Doi Suthep tours

We went to Doi Suthep night tour.We went to Wat Umang and Doi Suthep.Da-da our tour guide was very jolly,playful and informative.Our pick up was on time and the journey was smooth.She was attentive and explained the history of each temples to us in detail.

Nuttaya was absolutely the best guide. Never rushed us in exploring three different temples, was very informative, and super kind. I met her on a different tour but she offered to peel some longgan for me. If you are with her please please ASK RECOMMENDATIONS ON WHAT ARE THE BEST THINGS TO BRING BACK HOME. She is amazing. Tour starts early (pitch dark) but it is so beautiful. Let Nuttaya take your photos — literally the best guide a solo female traveler could have.

I got one more stop. We visit two temples, and a Village. Wat Phalet is a 700years old temple, and the pagoda seems very ancient. In Hill Tribes Village, I saw a lot of aboriginal people dress. And I give a young sister my Marathon Medal for gift.

Pros: - patient, enthusiastic, informative, and hardworking tour guide - comfortable van with AC - timely pick up and drop off from our hotel - tour felt like the perfect length, not too long or short - 3 stops which are all so beautiful on their own - food is provided by the tour to offer to the monks Cons: - if you’re prone to motion sickness, take meds beforehand!

We had tour guide Sunny and driver Boy who were very interactive and polite throughout the tour. Sunny was very fluent in English and her explanation was detailed and understandable. She was flexible in taking good pictures of us at many spots. She guided us through the temples history and Buddhism and we were able to see a prayer by monk in the evening session which was very calming. Entire trip was pretty smooth and we enjoyed the view of Chiang Mai.

The tour guide New is super professional and cute. He introduces a lot of knowledge and origins of Suthep Temple. The Miao Village recommends walking to the top of the mountain to drink coffee, but you have to pass a very ordinary and small museum along the way.

Thanks to our tour guide, Danny….he did try his best to serve us…..unfortunately some of us couldn’t take spicy Khao Soi food, but it’s a Michelin delicacy

It was a REAL adventure!! Firstly, be aware that this tour is definitely NOT for everyone, especially for those who rarely exercise. However, for travelers who used to do casual hiking and biking (not necessarily mountain biking), and hope to have some adventures outside of Chiang Mai old town, don't hesitate, you will like this tour! Nice natural sceneries, meals both before and after the hike/ride, and friendly guides!:)
