It was easy to get to Mae Kampong. I had a reservation for 16:00 for the return trip, but I was able to come down from the mountain early, so I told the staff my reservation name around 15:20, and I was able to return on the 15:30 van. I think it was an early departure because the number of people was reached, but I was glad I could return without waiting.

The timing was accurate, and we were able to go to all the places I requested. I made them wait quite a bit at cafes, etc. because I took my time, but they waited without showing any displeasure. I also appreciated them using a translation app to communicate with me in various ways. For this price, I would like to use them again next time.

the drive going to Mon jam was quite far and crowded because of the day we chose to go. nevertheless we had a very fulfilled day. Jungle coaster was fun but the queue is really long. we waited for more than 30mins, and the ride was too short. Going to Yod Doi cafe was a bit of a hike. place has a nice viewpoint of mountains. weather was cool too! the botanic garden showcases Thailand’s plant life. it was vast and beautiful.
