I was disappointed that the Tour operator canceled disappointment at the last minute. We did not get a chance to go on the tour. They did communicate well, so that’s why they get a three star rating, but I can’t give them any higher than that as they canceled on the last minute

Very nice guy, helpful and energetic. However he's English was not the greatest. We encountered many guides in Thailand prior and this young man, in spite of being very helpful, probably needs a bit more practice

Van was a great guide. Very knowledgeable and spoke English well. I felt like we hit all the key temples in the area (obviously can’t see them all!).

The tour guide, Arrow, and driver (Mr Ling) were fantastic! We saw the temples at a nice relaxed pace and learned so much about the city, monks, and Buddhism. We even got a meditation lesson. Definitely a highlight in our trip to Chiang Mai!

We were initially a bit disappointed as our booking had been cancelled by someone by mistake and our tour started an hour late. However, this was overshadowed by how amazing our tour guide was. Bua was amazing and really made our experience unforgettable . She was so knowledgeable and accommodating.

This tour was very informative and exciting! The guide was very knowledgeable and very friendly as well. The driver was calm and I felt safe while he drove me, my wife and my one year old toddler. They even had a car seat and waters for us. This was legit perfect for me and my family and I’m so glad we went with them.

I'd give 10 stars if I could. This was a great tour with an extremely knowledgeable and well spoken guide. Her explanations of the history, going back to ancient times and past Kings, was so enjoyable!
