Itinerary

Start your tour with morning pickup from your hotel in Chiang Mai and travel in an air-conditioned minivan to the south of the city.

Pass small villages, rice fields, and fruit orchards as you drive to Inthanon National Park in Jomthong District. Upon arrival at Doi Inthanon, visit Wachirathan waterfall, then go up the mountain to Mae Klang Luang village. In the village, taste fresh coffee from a farm, tour the village, and check out the rice field terrace.

Continue to the Royal Agricultural Project to see the flower gardens, vegetable and flower nursery, and the fish pond. Have lunch at the Royal Project's restaurant, which features healthy Thai fare made with fresh locally grown vegetables.

After lunch, take a guided walk on the Kew Mae Pan nature trail, covering about 2 miles (3 km) at a leisurely pace. Go through three types of forests: rain forest, semi-alpine, and rhododendron (blooming December-February) and look for rare bird species such as green-tailed sunbirds, flycatchers, and vivid niltava. Snack on the provided refreshments and drinks after your walk.

Continue driving up to the highest summit of Thailand at 8,415 feet (2,565 meters) above sea level where you view a shrine for one of the last kings of Chiang Mai and take a short walk along Angka Luang Natural Trail. If time allows on the way back, visit twin pagodas built for King Bhumibol Adulyadej and Queen Sirikit, and a market run by Hmong villagers.

The return drive to Chiang Mai can take up to two hours drive depending on traffic. Your tour ends with drop-off at your hotel in Chiang Mai in the early evening.

The absolute highlight of our Chiang Mai visit

John_B, Jan 2022
We really can't say enough good things about this trip. Our guide, Toi, was one of the most knowledgeable, well-spoken and kindest guides I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He provided a wealth of local knowledge and interesting contextual information as he thoughtfully guided us and looked after us all day. We were taken for a great photo opportunity at the start of the tour at Thailand's highest point, and then started the nature trail. It was tough going at times for our two small children but Toi was kind and supportive, taking breaks whenever we needed them and even providing a little bit of first aid and a quick snack :) He and the local guide helped us spot a range of wildlife, insects, interesting botanicals, and edible berries and flowers, which made the spectacular hike even more interesting and rewarding. After the trail, we went for a wonderful home-cooked lunch at the Loyalty Project sustainable farm and restaurant, a beautiful place, and then on to a tribal village where we enjoyed hand-ground coffee and learned about the more traditional way of life among the locals. We finished up at a roaring waterfall and then snoozed on the comfortable bus ride home. At all times we felt safe and all our needs were perfectly attended to. All in all an unforgettable trip, thank you Toi and Mr Li!
