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 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!

I made good use of the free time in the evening for sightseeing. The duration was just right, not too long and not too short. It was very convenient that after the tour, I could be dropped off at a dinner location instead of being taken back to the hotel. The guide was also very kind and provided clear explanations, which was excellent.

Our guide Ekachai is friendly and fun to hike with! We stayed out of the main city and in the mountains so I was a little worried about transport but Ekachai was able to arrange pick up/drop off directly from our accoms with an additional fee. He also brought us to different route then he usually does, so we ended up hiking for 5hours with many scenic view points and gained lots harvesting tips! Will do again if I ever come back! :) Do remember to bring lots of sugary snacks - you will need them!

First, let me say a big thanks to the Klook staff.
For some strange reasons, I did not receive the vehicle number and meeting time confirmation. Feeling dejected, I texted Klook and received a quick reply.
The staff was kind and managed to resolve the issue even though I liaised after 9pm.
If not for this Klook staff, we might have missed this class.
We did a pit stop to the market & met our jovial chef who went through the cooking items that we wil be used later.😀.
My chosen menu:
Tom Yum Goong, Pad Thai, Khao Soi and Thai milk tea. Each of us cooked our own dish!
All the ingredients are very fresh everything was clean and organised.
This class also allowed us to meet some lovely cooking mates. :)
The chef was patient, friendly and always kept a lookout.
If i had to really nitpick, we didnt have enough time to take pictures of the beautiful garden!
We thoroughly enjoyed this activity and i will highly encourage you to try it too!

The cooking class was amazing, and our guide was absolutely fantastic! 😍 Everything was fun, delicious, and a great experience. Just one important tip: don’t go too crazy with the chili, even if you love spicy food! 🌶️🔥 Thai spice levels are no joke… your taste buds might be brave, but your mouth will regret it! 😂 Highly recommend this experience!

Teacher Jumpee was extremely warm and took great care of us along the way. We were able to harvest fresh vegetables like basil and lemongrass directly from the farm to cook with. We chose to make curry soup, and amazingly, we started by grinding the curry paste from scratch, which was a truly novel experience. The Tom Yum soup was also simply delicious; using the teacher's special seasoning recipe, it tasted exacty like the ones served in restaurants.

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.
