Coisas para fazer em Mae Kachan Hot Spring

Our tour guide M was very kind and dedicated, switching between Chinese and English to cater to everyone in the group. Before the trip, pay attention to the travel agency's messages. They will email you again the day before departure to confirm the meeting time, which in my case was different from the time given at booking. The car arrived very punctually. 8:50 Chiang Rai Hot Spring: The foot bath was super hot, you could only dip your feet in briefly. 9:20 Long Neck Village: There's a cafe on a high spot next to the parking lot, offering distant views. The owner couldn't communicate much in English, so double-check your order. 11:30-12:40 White Temple (Wat Rong Khun): Amazingly beautiful, and the route design is very meaningful. No photos are allowed inside the main hall. 12:50 Lunch: Buffet style, with freshly scooped noodle soup, various Thai desserts, and sweet fruits. 13:50-14:30 Blue Temple (Wat Rong Seur Ten): You can take photos with the large Buddha statue at the Blue Temple. Outside the temple, there's a row of shops where you can buy souvenirs and snacks. 14:50-15:30 Black Temple (Baan Dam Museum): The private collection of an artist, with a unique style. 16:30-17:40 Golden Triangle Park (optional boat trip 300/person). We returned to Nimman Road at 22:00, an hour later than the scheduled 21:00. Luckily, I had snacks with me. The streetlights along the route were quite far apart. I recommend that those who get motion sickness take medication beforehand, as the mountain roads there are not very smooth. Although it ended very late, the tour guide remained energetic throughout, providing excellent service.

We had a great time on our Chiang Rai day tour! 🩵 The trip was well-organized, enjoyable, and very informative. Our guide (Raine) was friendly and knowledgeable, and we learned a lot about the history and culture of each place we visited. The temples were beautiful, and everything was explained clearly without feeling rushed. Overall, it was a memorable experience and definitely worth it. Highly recommended! ✨

The tour unfortunately started a bit out of the way, which I found a bit of a shame. Otherwise, I am 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 tips and information. The temples were also breathtaking, and I don't regret doing it. To top it off, our tour guide also gave us mini pineapples.

It was quite a long way to Chiang Rai, but I made the round trip safely. The guide was wonderful and cheerful, and took lots of pictures for us. The Red Temple wasn't on the original schedule, but it was included, which was great since I wanted to go. Since I had to get back to Bangkok that same day, we returned to Chiang Mai a bit later than scheduled, but the guide dropped us off near the airport where it was easy to catch a Grab, so I boarded my flight safely. It's quite a distance to Chiang Rai, so I definitely recommend this tour!

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.

We had such an amazing long day discovering the Northern Territory - so much fun!!

Except for the hot weather and long-distance travel, the White and Blue Temple is very beautiful. The Black House has a very mysterious appearance. It's worth a visit.

I had an experienced and friendly driver, Thor. The trip to Chiang Rai was very smooth, and the driver recommended local food that was super delicious. Thank you, Thor.
