We had an awesome trip to Dantewada and Sticky waterfall. Koh, our tour guide was amazing. He was professional, kind and very considerate. He helped everyone taking a nice picture. It was a great experience. Recommend this to anyone coming to Chiang Mai to go for it.

What an Awsome day! Got 13 big fishes and 2 smaller ones during the tour. our guide Mio was so kind and helpful. I learn a lot from his hints and knowledge. They do their best to help us catch fish, they provided us with multiple rods to use at the same time to try to lure diferent fishes , with different baits, they bring so many different baits, very generous with this. And their coaching and service is really great. The food from the restaurant was delicious and their service friendly. If you like fishing, buy this, really fun and peaceful.

What a fantastic experience! This was my first time in Thailand, and I was impressed by how seriously they take safety for outdoor activities; the safety training was very thorough. The instructors constantly checked everyone's understanding. Rafting here is different from in China; it's more of a sport. You're not just sitting there enjoying the ride, but rather following the instructor's commands, with everyone on the team working together to navigate through each rapid turn. There were two safety guides leading the way, an instructor on every raft, and many staff members taking photos, which made for excellent service. Regarding the pickup, since my phone number couldn't be dialed, it was entirely thanks to our mutual understanding 😂 The driver showed up right on time at my accommodation, which I truly appreciate!

Overall it was a fantastic experience by our instructor Mimi. The sudden drop was a nice surprise. We get to see elephants and buffalos upclose as we raft pass them. The sight was amazing. Buffalos cooling inside the river stared at us as we passed them lol.

I was very pleased to find this is a cooperative run primarily with the aim of rescuing elephants who are unwanted or unable to be looked after by their owners. The local Karen tribespeople benefit through employment and sales of items to tourists. The interactions with the elephants could not be better with feeding bathing and patting encouraged. The guides speak excellent English and are keen to answer questions and share information. I stayed in the jungle lodge after my first day and found the peace and quiet wonderful after the hustle and bustle of Chiang Mai. The next morning was spent with mahouts feeding elephants and then a walk through the reserve to a scenic waterfall before lunch in a roadside cafe. Another waterfall then back to another reserve for a final interaction with elephants before a bus ride back to Chiang Mai. Every tourist I met over the two days was enthusiastic and enjoying every new experience.

Purchase a reservation in advance on Klook, and they will thoughtfully message you to arrange a time to pick you up at the hotel! The whole playing process was very happy and very safe. The coaches will guide you! After playing, there is a delicious lunch to enjoy! Highly recommended for families!

Absolutely five stars! Our guide, Mr. K, was incredibly professional! He proactively contacted us the day before the tour to let us know what to prepare. We started by taking a car to go ATV riding, which was a blast! The instructors were also very professional. You need to be a bit strong, otherwise, turning can be difficult. You'll get used to it after a while! I recommend wearing shorts, as there will be dust on the road, and you might get a little wet when crossing rivers. After that, we went rafting in an inflatable boat! The instructor was very playful 😆, splashing water on us from time to time. There was a spot in the middle where everyone could get out and swim, and the instructor even pulled me directly off the boat 😆! You can wear your own swimsuit; you will definitely get wet! For lunch, we went to a Thai restaurant for a family-style meal, which was delicious 😋 and a great opportunity to get to know the other group members! Afterward, we drove to the Sticky Waterfalls! You climb up from the bottom of the waterfall, and there are multiple routes. Be careful, as the green rocks can be slippery! You definitely need to wear shorts or swim trunks, as you will get wet. The climb takes about 30 minutes and is a good cardio workout! Overall, it's a highly recommended experience!

I don't usually leave tips or reviews, but I wanted to thank the Myanmar coach who taught us this time. He took such great care of my two daughters. Highly recommended!

What to know before visiting Chiang Mai Province

Things to Do in Chiang Mai

Night Bazaar

You can explore the Chiang Mai Night Bazaar for handmade goods, snacks, and easy evening walks. Many travelers come here for street food, small shops, and a relaxed night out. It’s one of the most visited attractions in Chiang Mai.

Wat Phra That Doi Suthep

You can ride up the mountain to visit Wat Phra That Doi Suthep by songthaew (red truck) or taxi from the city center. The temple is known for its views over central Chiang Mai. You can also climb the long staircase if you prefer, with detailed steps and gold details along the way.

Wat Phra Singh

Walk through Wat Phra Singh to see its halls and quiet corners. It's one of the most respected temples in Northern Thailand.

Wat Chedi Luang

Visit Wat Chedi Luang to see its large ancient structure in the middle of the city. The grounds are open for walking, and monk chat programs sometimes take place here.

Living Green Elephant Sanctuary

You can spend a peaceful half day learning about rescued elephants at the Living Green Elephant Sanctuary. You can feed them, walk with guides, and enjoy a slow, thoughtful visit.

Get your Living Green Elephant Sanctuary tickets through Klook ahead of time to make your trip easy!

Wua Lai Road

Enjoy food stalls, crafts, and music along Wua Lai Road on Saturday nights. You can try dishes like pad thai, northern Thai sausage, or vegetarian khao soi.

Tips before visiting Chiang Mai

1. Plan for the weather

Chiang Mai can be warm during the day, especially in March and April. Bring light clothes, drink water, and rest indoors if the sun feels strong. (Klook tip: You can walk into coffee shops or food courts to cool off.)

2. Visit temples with proper clothing

In most temples, you'll be asked to cover your shoulders and knees. Make sure to bring a light scarf or long shorts that work well. This will help you feel comfortable during longer walks.

3. Try local food with an open mind

Street markets offer dishes like khao soi, sticky rice, and northern Thai sausage. You can try small portions first if you’re unsure. Fresh produce and all the tropical fruits are also easy to find at local markets.

4. Learn simple transport options

Red trucks, taxis, and app-based rides like Grab will make moving around easy. Chiang Mai International Airport is close to the city, so transfers are quick. You can also rent a bike if you want to explore central Chiang Mai at your own pace.

5. Bring cash for markets

Many food stalls and small vendors prefer Thai baht rather than cards. Make sure to keep small bills for snacks, drinks, and simple gifts. This will make your visit to night markets and street markets smoother.
