Chiang Rai Mueang Chiang Rai One-Day Tour

didn’t realise the hike was through about 2h of dense jungle! was a bit challenging especially with the rainy season making the narrow paths very muddy and soft. plus the crazy mossies attacking us thru our clothing whenever we stopped moving. definitely need proper hiking attire, shoes, strong legs and a good sense of balance when doing this hike during the rainy season. Baht our guide was quite funny and very informative about the jungle flora and fauna. perhaps may have been good if he provided a bit more support to the weaker hikers especially during the more precarious parts of the trail. although the narrow paths made it difficult at times. lunch at the village was better than expected. we were too exhausted to walk much more after lunch, and thankfully they adapted the tour to have a pickup truck send us nearer the waterfall and then at the rice/corn fields.

We will keep a beautiful memory of this day of excursion. It was certainly sporty but the landscapes were worth it. And the guide took great care of us. We were treated to an excellent meal of several varied and tasty dishes on a terrace with a breathtaking view, a walk between the jungle, the bamboo forest, the waterfalls, a foot bath in the hot springs (large baths currently closed) and a souvenir gift that the guide carved in the bamboo the same day. Thank you Klook for this unforgettable experience and the friendliness of the people we met.

"I recently embarked on an unforgettable trekking tour in Chiang Rai, and I couldn't recommend it more! The scenery was breathtakingly beautiful, with lush green forests, rolling hills, and stunning vistas. What made this tour truly special, however, was the wealth of knowledge our guide shared with us about the local flora and fauna. We learned about the unique properties of various trees and plants, and even spotted some incredible wildlife along the way. The lunch break was a highlight, with a delicious meal served atop a scenic hill overlooking the surrounding countryside. And after working up a sweat, a refreshing swim in the nearby waterfall was the perfect way to cool off. I also appreciated the well-placed pitstops for drinks along the way, which ensured we stayed hydrated and energized throughout the trek. But what really made this tour stand out was the thoughtful touch of our guide, who took the time to craft beautiful bamboo cups and rings for us as souvenirs. It was a lovely gesture that added a personal touch to an already incredible experience. Overall, I highly recommend this trekking tour in Chiang Rai to anyone looking for a unique and enriching adventure. With its stunning scenery, knowledgeable guides, and thoughtful touches, it's an experience you won't soon forget!" 5/5 stars

This is a course that involves trekking all day. The trekking course was more diverse than I expected, and the view was great. The forest path felt like a jungle, and the tea fields that I saw while walking along the ridge, and the Lisu Aka Lahu village that I stopped by during the course were also fun. The Lahu village was especially full of energy and excitement. Lunch time was also impressive, but after shopping in the morning and going up, the guide and the villagers cooked for me, and it was really delicious. The guide was also very kind, and it was an unforgettable memory. This course is quite difficult, so it is recommended for those who enjoy trekking. Long pants, a long shirt, and comfortable shoes are essential^^

Highly recommended: Some equipment is needed to hike through the mountains, and shoes are very important. I decided to go on a whim and wore gym clothes, which was more difficult than I imagined. Tour guide: Very nice and helpful. Provided equipment: Free drinking water, and there are reasonably priced refueling stations where you can buy supplies. There is also a small cafe along the way. Scenery: Very beautiful, you can enter the waterfall up to your thighs. Hiking difficulty: This isn't a city walk; it's a real jungle hike. It's slippery on rainy days, so you'll need a pair of non-slip shoes. Itinerary: My Apple Watch recorded 7.2km, but I forgot to continue recording for a section, so it should be a bit longer.

guide: very knowledgeable & take care of you throughout. Even made a bamboo pole for us to trek easily, and at the end of the journey, gifted a handmade bamboo cup 🥰 difficulty of the hike:could be challenging and slippery if there’s rain. luckily the day was sunny for us. There is a fair amount of slopes to trek throughout the 9KM hike. Not alot but will be challenging for those with mobility issues. scenery: get to see various tribes, fruits trees, herbs plants and experience bamboo cooking! Lunch was delicious and amazing. You can also dip inside a waterfall if you like~

Tour guide: but is a very good tour guide. Along the way, he introduced us to many, many plants, picked spices for us to smell, and wild fruits for us to taste. He understood when we needed to rest, and although the whole trip was very long, I didn't feel tired. He made very exquisite bamboo cups for us and engraved our names on them in Thai. Hiking difficulty: It is a slightly challenging route. The rainforest is slippery, and some places are very steep. If you have done regular exercise before, such as fitness, running, dancing, or playing ball, then it will be a lot of fun for you. Scenery: Very beautiful Equipment provided: The guide provides us with water and bamboo sticks

Epic, adventurous, beautiful, lush and difficult 7km hike. Our guide, Baht, stopped to teach us various plants. The lunch in the traditional Lizu hut overlooking the valley was spectacularly delicious. The bugs weren't too bad with a little bug spray. Ensure your wear hiking shoes with good tread for the slippery (and sandy) rocks. You should definitely use a trekking pole for the steep declines.

Incredible experience among the bamboo forests. We had lunch in a village with a breathtaking view, visited a beautiful waterfall, and drank an espresso in the bamboo bar overlooking the jungle. Butinkaew was the best guide we could have asked for: friendly, engaging, and very knowledgeable. He let us taste the herbs and fruits of the jungle, explaining their uses. While we struggled to keep up with him during the 4-hour walk through the jungle, he carved beautiful tea cups for us from the bamboo branches collected along the way (he carved one for each of us as a souvenir). I highly recommend this experience to everyone!

This trek is more than just a hike—it’s a cultural immersion. With But’s guidance, the journey felt personal and enriching, blending nature, history, and human connection. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a meaningful adventure in Chiang Rai. I joined the Chiang Rai trekking tour by Coconut Tours, booked seamlessly through Klook, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of my Northern Thailand journey.
