Let Tuk Tuk Safari take you out for dinner. Join us for a meal at a bustling evening food market where hordes of hungry locals pick up their takeaway dinners!
Take an evening ride past the Victory Monument to visit a popular local evening food market to explore the interesting, traditional Lao food on offer. Select some delicious dishes to try (we can help you choose if you can’t decide) and sample some local snacks. Then head downtown, via That Luang stupa (the perfect evening photo opportunity), with a stop at our favourite coconut ice-cream shop. Next stop is a well-known intersection downtown that becomes thriving roadside food, dessert and drinks market at night. You can try hot soy milk, fresh juices, and other unusual local beverages such as rosella or longan drinks or sample a Lao-style roti with banana, condensed milk or chocolate. Take a seat at one of the stalls and enjoy your Lao treats whilst watching the bustling market around you. Head back home satisfied and knowing so much more about Lao food and culture.
