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.

We had such a great experience with our tour guide, Banana! 🍌 He was funny, friendly, and very informative throughout the whole tour. He explained the history, culture, and local traditions really well, which made the experience even more meaningful and interesting. What we appreciated the most was how caring and attentive he was to all the tourists. He always made sure everyone was comfortable, safe, and enjoying the tour. His energy and sense of humor made the whole day more fun and memorable. Thank you, Banana, for making our Chiang Mai tour such a wonderful experience! Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Very insightful 1/2 day tour with Tour Guide Mew Mew. Went to Wat Umong, No 39 Cafe, Hmong Doi Pui Village and Wat Doi Suthep. I like the way she explained the history of the WAT we visited, calmly and soothing. Thanks for the recommendation on Chum Kitchen too! The food is good and we love your recommendation.

It was incredibly fun. You could tell that the tour guides were very knowledgeable about the animals, and safety was also a top priority. The group size was just right, not too big. Everything was explained very well, and all our questions were answered. The price-performance ratio was also excellent. A truly unique experience that everyone should try at least once.

If you're visiting Chiang Mai, you should definitely try a Muay Thai class! It's a truly unique and exhilarating experience! I booked a group class on Klook a day in advance, thinking it would be less awkward with more people, but I still ended up making a fool of myself. The class started at 9 AM and finished at 10:30 AM, lasting a total of one and a half hours. For the first ten minutes or so, the head coach, Mark, led us through stretching, warm-ups, and jogging around the ring. The Thai coach spoke English, and everyone understood him. Since I was the only Chinese person there, my reactions were a bit slower than others, but I managed to get through the class despite some fumbling. After the warm-up, the head coach started wrapping our hands. After he wrapped one hand, he asked me how it felt. I said it was too tight, so he loosened it for me. But after he wrapped the other hand, I still felt it was too tight. He smiled helplessly and had to loosen that one too. I thought maybe the hand wraps for Muay Thai needed to be tight to protect the hands! But after the class, my hands were covered in marks, haha. Luckily, I didn't get injured. After wrapping our hands, the head coach had us put on gloves and started teaching us basic moves. After each move, he'd have us practice in pairs, repeating until we mastered the basics. My training partner was the assistant coach, "Ice." I often made mistakes because I was too nervous, like punching with my left hand and forgetting to guard with my right. He would tell me that if I didn't guard, someone would "bang" and hit me. Although the assistant coach also told me not to be nervous and just enjoy it, I always had that "good student" mindset, wanting to do my best, which just made me more flustered. In the end, I made the assistant coach laugh. He even started guarding when he should have been punching and punching when he should have been guarding. Seeing how nervous I was, he even jokingly threatened to hit me hard. I quickly waved my hands, "Nonono! You will hurt me! No!" He saw me frowning in fear and burst out laughing. Then we couldn't continue training; we were both bent over laughing. I guess that's my secret weapon in a fight! Making my opponent laugh until they're exhausted, and then winning without a fight. After a 90-minute trial class, I was completely exhausted. My hands hurt from the wraps, and my feet hurt from kicking. Even though I was hitting people, punching sandbags, and kicking tires, I was sore as if I had been beaten up. But it was so much fun and exhilarating! Life experience +1
