Chiang Mai Province Day trips

Our guide Mr. Poppy was excellent! He was on time with the schedule and knowlegeable with the history/information of each places. As a solo traveller I had fun — from the New Elephant Home to Long Neck Village and culminating with a visit to the Bua Tong Waterfall. Mr. Poppy encourage me (us) to climb thru the waterfall I didn't expect it but luckily I'm prepared! Moreover, he takes good pictures and is prompt in sending those too. I would like to thank Mr. Poppy for being an exceptional tour guide. To add, he knows our names and is familiar of everyone.

I was very happy to participate in this tour. The day before departure, I called to confirm the vehicle, and the staff spoke English! (Though I'm not sure how to contact them if you don't have a Thai phone number.) I recommend listing your hotel as the pickup location; it's very convenient if the driver can pick you up directly! It's truly great value for money! There was also a significant discount for three people traveling together! Playing with the elephants was so much fun—it felt very pure to be in nature with them. You can get up close to the elephants 🐘😍, they're adorable! The bamboo rafting in the afternoon was also very relaxing! Overall, I highly recommend this tour for its excellent value! Group size: 8 people. Tour guide: Thai guides who speak English, and some also speak Chinese.

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.

Such an amazing tour with an amazing tour guide, his name is James. Very informative, open to lots of questions, made sure we are comfortable and suggested more places to visit to fully enjoy Chiang Mai. James is a highly recommended tour guide. He is calm and always have a big smile on his face. Will surely book this tour again if ever i visit again with ny family.

10/10 worth it. we got into the falls when there weren't too many people. the amount of time alloted was perfect if you're going from the second level upwards. the view was great and the driver/guide was also really nice. we were given free bottles of water and tea/coffee from the cafe. the dogs in the cafe are so nice, and well-behaved. we watched the elephants from afar and donated to their cause. and the churros were so good too. overall, we really enjoyed it and it was worth the price.

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.

The top choice for getting close to elephants, and it's very close to the Old City! The driver was very friendly! We got to interact with the elephants, feed them sugarcane, walk with them, make medicinal balls to aid their digestion (banana, brown sugar, salt, tamarind, bitter melon root, rice bran powder), and bathe them in the river. The entire environment was wonderful; learning about elephants in nature was an amazing experience! The fee also helps support the elephant sanctuary, which makes it feel very worthwhile.

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.
