Things to do in Wat Rong Khun (White Temple)

We had a great time on our Chiang Rai day tour! 🩵 The trip was well-organized, enjoyable, and very informative. Our guide (Raine) was friendly and knowledgeable, and we learned a lot about the history and culture of each place we visited. The temples were beautiful, and everything was explained clearly without feeling rushed. Overall, it was a memorable experience and definitely worth it. Highly recommended! ✨

Our tour guide, M, was very kind and dedicated, switching between Chinese and English to assist everyone in the group. Before the trip, pay close attention to the travel agency's messages. The day before departure, they will send an email with the updated meeting time; the one I received was different from what was initially booked. The car arrived exactly on time. 8:50 AM: Chiang Rai Hot Spring. The foot bath was extremely hot, so I could only dip my feet in briefly. 9:20 AM: Long Neck Village. There's a coffee shop on a hill next to the parking lot, offering distant views. The owner had difficulty communicating in English, so it's best to double-check your order. 11:30 AM - 12:40 PM: White Temple (Wat Rong Khun). It was breathtakingly beautiful, and the route design was very meaningful. Photography is not allowed inside the main hall. 12:50 PM: Lunch. It was a buffet with freshly made noodle soup, various Thai desserts, and sweet fruits. 1:50 PM - 2:30 PM: Blue Temple (Wat Rong Seur Ten). You can take photos with the large Buddha statue inside the Blue Temple. Outside, there's a row of vendors where you can buy souvenirs and snacks. 2:50 PM - 3:30 PM: Black House (Baan Dam Museum). This is an artist's private collection with a unique style. 4:30 PM - 5:40 PM: Golden Triangle Park (optional boat tour for 300 baht per person). We returned to Nimman Road at 10:00 PM, an hour later than the scheduled 9:00 PM. Thankfully, I had brought snacks for the journey. The streetlights along the route were quite spaced out, and the mountain roads were not very smooth, so I recommend that those prone to motion sickness take medication beforehand. Although the tour ended very late, the guide remained energetic and provided excellent service throughout.

My mum and I really enjoyed the full-day White & Blue Temple Cultural Tour. It was a wonderful experience with good service and the guide explained the culture and history very well. We learned a lot and truly enjoyed the whole trip.

Unfortunately, the tour started a bit outside the main area, which I found a little disappointing. Otherwise, I'm absolutely thrilled. The tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and explained a lot. He also answered questions promptly. He made a special effort to integrate everyone into the group and gave us some tips and information. The temples were also breathtaking, and I don't regret doing it. To top it off, our tour guide even gave us mini pineapples at the end.

I initially thought the price was so expensive but the moment I experienced it, I realized how worth it this tour was! The van that was assigned to us was like a VIP van with leather seats which made the long travel very much comfy. The tour guide, Danny, was so accommodating and kind. Grateful for him and his initiative to take photos of me as a solo traveler. I was also amazed that the stop in YAYO Cafè comes with a free drink per person. I tried to say no the the free drink as I was still full but they insisted that I have to order, so yeah 😂 and last but definitely not the least, the lunch was in an airconditioned buffet resto!! I would like to commend the Chiangmai Paradise Tour staff as well who respond to my inquiries via WhatsApp. Thank you for being patient in answering my questions and for being giving me the information that I need. Such an exceptional service! Highly recommended! Thank you for making this solo experience a whole lot more special.

we had a wonderful day trip with the famous 7 spots. The tour guide PING and the driver KEAR did a fantastic job always making sure we were well taken care of, introducing the places ahead of the time and showing us the tricks on how to see the places and where the best spots to take a picture! Kear was always cleaning the car and went out of his way to take our trip to another level! it was such great day and if we come to Chiang rai again we will book with them for another route!

The temple in Chiang Rai is absolutely beautiful. Our tour guide explained its history very well, which made the visit even more meaningful. We also had plenty of time to explore the temple grounds on our own. It was a wonderful experience and definitely worth visiting.

The tour guide was friendly and polite, fluent in both Mandarin and English. They provided detailed explanations of the history and background of the attractions. The driver drove smoothly and steadily. Friends traveling to Chiang Mai should definitely sign up for this activity to gain a deeper understanding of Northern Thai culture. The food quality was good, and most of our fellow travelers were from all over the world, so we all got along well. The best part was being able to admire the White Temple, Blue Temple, and the Long Neck Karen village. The villagers showcased traditional Northern Thai handicrafts, and the adorable smiles of the children in the village left a lasting impression on us.

Excellent all the way around. Literally nothing to complain about. Would book again. Great experience with a great guide and driver.
