One Nimman චාරිකා

අපට විවිධ රටවල් 3කින් පැමිණි පුද්ගලයන් 8 දෙනෙකුගෙන් යුත් කණ්ඩායමක් සිටියා! අපගේ මාර්ගෝපදේශකයා චියැං මායි හි සහ අප සංචාරය කළ පන්සල් 2 පිළිබඳ ඉතිහාසය බෙදා ගත්තා. කාලය හරියටම ප්‍රමාණවත් වූ අතර හෝටලයට සහ හෝටලයෙන් ප්‍රවාහනය ලබා දීම ගැන අපි ස්තූතිවන්ත වෙනවා!

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.

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!

රියදුරු ඉතා හොඳයි, සමස්ත ගමන විශ්වාසදායකයි. චියැං මායි හි වනාන්තර උද්‍යානයේ පිහිටා ඇති ඇලෙන සුළු දිය ඇල්ලේ ගල් අළු-නිල් පැහැයෙන් යුක්ත වන අතර එය පුදුම සහගතයි! ජලය සිසිල් වන අතර, ඉහළට නගින අතරතුර ඔබට ස්වභාවධර්මය සමඟ සමීපව අන්තර් ක්‍රියා කළ හැකිය!

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.

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.

A waterfall well worth visiting. Since I was the only passenger that day, it felt like I had chartered a private vehicle to the waterfall. The driver was extremely friendly and brought his grandchildren along, making it feel just like going on a fun trip to the waterfall with their family—a very heartwarming experience. The timing of our arrival was just right; right after we finished enjoying the waterfall, it started to rain, adding a refreshing coolness to the return trip. Definitely a well-deserved five-star review, highly recommended.

Thanks for our tour guide, Immy. She is full of the knowledge of the history and temple related. And she is also patient to any of my questions. The temples are very beautiful and walking in this area is let me feel peace. Above all, this is a excellent tour for who wants to know more about history of Chiangmai.
