Easy way to see 6 temples in a single day

Published on Dec, 2023

Spent the day touring temples in and around Chiang Mai. Guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the temples; the meaning of the various murals, paintings, and carvings; and especially the Buddhist religion and the numerous monks that are historical, legendary figures. Tour included stops for lunch, coffee, and water.

Outstanding tour of the temples of Chiang Mai and vicinity

Published on Feb, 2020

Very well organized private tour. The guide personalized our experience. Explained the rich history of Chiang Mai as the former capital of the Northern kingdom. The cold towels and the stready supply of cold water bottles were helpful in the hot tropical climate. The guide was attentive to detail. We spent the right amount of time at each stop and had an unforgettable experience overall. Strongly recommend!
