    This was a good way to...

    Y_C, May 2026
    This was a good way to see another side of Thailand - and our guide (Yoleangphun) was very good and knowledgeable. The tour started with a waterfall, then a trek where we saw more waterfalls and some local wildlife, then lunch and finally the temples.

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Thank you for your kind review. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the waterfalls, nature trek, wildlife, and temple visits. We truly appreciate your support and hope to welcome you again on another adventure in Thailand.

    Great day out, guide could engage more.

    suzettel, Jan 2026
    I was picked up promptly from my hotel, however we never stopped at 7-11 on the way (as stated on the itinerary) we headed straight to the first waterfall which was about a 90 minute journey. The van was completely full and think we could have benefited having a larger vehicle. Our guide was friendly however and let us know the order of the day. The waterfall was beautiful and we were able to spend sometime walking up and taking pictures. We then moved on to the nature trail where we had a nature guide, however we weren’t given any information or facts whilst on the walk at all, the tour guide didn’t really engage unless we engaged with them. Despite this I enjoyed the trail and walking along waterfalls etc. I would highly recommend wearing trainers and comfortable clothing, shorts etc and being mosquito spray. We had lunch which was ok, nothing spectacular and then went to a local market where we could sample some goods and purchase, all the vendors there were friendly. We then went to the highest point in Thailand, which was busy with people trying to capture photos but didn’t have to wait too long, again no information was forthcoming. Our final stop was at the national park which was absolutely beautiful, it’s a huge space and the buildings and the gardens were really fantastic. I was really disappointed that we hardly spent any time here at all, maybe 30 mins which should have been at least an hour considering the amount of ground to cover and to take it all in. We left and I ended up back at my hotel about 45 mins earlier than suggested so we could have stayed at the park for longer. Despite all this, I would recommend as you do get to see many beautiful things, I just hope that your guide is more engaging than ours and I was lucky to have a great group too!

    Thank you for your detailed feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the waterfalls, trail, market, and national park. We sincerely apologize for the missed 7-11 stop, limited guiding information, and short time at the park. Your comments help us improve vehicle planning, guiding, and timing. We appreciate the recommendation and hope to welcome you again.

    Chaing Mai must do

    Lee_C, Dec 2025
    Our guide Mint was the best. We have taken 5 ( English speaking) tours through various providers during our first 5 weeks in Thailand. Our guide Mint was the first one that we could hear, understand, and while doing walk about, waited for the whole group to catch up before providing very informative information. There were many and varied stops on this tour so boring it was not. The hike portion was totally amazing..

    Response from Host, Jan 2026

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that your guide made such a positive difference and that the explanations were clear, informative, and well paced for the whole group. It’s great to know you enjoyed the variety of stops and the amazing hike. We truly appreciate your kind words!

    Nice trip (best outside the rainy season)

    sacha_d, Jul 2026
    Nice trip, walk in the jungle and between the rice fields was very nice. Coffee stop in a mountain village was rather commercial, nothing was told about the coffee (which they had roasted themselves). We were there in July (rainy season) and on the doi inathanon you could see nothing, only clouds of rain and cold. Our guide told us that during the rainy season this was the case every day. That was a downer. You couldn't even see the pagodas because of the fog. But all in all had a nice trip.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Hartelijk dank voor uw beoordeling en voor het delen van uw ervaring. We zijn blij om te horen dat u de wandeling door de natuur leuk vond en al met al toch een leuke trip heeft gehad. Het spijt ons dat de koffiestop niet zo informatief was als verwacht. Deze stop wordt lokaal beheerd door de dorpsbewoners zelf en is een manier om de lokale gemeenschap te ondersteunen en extra inkomsten voor hen te creëren. Hierdoor kan de uitleg soms wat beperkt zijn, maar we nemen uw feedback mee om te kijken hoe we de communicatie daar kunnen verbeteren. Wat betreft Doi Inthanon: in juli, tijdens het regenseizoen, is de natuur vaak erg groen en zijn de watervallen mooi, maar op de hogere delen van de berg en bij de pagodes kunnen mist, regen en beperkt zicht helaas voorkomen. Voor reizigers die vooral hopen op heldere berguitzichten, bieden de koelere en drogere maanden meestal een grotere kans op goed zicht. We waarderen uw eerlijke feedback zeer en hopen u in de toekomst opnieuw te mogen verwelkomen.

    Experience not to be repeated

    AliceAnna_N, Apr 2026
    Experience not recommended, I would not repeat it. The guide explained nothing, useless his presence with incomprehensible English. Exaggeratedly high price for what is offered. The 400 baths to be paid separately at the end are mandatory. We do not understand what we paid, no service was provided. Lunch was really scarce and there was no demonstration of how coffee was made in Karen village. We were left completely alone to taste a few cups of coffee. Beautiful only the walk in the natural park but you can get there in other ways.

    Grazie per il suo feedback. Ci dispiace sapere che l’esperienza non ha soddisfatto le sue aspettative. Il costo aggiuntivo di 400 THB corrisponde al biglietto d’ingresso al parco nazionale, non incluso in questa opzione e pagato in loco, come indicato nei dettagli del tour. Per quanto riguarda la guida e l’organizzazione, apprezziamo sinceramente i suoi commenti e li condivideremo con il nostro partner e il team per migliorare la comunicazione, il servizio e l’esperienza complessiva. Il suo feedback ci aiuta a crescere e a migliorare.
