We had an amazing experience on this private temple tour! Our guide, M, was absolutely wonderful. He arrived right on time in a beautiful, comfortable SUV and was friendly, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable throughout the entire experience. He took the time to explain the history and significance of each temple, answered our questions, and made the tour both interesting and enjoyable. The pace was perfect, and we never felt rushed. M truly made this experience special for us. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Chiang Mai, especially if you’re lucky enough to have M as your guide!

Yut is the best guide! Ask the tour with him: nice, honest, intelligent, patient and very well prepared. Thanks, Yut!
A brilliant day. Tony our guide was enthusiastic and knowledgable whilst ensuring we had a great time. Along with our driver Aek nothing was too much trouble. The mini van was comfortable and clean and offered a lovely respite from the heat with cold towels and water. Tongs knowledge of the temples and pace of information was perfect. He was the best guide. The four temples you visit give a great overview especially the Mountain Wat. Would highly recommend.
Our brilliant tour guide Tong gave us a day to remember. He gave us lots of facts, dates and historical detail but also made the day good fun. With three over 70 year olds in our group he made sure that we were able to get in and out of the vehicle with an offered hand of support. We learned a lot and laughed a lot too! A big thank you to Tong and our wonderful driver Aek.
Our tour guide Tong was extremely knowledgable and funny whilst genuinely wanting us to enjoy the day. He was very attentive to make sure we had sufficient water and to lend a hand to the grand parents when needed. He got the mix just right between giving information and having fun. He is also a great photographer and was forever suggesting places to get the perfect picture! Lunch and snacks were delicious. Aek our driver provided a wonderful Minibus for our travels with plenty of water, cold towels etc which provided relief from the heat when he whisked us steadily and smoothly up the windy roads in between temples. Would highly recommend. Thank you for helping us make magical Memories Tong and Aek.
This was a great experience from start to end. Our guide Tong was fantastic - warm, funny and genuinely concerned that we have a great day. He couldn’t do enough for us including a diversion to a local market to get my mother’s glasses fixed! ( they had broken the day before) All in all an excellent tour, thank you so much
I would highly recommend this tour and if you’re lucky enough to have Tong as your guide, you are in for a treat.
This tour was awesome. Yut was very knowledgeable and a great tour guide overall. I definitely recommend him and this tour for anyone considering.
Mr Tong was a very knowledgeable tour guide. Would highly recommend him for any tour in Chaing Mai. Spoke very good English as well. Took care of everything for us. Mr Tong was very friendly and accommodating. Definitely coming back to Thailand and would book him again. 5 ✨!
Our guide Mr. Tong was very passionate and knowledgeable about the temples. His English was very good and we could all understand him very well. We not only enjoyed the day we learned a lot of valuable information.
Best time and guide So passionate about all his Thailand stuff . We learned so much an had a better understanding of the couple and Budda Temoles I will recommend to all my friends to travel here and ask for Mr Tom Penny & Darren
Temple tours was absolutely amazing! Mr Tong was so helpful and kind. His knowledge was exceptional. I would highly recommend this tour and the tour guide. Thank you for everything!
Amazing time with our tour guide.. very knowledgable friendly funny .. made us feel very welcome.. and safe always made sure we had our belongings.. what we needed for that day ..
Great tour! If you’re booking this ahead time, request Tong to be your guide. He shows up right on time with freshly baked snacks from his local village and an awesome attitude. I learned a ton about the the ancient Thai people and Tong was happy to answer all of my questions. Highly recommend!
I had the incredible fortune of taking a Doi Sutep and other temples tour with Tong. He is a skilled guide and a kind and thoughtful person, who elevated the already incredible experience to truly memorable. The tour was perfectly timed, we arrived where Tong said we would *to the minute*. I learned a great deal about these four unique temples that are such a critical part of Chiang Mai history (while having enjoyable and light hearted experiences along the way.) Five Stars, no notes, delicious snacks.
Tong is an excellent guide! Very knowledgeable, super friendly and a careful driver too. We will recommend him to our friends when their plans call for travel to Chiang Mai.
This tour with our guide Tong was wonderful. Could not recommend him more highly! Tong was attentive, experienced and knowledgeable.
Tong gave me and my family a great day in Chiang Mai today. We spent the day traveling to four temples with a great authentic lunch and coconut ice cream to end the day! He made the city and its Buddhist traditions come alive. If you have a day in Chiang Mai, let Tong guide the way
Our tour of four temples in Chiang Mai was EXCEPTIONAL! Tong was an experienced and friendly guide who made the experience totally worth it. We ate lunch at a local restaurant with great food, and transport between temples was seamless. Tong provided us with helpful information and history on the temples, and was incredibly knowledgeable. Don’t miss this opportunity— 5 stars!
Tong was a phenomenal tour guide. He was so kind, knowledgeable, considerate, and friendly. I highly recommend this tour and Tong as your guide!!
If you're in Chiang Mai on a business trip and have limited time for sightseeing, I highly recommend booking a full-day private tour. I had the pleasure of touring the city’s temples with Mr. Tong, who provided insightful and professional explanations throughout the day. The tour was well-organized, informative, and a great way to experience the cultural highlights of Chiang Mai in a short amount of time. Don’t miss trying the local noodle soup and the delicious coconut ice cream — both were memorable! Thank you, Mr. Tong, for an excellent and enriching experience.
Mr. Tong is a great tour guide. I was on business trip - not much time for sightseeing. The private tour was a good choice, to see the highlight of Chiang Mai. Don't miss to taste the noodle soup and coconut ice cream. Mr. Tong, I appreciate your recommendations.
It was a wonderful experience, our guide was Tong, we received excellent explanations about the places we visit. I highly recommend Tong for other visitors.
The places were amazing and the guide Tong made it exceptionally. I really recommend him as a guide. He takes care of everything in a very kind way. And have a great knowledge about the places, answered all our questions.
The guide Tong made the difference. He is excellent. Answered all the questions and have a very good knowledge. His English is very good also. We enjoyed a lot our day.
5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ For Tong ! Most Excellent Guide ! 🙏🏻 Tong made our day so very special with his excellent knowledge, engaging personality & attention.
Great Experience with Tong! Authentic Thai Restaurant and amazing lunch! Chance to do Jade shopping at upscale boutique.
We were very fortunate to have Tong as our guide for the day. He arrived with a warm and welcoming smile. He provided traditional snacks from the region for us to try. He was very knowledgable about the history of all of the temples we visited. The day was organized extremely well with delicious, authentic cuisine for lunch. He made our day in Chiang Mai very enjoyable. Highly recommend !!!
We were very lucky to have Tong as our guide. Very informative and entertaining as well as caring for our family. It a great tour and I highly recommend!
Amazing tour in Chiang Mai! Tong (guide) and Song (driver) were fantastic. Highlights: Doi Suthep, Wat Umong, and stunning temples. Highly recommend!
Absolute pleasure to be shown around Doi Suthep and Wat Umong from Mr. Tong. Extremely professional agency and guide, highly recommend
Our private temple tour with Tong in Chiang Mai was the highlight of our trip! From the moment we met him, we knew we were in for a special experience. Tong's warm, friendly demeanor, including lots of humor, instantly put us at ease, and he went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic time, especially our 2 young kids. Tong's knowledge of Chiang Mai's history and temples is truly impressive. He shared many stories and insights! He was incredibly patient with our kids, treating them as if they were his own, keeping them safe and engaged throughout the tour. More than just a guide, Tong felt like a friend, making us feel welcome and cared for. We highly recommend Tong's private temple tour to anyone visiting the area. We've already saved his contact for our next trip to Chiang Mai!
Chiang Mai has officially become my favorite Thai destination- it's calm and authentic. Tong did an amazing job teaching us about the history and Buddhism as we went. Doing this tour really helped us appreciate what we were seeing even more :)
Tong was the best tour guide. He was funny and took so many great pictures of me and my fiancé around the temples. I appreciated all the time he took explaining the history behind each location. I had the best day.
Our guide Tong was a 6 out of 5. I can honestly say this was my best day so far in Chiang Mai because of his tour. Tong took the time to explain to us the historical significance of every temple, while also providing jokes along the way. The tour was great, we got some amazing photos thanks to Tong, ate some delicious food and learned a lot about Thailand. Would definitely recommend!
Excellent tour guide, Mr. Tong. Made our trip most enjoyable. Appreciate his hospitality very much. Highly recommended. Thank you.
We had a wonderful guidet tour with Tong and his co-workers! It was a fun and interesting tour! We specially loved the hidden temple with all the green! It was a nice gesture that he provided us with a delicous snack from his home town and a small present for all of us! We hoped to see the sunset, but knew it is lower probability in the rain season! We still enjoyed the mountain and the the fog coming and going! We reccommend this for others!
Mr. Tong was so great - professional, friendly, thoughtful and fun. We had an excellent tour and he took us wherever we wanted. Mr. Tong had good recommendations for the itinerary and even restaurants in town. Highly recommended.
Mr Tong was a wonderful guide and we highly recommend him. I would reserve him again when we come back. He was so caring and so kind. He spoke English so well and had a great sense of humor. He thought about everything we needed and looked after us so well. We had such a great tour with him. Loved all the temple sights and the hill tribe village was a fun experience interacting with the tribes. There are several different tribes in one area and you will be helping them by visiting and buying their handmade items.
Couldn’t have asked for a better tour Guide! Mr. M was very knowledgeable. He communicates very well and was able to provide me with insights and information regarding the place. It felt like I was traveling with a friend. He was warm and welcoming. There was no rush. We set a goal for the day and we did all of them and then some. The place was beautiful and he took great pictures. I’m in awe in the beauty, story and history of the places we visit. I I had the best tour guide and would definitely come back to Chiang Mai!
Mr. Tong was sooooooo nice! We learned so much about the temples, Buddhism, and the Thai culture. Our authentic Thai lunch was super good. You must try Chaing Mai noodles. He made this experience great! Thank you for treating us like royalty. Hope to see you again my friend.
My first time come to chiang mai I had one of that best experiences. Me and my fiancé went to different tours with Yut. He is such a sweet person and very professional. He answered all my answers. I highly recommend.
I cannot speak more highly of our experience and our tour guide, Tong. Do not hesitate to book this tour if you are looking for a kind and knowledgeable guide who will anticipate your every need Thanks for a wonderful experience!
Wow!!!!!!!!! Our tour with Tong was incredible. It’s a special experience to see this city through someone who is a native to Chiang Mai. Tong’s knowledge of the area is only matched by the size of his heart and the efforts he takes to make this a memorable experience. He was so thoughtful, going above and beyond to make us comfortable and happy, teaching us about the culture and history of the temples, and we were so happy to learn about him, his family, and his life in Chiang Mai. He even took the extra time to drop us off at his favorite restaurant in Chiang Mai after our tour… it was amazing!!! I can’t wait to one day come back, where I will absolutely call Tong for another trip!!
Tong was a fantastic guide. English was brilliant. He was interesting, informative, funny and he made sure we had a great day.
We cannot rate this tour highly enough. It was made so good by our guide Mr Tong, he was so knowledgeable and informative nothing was too much trouble for him. I only wish we had known about him when we first arrived in Chang Mai as we would have loved to use him for all our tours. His English was also very good.
We had a great time with Tong during the tour! He explained everything clearly and took us to amazing places! We even tried local snacks and helped us with questions we had! It was an amazing experience.
Great experience! Very knowledgeable and funny tour guide. We had really wonderful time and delicious local lunch.
Fantastic tour. Our guide M was fantastic. Very knowledgeable. Very friendly. Excellent speaker of English. Saw so much but never felt rushed. M's knowledge and life experiences added immensely to the tour.
We hadn’t originally booked this tour but after spending a couple of hours with Mr Tong on the Chiang Rai tour we added an extra tour to our itinerary. Mr Tong is an excellent guide and very thoughtful, even down to making sure that we had our train tickets and knew which platform we needed for our train to Bangkok at the end of our stay. From the minute Tong picked us up, he made sure we had the best experience. Starting with lunch at a local restaurant with authentic regional dishes, answering all of our questions on Buddhism at the temples and showing us local customs. We spent some time at the hidden temple sitting at a waterfall and chatting - I can’t thank Mr Tong enough for his willingness to share his experiences us. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide.
