Amazing Chiang Rai Tour – A Day to Remember! I booked the Chiang Rai full-day tour via Klook, and it exceeded all my expectations! The journey from Chiang Mai was smooth and well-organized. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and shared fascinating facts throughout the trip.

If you want to cover a lot in one day, then this trip is highly recommended! I was actually only interested in the Golden Triangle, but that turned out to be a bit boring and short-lived. Luckily, there was enough variety during the trip to take some great souvenir photos. A great and helpful driver despite the VERY long drive.

This was a very exhausting tour yet informative and worth every money you spent. You just have to be lucky that all participants of this joiner are punctual and follow time schedule so you can enjoy all scenery and tourist spots covered. Suzy was our tour guide and she is very informative and engaging all throughout the tour. lunch buffet is also included in this tour.

[One-day tour experience of White Temple, Blue Temple and Black Temple] There will be a special car to pick up downstairs of the hotel early in the morning. After picking up tourists in the same group, they will start the itinerary. XD The tour guide is very good at the scenic spot and will help take pictures~ 📍First stop: hot springs, you can soak your feet & buy hot spring eggs. 📍Second stop: White Temple, if you do not meet the dress code, you can rent an apron outside (rental 20 + deposit 100) but it is better to wear beautiful clothes that meet the regulations for taking pictures~ 📍Third stop: lunch is all you can eat. The restaurant is opposite the White Temple. The Thai restaurant has common curry noodles, pork noodles, fried rice and fried noodles. 📍Fourth stop: Blue Temple. The murals in the temple are very dreamy. If you do not meet the dress code when entering the temple, there are free aprons to borrow. 📍The fifth stop: the Black House Museum, which has a stray cat shelter. The cats all wear collars and are super cute. Donate 20 baht to get a small gift and meat paste to feed the cats. On the way back to Chiang Mai, we will stop at a famous product store to use the toilet and try cashews. The time we finally returned to Chiang Mai was around 6pm.

I definitely enjoyed this tour. I learned a lot about the history of the places we visited because our tour guide is very smart and knowledgeable about the story of these places.

Our tour guide, Peter, knows the history about the places so well. He explains it clearly before going to the places and when before he let us explore. Our driver also brought us back safely, so thanks to him too! The only downside is that, the ride is too long, but it’s a worth it tour!
