Wat Phra That Doi Suthep

For this tour we wake up and leave early in the morning at 05:00 - 05:10 am. and drive up into the mountains to visit the Wat Phra That Doi Suthep temple ( A Chiang Mai Land-mark.) We highly recommend visiting this famous temple at dawn. The temple is quiet and the monks are just chanting, rousing and going out to receive alms offerings. Without any crowds you can enjoy the magical morning light and incredible views in serenity. It is the beginning to a great and wonderful day. Doi Suthep temple is located on the peak of the Doi Suthep Mountains and is the most famous landmark in Chiang Mai. They say you have not truly been to Chiang Mai if you have not visited this temple ! At the top of the temple you can view the pagoda shining with real gold, and a viewing platform offers panoramic views of the whole Chiang Mai City – take in the wonderful countryside landscape while the sun rises behind the city and mountains. The morning sky and view could be immortalized in a beautiful painting ! Morning life at the temple is unforgettable -the sound of temple bells, monks chanting and the fascinating view of Chiang Mai will fill your heart. Don’t leave Chiang Mai without this impression.!!! Before we continue to the other sites, we will have a nice and original taste of famous and delicious Chiang Mai food. ( Khoi Soy or Thai local breakfast sticky rice and Local Thai KFC. ) After sunrise. we will drop by at the hidden jungle temple and Wat U-Mong to enjoy the serenity surrounding & peace ! Both of them are unique meditation places, very interesting and serene. See you in the morning at 5:00 a.m.-05:10 a.m.

    James was an exceptional tour guide. His knowledge and personal experience was invaluable to making this tour amongst my most cherished. I learned so much about the Thai culture, Buddhism, and the life of a monk. James was funny, sincere, and respectful of all people. It was amazing.

    This was such a profound, beautiful experience . . . well worth getting up early for! As a matter of fact, the dawn lends such a magical tone to this incomparable experience. Small group sizes further enhance the intimacy of the tour. Tom, our tour guide, was the consummate professional, both before and during the tour, communicating in a timely basis the days prior to pick up, and also with sharing his vast knowledge about the types of Buddhism in Thailand, and the general and regional history of Thailand as well. One can feel his care and love for the religion, the sites we toured, and his country. A well-spoken, kind gentleman, an amazing tour, and such a serene, sacred temple and two other sites. This tour was the highlight of my recent stay in Thailand, and that's saying a lot as it was all just wonderful. My gratitude to Tom and to the monks and nuns of Wat Prah That Soi Suthep.

    🌟 An unforgettable experience – like a dream come true! 🌟 I was lucky enough to take part in this tour, and I can honestly say it was a wonderful, fairy-tale experience. The temple we visited radiates such a deep sense of peace, almost magical, and every moment felt timeless. Our guide, Non, a former monk, was the true highlight of the experience: incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and with a way of sharing stories that was truly captivating. He beautifully blended spirituality, culture, and humor, making us smile and reflect at the same time. A truly memorable person. I received so much valuable information, always presented clearly and meaningfully, never boring for a second! Truly an experience worth a perfect 10 I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for something authentic, deep, and special. 🙏✨
