If you’re looking for a tour that will spiritually deepen your Temple experience and will educate you more on Buddhist customs/Thailand culture, then this is the one. Our guides were so incredibly kind and knowledgeable. We are grateful to have met them and learned from them. Thank you Ty and Blue!!!

Tom was an AMAZING guide. So knowledgeable and kind, he had food for every animal we came across. He made sure we all had a great experience and answered every question we had. I can’t imagine a better temple experience than this.

James our tour guide was an ex monk. He gave us lots of in-site to their lifestyle, making this tour even more enjoyable. Arriving in the early morning is magical, meditating while the monks chant is spiritual, participating in the rituals is a lifetime experience I won’t soon forget. The hidden jungle temple was surreal and peaceful. This was definitely a 5 star tour.

We thoroughly enjoyed every part of this tour. The guide Tom was excellent and provided so many insights into Buddhism and Thai history. It was an early start which meant we were finished before the hottest part of the day. Sitting and talking with the monk, and then meditation with him, was a real highlight.

Tom is a fantastic teacher/guide. Incredible view and being blessed by a monk made this tour unique and unforgettable. Visiting each temple was truly a magnificent experience. Every aspect of this tour is well worth it.

The tour was very fun and informative, because our guide knew a lot about the temples, buddhism, but also about thailands history and was very happy to answer all questions, but also provided a lot of information on his own, while being nice and funny. It was a perfect glimpse into thai culture.

Our guide James was fantastic!. He was so informative on our tour and gave us religious, cultural and historic insights every step along the way. We lived the tour and so enjoyed having him as our guide. Also, our driver was helpful and courteous. Always felt safe with him behind the wheel! This is a must do tour in Chaing Mai!

Non guided us through a truly magical sunrise journey, weaving his wisdom and presence as a former monk into every step. His gentle insights invited reflection and connection, turning the morning into something far beyond a tour—it was an awakening of spirit. If you are seeking more than just sightseeing, but a deeply meaningful experience, I wholeheartedly recommend Non.
