5.00Fantastic time. My tour guide Ek was incredible - there were just 3 people total - all ladies and he called us “his Queens” and treated us as such. He gave us in depth history and added in some juicy tidbits, royal scandals and local folklore about spirits and more. Loved it so much I could have hung out with him all day long.

5.00Being low season, in the end it was a private tour: the two of us and the very nice guide, mr. Pae. The tour was interesting, enriched by Pae's non-trivial explanations. Definitely recommend this tour!

5.00This 1/2 day city tour was absolutely lovely. Our guide, Poongkie and driver, Wichit were both delightful and so helpful. Poongkie knew and shared the history of Chiang Mai and the Lanna Kingdom in a fun and engaging way. We saw and learned a lot! We never felt rushed, there was plenty of time to see the 3 Wats and the museum. We would say this is a must do tour of Chiang Mai!
Great half day tour!

Great Tour for an Orientation to Chiang Mai

5.00We are an older couple who had a great trip this morning conducted by tour guide Nong. We booked the group tour and there were only four of us total. The tour covered all the high spots – the three major Wats as well as the Chiang Mai City Arts and Cultural Center. Nong has an extensive understanding of area history and provided thorough explanations and insights as we traveled throughout the city. It was great to understand what we were seeing both in the Wats and around the town. It was a morning well spent.
Great tour with Mr. Nong

5.00We went on the temple and city tour with Mr. Nong. It was private tour and he picked us up with a driver from our hotel. They were polite and professional and provided cold water and towels after each stop. Mr. Nong was a wealth of knowledge and provided an excellent tour through three temples and one museum. We felt like we really got to know Chiang Mai and it’s history and the importance of Buddhism to the Thai people. Would recommend 100%.
Excellent tour with amazing guide!

5.00I’ve been in many tours lately, and this is certainly one of the best! Transportation is really comfortable. But the highlight of the tour is Bee, the guide who offers relevant information without rushing through the sightseeings. She is calm, professional and well-informed! Definitely worth it!!
