We had a wonderful day at Doi Inthanon with our guide, Nancy, and our driver, Hero.
We started at beautiful Mae Klang Waterfall and also visited Wachirathan Waterfall, stopped for a beautiful view over rice fields, and visited the summit of Doi Inthanon, the highest point in Thailand. I especially enjoyed the wooden nature trail through the misty forest. Nancy explained how moisture collects in the trees and eventually feeds the waterfalls below, which made the walk much more interesting.
The King and Queen Pagodas were impressive even though the mist limited the views, and the interiors were stunning. I also really enjoyed walking through the Karen village, where we saw a woman weaving, people building a house by hand, and other aspects of everyday village life before tasting locally grown tea and coffee.
Nancy was knowledgeable throughout the day and very good at explaining the history, culture, and nature of the places we visited. More importantly, she paid attention to the people in her group and adjusted to what they needed. When I was having some difficulty with the walking, she was exceptionally kind and helpful.
Hero was also excellent and very accommodating, even holding an umbrella for us in the rain. Their thoughtfulness really showed at the end of the day. As we were discussing where they should drop me off, I mentioned that I needed to find a pharmacy but didn't know of one near my hotel. I wasn't actually asking them to take me to one, but before I knew it, Hero had spotted a pharmacy along our route and stopped for me. Nancy came inside with me and helped with translation, and Hero waited for us. They then drove me directly to my hotel.
Nancy and Hero were excellent hosts as well as guide and driver. Their knowledge, flexibility, and genuine attention to their guests made this a memorable day and a tour I would highly recommend.

Maggie from WanderSiam was absolutely fantastic showing us around in perfect English. This trip is a must for anyone visiting Chiang Mai. But bring warm clothes and a rain jacket. It can be very cold and rainy up in the mountains.
Our family really loved this daytrip.
This company is very well organized, a top tip !

This was a wonderful full day tour. Our guide was informative and very pleasant. As with many Viator tours this was well paced and had a small group size. We really enjoyed all the stops and it gave us a great day in nature, culture and great lunch stop.

It's great to know that the combination of nature, culture, and a delicious lunch made for a memorable experience. Thank you for joining us, and we hope to welcome you again soon!
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!

Response from Host, May 2026
We are very happy to hear the tour met your expectations. Thank you for traveling with us and for taking the time to share your thoughts.
We had a good day with Tik at the National Park. Eventually it was a private trip, due to low season only for the two of us. We took our time to visit the summit and the pagodas and the guide provided all the necessary information. Heavy rain in the afternoon required careful driving back but everything went well. All in all it was a good day.

This is a fabulous opportunity to spend some time in the mountains, breathe in the beauty of waterfalls marvel at the architecture honoring Thai royalty and .eet some residents of a Karen tribe village. The guide, Tic and our driver, were friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. I HIGHly recommend this tour. It does not disappoint!!

Some reviewers caution against these day-long tours, warning that you rush through a lot of things and don't have time to linger. This was not my experience at all. Yes, it was a long day, and yes it was a lot of driving. But the mountain and vistas were stunning, and the side trips were all enjoyable, unrushed, and ultimately even uncrowded. Our driver and guide were helpful, friendly, and attentive and the ride was cool and comfortable. More than worth the day.

Thank you very much for your wonderful review, Eliot!

Thank you again for joining us, and we hope to welcome you back on another tour in the future!
Tic was an excellent guide. He was informative and very nice. I highly recommend this highly comprehensive tour. We experienced beautiful waterfalls, amazing temples, and enjoyed a coffee farm and village experience. The nature trail walk at the national park was very enjoyable. Thank you Tic.

Sawadee kha Gregg,
Thank you for your wonderful review. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour and the company of our guide. Your kind words will certainly be shared with our team.
A very well structured trip with a great guide. Everything was delivered as stated on the itinerary. Our young guide Brian ( G. Bright) was knowledgeable, friendly and always willing to answer any questions we had. It was nice to feel the cooler air at the top of the mountain. At each stop Brian gave a description and background to where we were and then gave us time to look around at our own pace. The driver was safe and considerate ensuring that we got from place to place smoothly. We would highly recommend this trip.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for your amazing review! We’re thrilled to hear that Bright made such a positive impact on your experience. We hope you’ll join us again on your next visit to Thailand!
Great day trip outside of Chiang Mai to visit the highest point of Thailand at 2,500m! Local village visit includes coffee roaster and other handmade products.

If you want to go for a trip to Doi Inthanon, please keep in mind that all those trips look the same.
Every now and then you wonder oh is this another scam or what.
We were driven to the restaurant, where our guide took our orders instead of staff and they had about 200 dishes in menu. We ordered something with chicken and they brought dishes, where 2 of them had nearly no meat only breading and other man ordered some soup and he also lacked meat. Nothing was mentioned about some missing products.
We didn't really want to eat there in the first place, but we had no other choice (there were better places by walking distance).
Guide didn't have too much knowledge so it was more reading the info provided by attractions.
I don't recommend this trip at all.
Albo they were 30 minutes late for pickup.

Sawadee kha Robert,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the Doi Inthanon tour did not meet your expectations.
Most travelers really enjoy visiting Doi Inthanon National Park, but we understand that experiences can be different for each traveler. We also apologize that the restaurant chosen for lunch was not to your liking and for the late pickup in the morning.
Thank you again for your comments and we hope you had a wonderful time in Thailand!
It was a great experience, travelling not so congested roads to hilly and scenic areas of Chiang Mai. Margaret did an excellent job keeping everyone well informed. Plenty of drinking water. Nice wayside restaurant for lunch and considerate coffee/toilet breaks. Due credit must go to our driver too for his deciplined driving. We are very glad we did this tour.

Really enjoyed this tour. Can’t recommend it enough! Spent quite a long time shortlisting tours from Viator and GYG and eventually decided to go with this one…. and I’m VERY GLAD we did. I really wanted a tour that covered all the usual stops for Doi Iinthanon but also included 2 waterfalls. Thats exactly what we got! Both were absolutely breathtaking. All the other stops were definitely worth visiting too but the village we were taken to at the end of the tour was probably one of the highlights of our Chiang Mai trip. Pick up from the hotel was punctual, the driver was polite and drove very safely and carefully… the tour guide Margiret, was delightful and always making sure that we were comfortable and taken care of. She gave us a lot of insight into Thai culture, religion, history and rural life. There was 4 of us on the tour in total… felt more like a private tour (during high season)… don’t hesitate - book this!

It's enjoyable tour with very easy walks to waterfalls and through short mountain trails. June isn't the best time to expect clear view at twin pagodas, but still it was nice. Our guide Jane was very helpful and friendly. Don't miss out on this amazing tour when you're in Chiang Mai

Thank you for sharing your experience! We're over the moon knowing you had such a wonderful time on our tour!
It was a nice worthwhile day trip. Our guide Jane was great and very friendly. Van ride to/from was comfortable, it is a bit of a ride. Waterfalls were nice and extremely easy to access from the road, really no hike at all. Highest point was fine, the twin temples were the star of the show. Nice views, though some clouds reduced the view a bit.
