Fantastic 5.0
While trying to decide what to experience in Chiang Mai, I found this place. It's an activity where you can make Ya Dom (Thai inhaler) and herbal balls, which are signature Thai products, so I decided to give it a try! It was very informative to learn about the characteristics and effects of each herb and to make them myself. Most importantly, the instructor was very kind and made it a pleasant experience. Since I made the Ya Dom and herbal balls myself, they feel even more meaningful and valuable to use. The store also sells herbal teas, oils, and balms, and their effects are really great! I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a fun and educational activity!

It was my first time trying yoga and meditation, and overall it was a unique and enjoyable experience. While there's plenty of information about meditation online, nothing compares to learning it in person. Hearing the instructor's calming voice, being surrounded by the peaceful atmosphere, and even taking in the scents of nature made the experience truly special. The only downside wasn't the activity itself—it was my own lack of research. I didn't plan my transportation properly, so I ended up paying an extra 1,000 baht for my driver to wait for me for three hours. That aside, it was a wonderful experience, and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking to relax and reconnect with themselves.

The most worthwhile part of my trip to Chiang Mai was this traditional Thai dance experience. It's a shame I didn't have more days, otherwise I would have loved to continue learning from the instructor. The instructor was incredibly gentle and patient. Even though there was a language barrier, the instructor's English, combined with body language and translation software, allowed us to understand and communicate smoothly. I truly loved this instructor. Before the dance class ended, they even prepared sliced mangoes and egg tarts, which was very thoughtful.

PU was my masseuse, and I chose the four-hour luxury package. The experience was incredibly relaxing and enjoyable. The essential oil selection, body scrub, milk bath, traditional Thai massage, and facial treatment were all wonderful. Best of all, buying the voucher through Klook made it even more affordable! Facilities: Very relaxing Masseuse: PU was very professional and attentive Service: Five stars

Very good, and the price is also very affordable. When you arrive, they first give you a cup of herbal tea, then the massage goes from your back to your legs, then to the front, and finally to your head. The massage therapist's skills are excellent. I highly recommend Kate (I think that's her name). Highly recommended, absolutely flawless.

It is a very beautiful spa place. The place is clean and calming. The reception staffs were friendly and my therapist Tuptim was very polite and skilled in Thai massage. The way she handled my foot bath and slippers is really menticulous. One can easily relax here. It has been awhile since I did a Thai massage so I was afraid that I cannot handle the pressure at first but it turns out really great! Highly recommended if one is in Chiangmai.

My first ever massage, and this place offers great value for money! Every minute of the 60-minute session was well spent; every nerve felt relaxed. The technique was truly excellent and very thorough! It was so wonderful to get a massage after a tiring shopping trip! They even offered tea and snacks afterward! Both the service and the environment were very good, and the price was really a bargain!!

The lady who assisted me, DA, reportedly has ten years of massage experience. Her technique isn't just about muscle manipulation; she incorporates stretching, pressing on the hamstrings and calf muscles, and focuses on meridians to help you relax. There's also a consultation form where you can indicate areas that need more attention or should be avoided, preventing any unsuitable services due to unfamiliarity with your body's condition. This level of service requires professional knowledge combined with experienced techniques. I was so lucky to find such a professional masseuse in Chiang Mai; it made the ten-hour train ride completely worth it. Otherwise, with my gastroenteritis caused by a cold, I was almost in tears, and my itinerary had to be changed to just resting. Although the shop is located in a small alley, it's very clean, decorated with wooden tones, and the air smells of essential oils. Upon entering, you're offered iced or hot tea, then your feet are cleaned, you're given slippers, and escorted to a room on the third floor to change into comfortable clothes before the massage begins. It's a very pleasant experience. The only thing is that English and Thai are the primary communication methods, with very limited Chinese available. If you don't like having your fingers or toes pressed/bent, it's best to inform the masseuse beforehand. P.S. The air conditioning is quite strong (Chiang Mai in May is scorching hot...), so it's a good idea to bring a jacket.

What to know before visiting Chiang Mai Province

Things to Do in Chiang Mai

Night Bazaar

You can explore the Chiang Mai Night Bazaar for handmade goods, snacks, and easy evening walks. Many travelers come here for street food, small shops, and a relaxed night out. It’s one of the most visited attractions in Chiang Mai.

Wat Phra That Doi Suthep

You can ride up the mountain to visit Wat Phra That Doi Suthep by songthaew (red truck) or taxi from the city center. The temple is known for its views over central Chiang Mai. You can also climb the long staircase if you prefer, with detailed steps and gold details along the way.

Wat Phra Singh

Walk through Wat Phra Singh to see its halls and quiet corners. It's one of the most respected temples in Northern Thailand.

Wat Chedi Luang

Visit Wat Chedi Luang to see its large ancient structure in the middle of the city. The grounds are open for walking, and monk chat programs sometimes take place here.

Living Green Elephant Sanctuary

You can spend a peaceful half day learning about rescued elephants at the Living Green Elephant Sanctuary. You can feed them, walk with guides, and enjoy a slow, thoughtful visit.

Get your Living Green Elephant Sanctuary tickets through Klook ahead of time to make your trip easy!

Wua Lai Road

Enjoy food stalls, crafts, and music along Wua Lai Road on Saturday nights. You can try dishes like pad thai, northern Thai sausage, or vegetarian khao soi.

Tips before visiting Chiang Mai

1. Plan for the weather

Chiang Mai can be warm during the day, especially in March and April. Bring light clothes, drink water, and rest indoors if the sun feels strong. (Klook tip: You can walk into coffee shops or food courts to cool off.)

2. Visit temples with proper clothing

In most temples, you'll be asked to cover your shoulders and knees. Make sure to bring a light scarf or long shorts that work well. This will help you feel comfortable during longer walks.

3. Try local food with an open mind

Street markets offer dishes like khao soi, sticky rice, and northern Thai sausage. You can try small portions first if you’re unsure. Fresh produce and all the tropical fruits are also easy to find at local markets.

4. Learn simple transport options

Red trucks, taxis, and app-based rides like Grab will make moving around easy. Chiang Mai International Airport is close to the city, so transfers are quick. You can also rent a bike if you want to explore central Chiang Mai at your own pace.

5. Bring cash for markets

Many food stalls and small vendors prefer Thai baht rather than cards. Make sure to keep small bills for snacks, drinks, and simple gifts. This will make your visit to night markets and street markets smoother.
