Wat Lok Moli tours

Honestly, if I could give this tour 6 stars, I would! Our tour guide was Natt, and we were really lucky to have him. He’s funny, very knowledgeable, and explains things in a way that is easy to follow and understand. Throughout the tour, he guided us really well and we learned so much more about Chiang Mai’s history, Buddhism, and local culture than we expected. We also kept asking him all sorts of random questions that weren’t even part of the tour, but he never made us feel like we were bothering him. He went out of his way to help us and was incredibly generous with his recommendations. You can tell he genuinely enjoys sharing his knowledge and helping visitors have a better experience in Chiang Mai. We left the tour feeling very happy and satisfied, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. This tour definitely deserves more attention and recognition. Highly recommended!!!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommend the Doi Suthep half-day tour! The itinerary is well-paced and never feels rushed. Our tour guide, Mike, speaks Chinese, so communication was completely seamless. His service was exceptional; he patiently explained things along the way and even kindly offered to take photos for us, knowing all the best angles. We stopped at a Hmong village for coffee halfway through, which had a wonderful mountain atmosphere and offered an immersive experience of Northern Thailand's hill tribe culture. The entire experience was relaxed and comfortable, making it stress-free even with children. A wonderful mountain excursion in Chiang Mai and extremely satisfying!

We had a group size of 8 with people from 3 different countries! Our guide shared some history of Chiang Mai and of the 2 temples we were visiting. Duration was just right and thankful for the transportation to and from hotel!

More than a sunrise tour, this half day was truly meaningful, and our guide James was the highlight! We started by buying food to give dana (alms) at Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, passing the statue of the monk who raised funds to build the mountain road. James used to be a monk, so he explained the Buddha's story, the temple murals and the meaning of the pillar decorations. The sunrise was stunning, with the whole city below as James shared each temple's story. Wat Pha Lat is a peaceful hidden gem. Through his connections with the monks, James gave us real insight into monastic life and the meaning behind the nagas, tigers and deities. Our favourite was Wat Umong. We tried local instruments and drinks at a small event and explored the meditation tunnels a king built for a revered monk (with cute bats inside!). It felt like visiting historic Lanna temples with an actual monk by your side. Highly recommended, and James is the best guide!

The trip was well organized. Songthaew for pick-up, guided tour, it has an actual tour guide who knows the best spots and history of the historical Lanna Kingdom leading to this Doi Suthep we now know.

Our guide was incredibly kind from start to finish and provided excellent explanations in English! They worked so hard from early in the morning, and it was a great experience that our visit happened to fall on a commemorative day in Thailand!

This was the only tour available when I booked the day before, so I chose it. However, it turned out to be much better than I expected, and I'm glad I picked this one over other tours. The meeting time is very early, which makes the morning a bit challenging, but because of that, the temples and hiking trails were less crowded, allowing for a stress-free experience. Unfortunately, it was cloudy this time, so we couldn't see the sunrise. Our guide was also very thorough and made the experience enjoyable. I'm very grateful. We arrived back at the hotel before 9 AM, which meant we had the rest of the day to enjoy, making it very efficient. I highly recommend this tour.

I made good use of the free time in the evening for sightseeing. The duration was just right, not too long and not too short. It was very convenient that after the tour, I could be dropped off at a dinner location instead of being taken back to the hotel. The guide was also very kind and provided clear explanations, which was excellent.

The half day tour is good, not too long and not tiring. Guide, Mee is great, professional and can speak well in both languages, English and Mandarin. pick up at hotel and flexible in dropping us, a location along the way. Last stop, a temple high up in a mountain, the climb of 300 stairs was a good exercise and fantastic view of Chiang Mai city.
