Chiang Rai Province Dagsturer

Vi hadde en fantastisk tid på vår dagstur til Chiang Rai! 🩵 Turen var godt organisert, hyggelig og veldig informativ. Guiden vår (Raine) var vennlig og kunnskapsrik, og vi lærte mye om historien og kulturen til hvert sted vi besøkte. Templene var vakre, og alt ble forklart tydelig uten at det føltes stressende. Alt i alt var det en minneverdig opplevelse og absolutt verdt det. Anbefales på det sterkeste! ✨

Our tour guide, M, was very kind and dedicated, switching between Chinese and English to assist everyone in the group. Before the trip, pay close attention to the travel agency's messages. The day before departure, they will send an email with the updated meeting time; the one I received was different from what was initially booked. The car arrived exactly on time. 8:50 AM: Chiang Rai Hot Spring. The foot bath was extremely hot, so I could only dip my feet in briefly. 9:20 AM: Long Neck Village. There's a coffee shop on a hill next to the parking lot, offering distant views. The owner had difficulty communicating in English, so it's best to double-check your order. 11:30 AM - 12:40 PM: White Temple (Wat Rong Khun). It was breathtakingly beautiful, and the route design was very meaningful. Photography is not allowed inside the main hall. 12:50 PM: Lunch. It was a buffet with freshly made noodle soup, various Thai desserts, and sweet fruits. 1:50 PM - 2:30 PM: Blue Temple (Wat Rong Seur Ten). You can take photos with the large Buddha statue inside the Blue Temple. Outside, there's a row of vendors where you can buy souvenirs and snacks. 2:50 PM - 3:30 PM: Black House (Baan Dam Museum). This is an artist's private collection with a unique style. 4:30 PM - 5:40 PM: Golden Triangle Park (optional boat tour for 300 baht per person). We returned to Nimman Road at 10:00 PM, an hour later than the scheduled 9:00 PM. Thankfully, I had brought snacks for the journey. The streetlights along the route were quite spaced out, and the mountain roads were not very smooth, so I recommend that those prone to motion sickness take medication beforehand. Although the tour ended very late, the guide remained energetic and provided excellent service throughout.

Mamma og jeg likte virkelig den heldags kulturelle turen til Det hvite og blå tempelet. Det var en fantastisk opplevelse med god service, og guiden forklarte kulturen og historien veldig bra. Vi lærte mye og nøt virkelig hele turen.

Unfortunately, the tour started a bit outside the main area, which I found a little disappointing. Otherwise, I'm absolutely thrilled. The tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and explained a lot. He also answered questions promptly. He made a special effort to integrate everyone into the group and gave us some tips and information. The temples were also breathtaking, and I don't regret doing it. To top it off, our tour guide even gave us mini pineapples at the end.

Tempelet i Chiang Rai er helt nydelig. Reiselederen vår forklarte historien veldig godt, noe som gjorde besøket enda mer meningsfullt. Vi hadde også god tid til å utforske tempelområdet på egen hånd. Det var en fantastisk opplevelse og absolutt verdt et besøk.

Mr Em is a great tour guide! he's very patient, friendly, and informative about the places. i learnt alot from him. the places are all incredible. hot spring was kinda meh, but its on the way to chiang rai so why not. the long neck village as well. but you can opt not to go in the village, you can kill time at the cafe on top the entrance. great coffee with a view! and cozy too! all the temples are soooo beautiful. we had a safe ride for the return trip so kudos to the driver mr man. its a longggg day so make sure you bring and use sunscreen and umbrella. it was insanely scorching, and then strong rains at the same day. the buffet place was really nice! lots of choices and its right next to the white temple. the journey back from red temple is about 4 hours, you'll be so tired so everyone just sleep in the van. you'll get a break at a petrol station to pee or buy things!

Jeg deltok alene. Hotellhentingen var punktlig og problemfri. Det var fem av oss på turen, inkludert meg selv. Jeg var fornøyd med at vi fikk god tid til å se alle stedene. Guiden var også en blid og veldig hyggelig kvinne. Det er plagsomt å ordne alt med GRUB hver gang, og det er farlig å kjøre motorsykkel på ukjente veier, så jeg tror det var riktig å delta på en tur med tanke på sikkerheten. Lunsjen var en buffet i samme område som det svarte tempelet, og den var også deilig og tilfredsstillende.

The tour guide was friendly and polite, fluent in both Mandarin and English. They provided detailed explanations of the history and background of the attractions. The driver drove smoothly and steadily. Friends traveling to Chiang Mai should definitely sign up for this activity to gain a deeper understanding of Northern Thai culture. The food quality was good, and most of our fellow travelers were from all over the world, so we all got along well. The best part was being able to admire the White Temple, Blue Temple, and the Long Neck Karen village. The villagers showcased traditional Northern Thai handicrafts, and the adorable smiles of the children in the village left a lasting impression on us.

Vi hadde en så fantastisk lang dag med å utforske Northern Territory – så gøy!
