Nop was amazing! He customized our itinerary and took such good care of us. Cracking jokes and explaining stories and history in such an entertaining way, my kids fell in love with him. Very comfortable van and he brought us pumpkin treats that his wife made for us. We packed a lot into our tour but we never felt rushed. And the rustic local restaurants he brought us to had the best food! Oh, and the blue ice cream at the Blue Temple? Delicious!
We will definitely hire Nop (pronounced Nope) directly for any/all tours when we come back to Thailand!

This trip was so great. Our driver, Peter, was so kind. He explained the temples, knew the best place to stand for photos and was always willing to take our picture. We did the Karon village, hot springs, White Temple, Blue Temple, Golden Triangle and took a boat to Laos, very long day but Peter made sure we got to see everything we wanted to see. He even knew the best spot for coconut ice cream!

It was great to have a customizable experience to visit Chaing Rai. Nop was a great guide and an excellent driver which is important in Thailand. The car was clean and comfortable and he took the time to let me explore the temples at my own pace. He is knowledgeable about the area and the sights. Would happily recommend.

Mr. Nop was a wonderful guide. We visited the White Temple, the Blue Temple, Golden Triangle, and took a boat ride to Laos, where we tried some specialty liquor and did some shopping. We enjoyed all that Nop taught us and showed us. Highly recommended.

Toni_S, Jan 2026
This was a wonderful tour and our tour guide Nop was absolutely wonderful! He was very knowledgeable about all the sights we visited, he took some great photos of us, he served as a negotiator for anything we were interested in and he is a very fun person. We talked almost the entire trip. I’m vegetarian and he took us to a wonderful restaurant that served vegetarian food. I really enjoyed the restaurant they grew all their own food onsite and they let us walk around their garden. You can’t go wrong with this tour.

Karen_E, Jan 2026
An excellent full day out from Chiang Mai, our driver and tour guide, Mr Sumrit, was fabulous. The car was very comfortable and we were very well looked after by our guide- giving us snacks and treats during the day, and taking lots of photos of us on the trip. We were collected from our hotel at 7.20am and returned at 8pm, so it’s a full day out.
We chose the White Temple, Blue Temple, Golden Triangle, House of Opium museum and the Mekong River trip. All worthy of a visit…. The white temple is beautiful! Golden triangle. House of opium and Mekong River all link together in Thai history.
Recommended trip!

Unbelievable experience private tour is the way to go. Be ready it’s ~13-14 hours there is so much to see, having a private tour was comfortable, intimate, our driver was professional, fun, and a great photographer! Incredibly grateful he drove us to and from safely - transportation was comfy and clean great to relax in after a super long day and long drive back to our hostel. 10/10 experience we highly recommend.

A brilliant day with Nop. We visited the white and blue temple, the big Buddha, the waterfall cafe and hotspots and Singha park - all in one day!
Nop was knowledgable, friendly and great fun. Would recommend as a great immersion into Chiang Mai!

Our driver came in an immaculately clean SUV, and helped and guided us superbly. He answered all our questions and taught us a bit of the history and culture of the countries and places we visited. There were plenty of breaks of bathrooms and he even helped guiding my wife’s wheelchair through the white temple. She had sprained her hip and needed to sit often so this was essential to us. He even bought us some real coconut ice cream to try!
The White temple had a wheelchair we could borrow. Most of the other areas we visited, blue temple, tea plantation, Lolita cafe were easily accessible. The boat ride on the Golden triangle was not wheelchair accessible but my wife could walk with a cane to the boat. The temples were quite impressive and even though we were in high season, it wasn’t crazy crowded. In most of the temple complex, you can walk around wearing whatever, just going inside the main building you had to take off shoes, and have shoulders and knees covered. All in all, this was a highlight of our time in North Thailand and although it went from 7am to 10pm it was definitely worthwhile and enjoyable. BTW keep some 5 THB coins for the bathroom at Blue temple and bring tissue pack for bathroom.

I would have given this tour more than 5 stars if I could. Highly recommend our guide, Mr. Nop, who is really friendly and very knowledgeable about all the places. We traveled with a 3 year old kid, and they sent a car with a child seat. You cannot go wrong with this tour and with Mr. Nop! They also customized the tour according to our interests. Thank you for this unforgettable experience.

Elizabeth_M, Dec 2025
Chris was such an amazing driver and guide. He spent his entire day with us and was extremely helpful in helping us plan the day out based on how busy the sites were. He was patient as we asked to pack as much as possible into one day. We really appreciated his thoughtfulness and willingness to take group photos of us along our journey - he took photography classes so every photo was beautiful!
On a small side note - do not expect to go to Laos during this tour. We read the description as a boat ride into Laos and possible passport stamp but actually it is an informational river tour departing and returning to Thailand’s port.

Very glad that you guys enjoyed our guide flexible tour services. And thank you so much for taking the time to write this kind review 🙏🙏👋

Amazing experience! Mr Nop was a great guide-he spoke good English, took great care of us and was an excellent driver. He made the trip a 10/10!
The white and Blue temples and visiting Laos were the ones I was most excited about but Lalitta Cafe and Lit Buddha exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend

Lorenzo_A, Nov 2025
The weather was sunny and Tono was a fantastic guide! He shared fascinating stories and captured stunning photos we’ll treasure forever. Our chosen itinerary was perfectly paced — relaxed, never rushed and fully flexible to our expectation. Vehicle was spacious and well maintained. Lunch at the beautiful Lalitta Café was sumptuous and affordable. It was a full day, yet completely worth it. Absolutely recommend taking this personalised tour, 10/10 experience!

Thank you lovely guests Hope you have a smooth and enjoyable ongoing holiday 🙏🙏👋
Olivette_F, Oct 2025
Traveled to 3 beautiful temples, amazing views and Nop was a very informative tour driver. He supplied water and when it rained at the Golden Triangle he had umbrellas for us. He even stopped beside the road to take a picture of some water buffalo.

Thank you lovely guests for your kind review on your tour experience and guide Mr. Nop ❤️❤️
