Doi Suthep and Hmong Village Half Day Tour

The half day tour is good, not too long and not tiring. Guide, Mee is great, professional and can speak well in both languages, English and Mandarin. pick up at hotel and flexible in dropping us, a location along the way. Last stop, a temple high up in a mountain, the climb of 300 stairs was a good exercise and fantastic view of Chiang Mai city.

excellent tour, the guide was extremely nice and shared a lot of historic and cultural knowledge about the places visited. I got to try tradicional clothes from village people (it was around 60 baht) remember to bring cash if you want to try the locals food, coffee and wine. there's a lot of hand made stuff you can buy also. there's ATM but only in one place.

mixed of predominantly english and few Asian like us, tour guide is able to explain and share history of the place in simple mandarin, helping my mum with mobility issue to take escalator to suthep temple. enjoyed the half day tour. satisfied.

I got one more stop. We visit two temples, and a Village. Wat Phalet is a 700years old temple, and the pagoda seems very ancient. In Hill Tribes Village, I saw a lot of aboriginal people dress. And I give a young sister my Marathon Medal for gift.

Our English-speaking guide, Mr. Chai, provided a detailed explanation of the history and culture of Doi Suthep. We had ample time for sightseeing, and the half-day tour didn't feel rushed, which was great. For the return trip, we could be dropped off at a different location in the Old City, but we needed to inform them in advance. This flexibility was very convenient, as we weren't required to be dropped back at our hotel. Guide: Mr. Chai Attractions: Doi Suthep

Visiting to doi suthep is a must when travelling to chiang mai. Tour guide was good speaking in english sharing the history of doi suthep the beautiful temple. Hmong village is decent having the chance to see how village tribe live and selling their items. We also had the chance to try on many wine before purchasing back home!.

A just-OK tour. Kind of disappointed that the tour guide did not give much information about the places we visited but just dropped us here and there, then told us when we would meet again for the bus. The transfer service was nice though. The panoramic view to overlook Chiang Mai city at the temple could be even more amazing if the weather was better. The visit to the tribe was dull yet humble. In general, if you have abundant time to explore Chiang Mai, and you have seen the sites in old city or done many other outdoor adventures, then this tour could be a choice. Otherwise, this tour is just a way to kill your time.

The temple is beautiful but again with these places in Thailand they are swarming with tourists, so it can be hard to get the perfect picture. The journey up is on a winding mountain road so it can feel a bit queezy. The hmong village has a beautiful garden, which our guide bizarrely told us not to visit as its not the season for the flowers. However, ignore this and go visit and pay the extra w0 baht for the lovely views.

The tour itself was good - clean car, tour guide was good and safe and even provided umbrellas. The village was quite boring IMO, you are shepparded through a marketplace (walking up a mountain!!!) and end at a museum you need to pay to enter, then you’re left to your own devices. People with mobility issues would struggle with this tour given the village portion which was not an easy walk up a mountain!

value for money and time versus getting your own songtheaws along the way. it was a nice temple. time at hmong village was too short in my opinion as there were 2 flower gardens and a strawberry farm.
