Doi Suthep tours

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.

Pros: - patient, enthusiastic, informative, and hardworking tour guide - comfortable van with AC - timely pick up and drop off from our hotel - tour felt like the perfect length, not too long or short - 3 stops which are all so beautiful on their own - food is provided by the tour to offer to the monks Cons: - if you’re prone to motion sickness, take meds beforehand!

Nuttaya was absolutely the best guide. Never rushed us in exploring three different temples, was very informative, and super kind. I met her on a different tour but she offered to peel some longgan for me. If you are with her please please ASK RECOMMENDATIONS ON WHAT ARE THE BEST THINGS TO BRING BACK HOME. She is amazing. Tour starts early (pitch dark) but it is so beautiful. Let Nuttaya take your photos — literally the best guide a solo female traveler could have.

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.

It is an amazing tour. The guide picked up on time at the hotel. She also explained everything nicely. During my visit there was a full moon festive so it was very crowded. After all, it is trulyrecommended for those who want to visit and enjoy the beauty of Chiang Mai temples

The tour guide New is super professional and cute. He introduces a lot of knowledge and origins of Suthep Temple. The Miao Village recommends walking to the top of the mountain to drink coffee, but you have to pass a very ordinary and small museum along the way.

Because it rained for the entire 3-hour hike that day, pay extra attention to the trail conditions. However, regarding sections requiring hands and feet, I think children over 10 years old could also climb it if the weather is better. The guide will pay attention to the trail conditions along the way and clear obstacles in advance. The scenery is beautiful. If you want to spend half a day experiencing Chiang Mai's nature, it is highly recommended. We left the city at around 9:30 am and returned to the city at 3:30 pm. During that time, we first visited Doi Suthep Temple, then started the 3-hour hike, and finally ended at a cozy cafe with coffee and food. After resting for an hour, we drove back. It is recommended to bring mosquito repellent, a change of clothes, enough water, and a raincoat.

It was a REAL adventure!! Firstly, be aware that this tour is definitely NOT for everyone, especially for those who rarely exercise. However, for travelers who used to do casual hiking and biking (not necessarily mountain biking), and hope to have some adventures outside of Chiang Mai old town, don't hesitate, you will like this tour! Nice natural sceneries, meals both before and after the hike/ride, and friendly guides!:)
