It was an excellent experience. Our guide Tom explained the basics of Buddhism to us. Wat Pha Lat was closed due to meditation, so we visited Wat Umong.
I wanted to visit both Doi Suthep and Wat Pha Lat, and this tour package was perfect. From the meeting point to the drop-off in Old Town, everything was smooth. Thanks to the 'Tom and Jerry' duo, the trip was effortless and fun. The guide, Tom, was kind and shared interesting stories, making the tour even more enjoyable. The timing was spot on—visiting Wat Pha Lat just before sunset and staying at Doi Suthep from dusk until night allowed us to enjoy the scenery to the fullest. Highly recommended!
It was very good. The guide explained things diligently. I was the only person who booked, so I felt sorry and grateful that I got to ride in a big car alone. I think the guide said they had been working for about 3 months, but I don't remember their name. The way down was a bit rough and foggy, so it was a little scary. After it was over, they dropped me off at a market near the hotel.
We had a wonderful experience with this tour. Our guide was Danny who explained the history very Nicely. Helped us with photography as well. Both the Temples were so beautiful. it was worth it and more.
This is a great tour and highly recommend. From the first friendly greeting from our guide at the meet point, we felt welcome. We were driven to the temples in a comfortable van with our guide explaining the outline of the evening. When we arrived at the temples, he explained their history in excellent English. We would have missed much of their meaning if we had been on our own. We engaged in some activities which were fun and really made the trip special. If you are thinking of a tour of these mountain temples, choose this one.
I booked the Doi Suthep Wat Phra That + Wat Pha Lat temple evening tour, and thanks to P’Piano, it became so much more than just visiting beautiful sites. Yes, the temples are stunning but P’Piano’s knowledge, passion, and warmth transformed the experience into something truly incredible. She didn’t just point out historical facts; she shared the stories, beliefs, and little details you’d never notice on your own. From the meaning behind temple architecture to personal insights about Thai culture, everything she said made the places come alive. Wat Pha Lat and Wat Phra That felt magical with her explanations, and was far more meaningful because she helped us understand why it’s so sacred. She also paced everything perfectly, answered all our questions, and made sure everyone felt included. If you want more than just photos or if you want to actually understand and feel these sacred places, book this tour with P’Piano. She’s a gem. 🙏
I've met dozens of tour guides in various countries through Klook, My****, etc., but I've never had a guide as enthusiastic and informative as Art. This is my second week in Chiang Mai, and I hadn't heard anything about Thai temples or Myanmar-related content until this tour. Art explained Thai history and Buddhism so well that I understood everything. Art's guidance will be very helpful for future trips to Thailand. He also took photos diligently, and I had no difficulty communicating with him, even with my limited English. If there are other tours, I would love to meet that guide again. Highly recommend!
Great experience as this tour tries to avoid the really busy periods of the day. You get rewarding views of the sunset and the city lights. Guide also helped us understand the chanting ceremony taking place during our visit.
Amazing tour with guide Toon!!!! If I hadn't booked this tour, I would have just spent 5 minutes at each spot, so I was very satisfied, and it was a tour where I didn't regret spending a single penny. 1. The explanations were excellent. 2. The photos taken were fantastic. 3. We even received blessings from a monk, learned how to pray together, and had our fortunes read, among other things. It was incredibly beneficial and fun to do various activities beyond just sightseeing. Guide Toon was especially kind. Highly recommended!
We had Phonphon as our tour guide, who went out of his way to make sure everyone was doing well. He showed us great perspectives, and was always there to take photos with us or explain something about the history of the temples. Our travel group happened to be quite small with 6 people, so of course there was more time for each individual. The tour itself started on time, everything seemed professional and we had a great afternoon.
