Highlights were the nature walk and coffee stop!
Tiktok guided the tour for us and it was a good time! Good pacing, not too rushed and not too slow. We got pretty lucky with the weather as the rainy season is starting late May. No visibility due to fog at Doi Inthanon, but this is expected this time of year and it added to the ambiance for what was the highlight of the trip for me which was the Ang Ka nature walk. The coffee stop at the village was also another highlight. I enjoyed learning about the nature and culture from Tiktok and we even saw a rainbow at the waterfall!

Fun experience
The experience was great from the time they picked me up to drop off at my hotel. Stopping at the market to shop was fun and I was able to pick up some spices to bring home. The cooking instructor was funny and did a great job getting everyone involved and accommodated people with allergies. Everything was so good and I learned a lot. My favorite was the Khao Soi.

This was a wonderful...
This was a wonderful experience! Our guide Tong was so helpful and knowledgable and he really made the day special. Also our trek guide Mr Cher showed us so many things we would never have noticed, including a few ‘magic tricks’ from nature. Highly recommended.

Book this tour! Ask for Tong!
My wife and I had the best day in Chiang Rai, and maybe the best tour we've ever booked with Viator! The temples were absolutely incredible, once-in-a-lifetime, but what (or should I say who) made the day for us was our guide, Tong! He was hilarious, engaging, beyond courteous, incredibly accommodating, very knowledgeable, and he's practically a professional photographer. It wouldn't have been the same experience without him! Book this tour! Ask for Tong!

Tour with the best.
A wonderful way to experience Chiang Rai. Peter, our guide, was a wonderful conversationalist, possessed a wealth of knowledge about the various temples we visited and extremely accommodating and sensitive to our needs. Also, he was an ultra safe driver and his vehicle was clean and comfortable. I would highly recommend this tour and request Peter!

Worth getting up for.,
Beautiful way to spend our morning in Chiang Mae. James was a wonderful tour guide, giving us all the information about the temples and the monks. We didn’t get the best sunrise but listening to the monks chant first thing in the morning made up for the clouds hiding the sun. The Alms giving was super cool. My husband lovingly called it tricker treating for monks but really we both found it very rewarding to give food to them and receive a blessing in return. James brought all the food we gave to the monks but we also brought some fruit given to us at our hotel. Highly recommend this experience.

Amazing day
Amazing expirience! We booked a private tour and were alone with the elephants all day. We walked them, fed them and bathed them. Elephants were calm and happy and eating a lot!! The elephants freely decided the pace and we followed them. We will never forget this day!

Nammiiz was a great guide...
Nammiiz was a great guide and very good with keeping up communication. We had information from her beforehand about our hotel pickup and she made sure to keep us on track all day and to let us know when we needed to be back at each meet up site. We had a mixed group and she spoke two languages seamlessly with different members of our group! Doi Inthanon is a beautiful experience, but unfortunately the smoky season made it hard to see any scenery at the top. Would recommend visiting in another season.

It was a long day however, it was really fun and exciting tour. Boon was our guide and he explained a lot on the buddihsm and mediation as well as on the temples visited. Also gave tips on how and where is a good photo spots as well as help us take our family photos. All in all it was really great, fun tour.

Great day!
Mumu was a great guide. She was funny, informative and very responsive to all of our needs. It was a bit chillier on the mountain top than I expected but it was beautiful and the lunch was exceptional. All in all it was a fun and informative nature day.
