The whole experience was absolutely amazing! My guide Nancy was incredibly supportive and helpful, she gave me all the information about the temples and thai culture. I highly recommend it!!
Nancy and Mr Tids (the driver) were fantastic! We were very lucky because it was just me and my partner on the trip so we got a private tour. Nancy gave very good information and was able to answer all of our questions. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is visiting chiang mai or chiang rai. Nancy was also a very good photographer and was able to move other tourists out of the way so we could get an individual picture. They supplied bottles of water, which was very much needed in the heat and recommended us a good restaurant to eat in for lunch where there was air con. Overall 10/10 experience.
We had a fantastic tour visiting the Hot Springs, White Temple, Blue Temple, and Red Temple! Our guide (Amay) was exceptionally attentive, keeping us refreshed throughout the day with water and local snacks, and answering every question with impressive depth of knowledge. A highlight was taking a break for lunch in a wonderfully clean, air-conditioned restaurant, which was the perfect way to recharge. Finishing the day with delicious local ice cream was a delightful touch. Highly recommended!
We had a wonderful day exploring Chiang Rai, and this tour exceeded our expectations. Every stop was unique—from soaking our feet at Mae Kachan Hot Springs to seeing the incredible White Temple, Blue Temple, and the stunning Guanyin statue at Wat Huay Pla Kang. It was a full day, but it never felt rushed. Our guide, Nancy, was fantastic. She was warm, knowledgeable, spoke excellent English, and shared interesting history and cultural insights throughout the trip. She kept everything well organized while making the day feel relaxed and enjoyable. A special thanks as well to our driver, Hero, who was friendly, professional, and made us feel completely safe on the long drive. The vehicle was comfortable, and everything ran smoothly. If you’re staying in Chiang Mai and want to see the highlights of Chiang Rai without worrying about the logistics, I highly recommend this tour. Thank you, Nancy and Hero, for making it such a memorable day!
The experience was incredible. The atmosphere of tour guide was so wonderful. Ammy Pom was our guide, she is soo perfect.
Nancy was really kind and warmly ! Thank you very much for this guide tour ! We spend a good time.
Nancy was an amazing tour guide. She was very knowledgeable of the visiting areas and gave us plenty of time to look around. She took plenty of pictures for us. It was a long journey but our driver Eak got us around safely. I would not be able to make this drive myself!
Amazing experience with a local guide around Chiang Rai Temples and Tribes/ Long Neck Village - Ammy is extremely friendly, espontaneus and not only explain you about the tours, but also about Thai culture, language and she is really interested in our culture too! The driver Aek is extremely professional and polite! Highly recommend it! Khob khun ka ขอบคุณค่ะ 🙏🏼

Amazing experience and worth it.
Nancy was very helpful and kind to us. We loved the tour! Definitely we recommend it.
Ammy and her driver are awesome!!! Ammy is such a heratwarming person, lovely woman!!!
The tour was well executed and I appreciated the clarity of what we were doing next. The guide provided not just information on the site but also important spiritual insights that aligned with the Buddhism. This was an added plus. There was careful attention to my needs and desires. The graciousness of both guide and driver were appreciated. All stops were highlights but the walk through the Lahu village was simple, non commercial and very insightful. I really loved this tour.
The company cancelled the tour the previous night, even though I had paid ahead in full. I received a full refund after a few days, but that was a lost day in my travel schedule without any compensation. I assume they were overbooking this tour, so be careful and know that your confirmed booking can be dismissed at the last minute.
Excellent tour if you are in Chiang Mai for a few days and want to see the temples in Chiang Rai. The tour was good and they shared the history of each one with us, we also had lunch at a local place to learn more about their culture.
Ammy is the best tour guide we've ever had the pleasure to follow! We visited the most beautiful places with her who accompanied us and taught us a lot!! We love and regret not having scheduled more trips with her!!
Excellent service from Amy our guide, everything was perfect 👌🏻
I had Ammy as a guide. She was great, showed and explained everything to me, and everything was very cool but relaxed. I can highly recommend it.
The experience was wonderful. The guide Ammy is really very attentive, friendly and very friendly. It made the ride even more fun. I highly recommend.
The tour is undoubtedly one of the best. Very beautiful temples. Our guide Jane introduced us to all the points and explained each one of them, a love of person. We loved this tour.
A very special walk! Beautiful places and very attentive service!
Great experience to be able to see the 2 temples as well as a natural spring and the village! The Guide knows exceptionally much about the temples and faith. Definitely recommended if you have a day off!
