellent company for airport transfers & excursions
We booked x2 transfers and the hong by starlight tour a few months before our holiday. Communication was quick and informative, and when we arrived to Thailand, kept regulaly informed by whats app. Transfers were alll on time, with clean and very good sized transport. However the highlight of our whole holiday was the John Gray Sea Canoes trip. A full day out with absolutely stunning scenery, we were allocated a private guide per x2 passengers who were so friendly and informative, taking photos and pointing out wildlife when out on the canoes. The food onboard was the best we have ever had on a boat trip, the coconut milk pudding with rainbow tapioca balls was deemed the best dessert ever by the kids! Making the kratong and floating it at sunset was a beautiful event and the lit up bioluminence after dark in the caves was again a memory we will all trwasuee forever. If you're going to book one trip, make it the John Gray Canoes - you wont regret it!
Excellent day!
Excellent day by boat to visit the 4 islands, the guide was super friendly and welcoming. The day was rhythmic but lorgic with 4 islands to visit! And end around 2:30 pm so it’s rather nice to return quietly to the hotel not too late! Nice discovery, I recommend!
Wir wollten zu Zweit relativ kurzfristig einen Ausflug von Khao Lak zu den Similan Islands buchen. Dies privat. Es wurden alle Hebel in Bewegung gesetzt, dass wir 3 Tage später diesen wunderbaren Ausflug machen konnten. Dies war unter den gegebenen Umständen nicht einfach, da Peak Season war und es fast keine Boote mehr hatte, welche gebucht werden konnten. Die Kommunikation mit der Agentin Apple war perfekt. Wir waren immer auf dem neusten Stand. Anpassungen, welche wir noch vorgenommen haben, wurden immer sofort gemacht. Der Ausflug selbst war extrem gut organisiert. Alles hat von A-Z bestens funktioniert. Für mich ist Phuket Travel Store eine klare Empfehlung wert.
