Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep, Wat Phalat, The Sticky Waterfall Tour

Firstly, this was a great tour with a great guide and driver. Doing the top 2 sights in a single day did appeal to me and that's why I picked this tour. We made three main stops during the day. The issue is it's a long day. The temple and sticky waterfall are in opposite directions so there's a lot of driving. If you're short on time, do them all in one day, otherwise I think taking 2 separate tours makes more sense.

What an incredible day! The temples in the morning were stunning- great views, history, culture. Lovely to walk around the sites and take it all in. Beautiful waterfall at the 2nd temple, very chilled and fairly quiet. The sticky waterfalls were excellent. I wasn't sure what to expect but I had so much fun. We ended up climbing them twice. Our guide couldn't have been more helpful or friendly. He came with us every step of the way, getting lots of photos and sharing his knowledge. This tour is quiet and we were the only 3 people. Would definitely recommend.

It’s amazing. Our guide was very friendly and helpful. He kept the timing perfectly so we have enough time to explore each sites. He also helped us to navigate busy crowds as we are there during the Buddhist festival. He also took us to this very nice local restaurant for lunch. The highlight for us is definitely the sticky waterfall. My son who’s 12 became really obsessed with it and insisted on doing it twice. It was definitely his highlight of our entire trip in Chiang Mai.

We had such a great day trip! The day we selected we happened to be the only group, so we had a private tour. Mongkol always made sure we knew we could take our time at the stops to explore and enjoy (especially because we were two people and take less time than a group). The locations were so beautiful and exactly what we wanted to see. They showed us the University reservoir on the way as a little bonus, because it was only us two. They showed us around Doi Suthep and told us some stories about Buddhism at the temple which were very interesting. There is a very beautiful view there and peaceful places to sit that we didn't expect. Wat Pha Lat was stunning with the waterfall running through the site, and there we had time on our own to wander. We had extra time, and they offered to show us Huay Keuw waterfall—this was a great experience and they told us some stories about the area and statues there. The sticky waterfall was a big highlight! They did the first climb with us and helped us through the slippery parts as sometimes algae grows on the sticky limestone. The challenge added to the fun in some parts. The jungle around the falls is so beautiful and scenic. Mongkol is a very genuine and joyful person which shows in the way he works. They were also incredibly generous, offering water and coffees and letting us order whatever we wanted for lunch. They answered all the practical questions without us having to ask—bathrooms, where to store items, where to meet next. We were very comfortable the whole time. Thank you so much!

Mongkol was an incredible guide. Very knowledgeable. Took us to a great spot for food for lunch and catered to allergies. He was so enthusiastic about nature and wildlife it really gave us so much information to digest. Great tour to cover three amazing beautiful sites.

We enjoyed a relaxing tour of Doi Suthep, Waterfall Phalat and the Sticky Waterfall. The Temples were pretty and harmonious with nature. The Waterfall was pretty and the limestone it flowed down on looked really nice. There were a lot of people climbing up the rock with the aid of a rope and looked like they were having a great time. The guide was nice and we had an enjoyable day. Thank you 😊

We had a great day with our guide Mongkol. His English was very good and he enjoyed sharing his knowledge about the Buddhist religion. We really learned a lot about Buddhism from him. He also loves nature and was always good at showing us birds and insects and little creatures. We never felt rushed touring the temples in the morning. In the afternoon, Mongkol joined us in climbing the sticky waterfall. There are lockers and bathrooms to change and store your things. We ate local food for lunch which was included in the price! It was just a great day out!

We had a perfect day with our guide Mongkol! His English was very good and he enjoyed talking about his Buddhist faith and answering questions about Buddhism. He also loves nature as we do and was always pointing out animals and different insects along our way. We were the only ones who had booked this tour that day, so it ended up being a private tour which was great We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to enjoy both temples. In the afternoon, we went to the sticky waterfalls and Mongkol climbed them with us. It was a lot of fun and such a unique experience. There are lockers and bathrooms so that you can change into your bathing suit after you get there. Recommend bringing a towel and water shoes as well. You won’t regret booking this tour!

Booked a group tour but everyone else cancelled so it turned into private tour. Kiow the guide was awesome. Good communication and lots of knowledge. Answered all my questions. Super good person.

Mongkoi was our guide, and he was absolutely fantastic! He shared fascinating history and stories throughout the tour, and his knowledge was impressive. His English was excellent, even though he apologized several times, which we really appreciated. He spent a long and very worthwhile day with us, taking us to the temples, the sticky waterfall, and even guiding us to the monk’s trail when he learned we wanted to go but didn’t know the way. We’re so grateful for his time and effort—our experience was truly amazing thanks to him!

We recommend this tour- the combination of visiting the temples and Sticky waterfall activity was great

Wasn’t sure what to expect, thought it would be a group booking but ended up solo with the guide. Apologies for not knowing how to spell his name! Exceptionally knowledgeable about the teachings of Buddha, the temple and local flora/fauna. Highly recommend this tour!

Great experience to be able to visit some of the most iconic temples in Chiang Mai and also a sticky waterfall. Even though I was the only person going on the tour, the tour guide still put forth tremendous effort to ensure I had a phenomenal time. He was fun to have a conversation with and was flexible with the schedule - if there was anything I wanted to add to the itinerary, he would've accommodated it. I loved this experience and would highly recommend it!

We had a really good time with our tour guide, he is a very dedicated and detailed person. Enjoyed the stories he shared about Buddhism. My mom does not speaking much English, he paid attention to that and looked after very well. Would definitely recommend this tour.

It was a perfect trip combinin the temples with nature itself. Monkgol was a super nice guide. He told the stories and the history of the places we visited. He also gave info about the culture and religion and most importantly he answered my questions patiently. Definitely recommending both the tour and the guide🌸

My group your turned into a private tour and it was even better than expected. Tour guide was very knowledgeable about sites and it's history. He was great photographer. He helped guide you down and up sticky waterfalls as well. Highly recommend!

Guide was fabulous. Filled us in on the culture & history of the temples. There was a festival going on so we were able to sample all the local food.

We loved everything about it! Our tour guide went above and beyond for us, apart from taking us to a lot of nice places, he was very considerate, polite, and overall a very generous person. He did the best that he could to explain the history and culture.

Great day out, temple and sticky waterfall was amazing wouldn't change the day one bit. Very memorable and the tour guide is very experienced and great to be around. Thank you very much for giving us such a memorable day.

This was the perfect tour for us to visit the temples outside of Chiang Mai that we wanted to see, and also hit the sticky waterfalls at the end to cool off with and it was just us, no large group so we could take the time we wanted at each stop. Our guide, Mong Kon, was excellent and had lots of knowledge about the area's history and Buddhism to answer our questions about things we saw. He also took us to a great place for lunch on the side of the road where we had the best Khao Soi and stewed pork leg with rice. Highly recommend this tour and guide

Incredible tour! Each temple we visited was incredible, and I learned so much about Buddhism and the history of the area. The blue temple was incredible and much less crowded than others I had visited which I enjoyed. The sticky waterfalls were the highlight of my day - a must-see when you're visiting Chiang Mai in my opinion! Since the group was just me, we were able to spend a lot of time going up and down the falls and I got a lot of great pictures and memories! Thank you to a memorable and fun-packed day

Our guide was amazing. Very attentive ane seemed to really enjoy his job! Was also really informative during temple tours and driving round Chiang Mai.

Guide was fantastic and helped with my wife who has vertigo issues. Adjusted program to suit. Great experience and highly recommend. Chiang Mai and surrounds are stunning. Highly recommend a visit to Wat Phalat. Very quiet and peaceful.

Our guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. He explained Northern Thai traditions, beliefs, and legends from ancient times until now as he took us along the journey. He was extremely positive and very much wanted to share his beautiful culture with us. His English was excellent, and he could converse on any subject in which we engaged. This tour was simply amazing!

From the moment our driver(Mongkol) picked us up we knew the trip was going to be great. His knowledge when we got to the temples was very good. We even managed an unplanned stop at Dantewada (land of Angel waterfall park) on the way to the Blue Temple, this place is well worth a visit When we got to Sticky waterfalls Mongkol even climbed the waterfall with us to ensure are safely and take pictures of us climbing it. Fantastic day, would definitely recommend it…

We had an absolutely incredible day with our fantastic guide Mongkol.He was exceptional,the best guide we have ever had in all our travels.We visited temples first and his knowledge,vibrant,kind and fun personality shone through.He genuinely wanted to share his vast knowledge of the history of Buddhism and temples and shared so many interesting facts.I thought I would be bored to see temples but Mongkol made the experience simply fascinating.We tried many tasty new foods too throughout the day and ended with the Sticky waterfalls which was perfect as quieter then so we could take great pics.It was such fun climbing up them,thoroughly recommend going to Doi Suthep and other temples,then this waterfall after (I have never known anything like this to climb).Mongkol’s kindness and thoughtfulness throughout the day was exceptional - I am so glad we booked this tour and were lucky enough to meet him, he has given us so much to understand and learn from - it’s just a shame he couldn’t be on all our tours as he is an exceptional guide and a genuinely wonderful person and has been the highlight of my first trip to Thailand.Thank you for such incredible memories.

'Had the best time! Terrific guide and driver, beautiful places, sticky waterfall so much fun. We didn't go to the final temple (first two were enough for us) but had the best day. Personalized attention, help, knowledgeable and fun guide.

My guide, Mongkol, is a Buddhist scholar and shared deeply from his knowledge when visiting the temples. He was also personally engaging, considerate, and interested in discussing other cultural and historical topics. At the waterfall he came with me to assure my safety and comfort. Our lunch stop was at a very delicious vegetarian restaurant ( I am vegetarian). I highly recommend this tour which is also a locally owned small business.

My guide, Mongkol, shared so much of his knowledge of Budhism while showing me the temples, my experience was totally enriched… and finishing the trip at the sticky falls was fabulously beautiful and exhilarating.

It's one of our best experience in Thailand. The guide took us to some different tourist attractions. It is really worth to have done in one day. Wonderful Day in Chiang Mai.

An intense day, very full but definitely worth it. We saw beautiful sights, we went up the sticky waterfalls , it was very nice and refreshing . Many temples seen throughout the day. It's true that there's a lot of road to do, but it allows you to see a lot if you have little time in chiang mai.... Our guide Monjok was very nice, explained a lot to us , showed us animals or insects to see when we met some along the way . We very much enjoyed the excursion

La nostra guida è stata gentilissima e super disponibile. Ci ha spiegato molte cose sul buddismo e ci ha accompagnato per tutto il tempo incoraggiando le nostre domande

Très beaux site. Cela permets de découvrir la nature et cela permets de varier avec les temples. Rafraîchissant Prévoir maillot de bain et chaussures anti dérapantes car même si nos pieds accrochent bien, à certains endroits il y a de la mousse qui peux déranger à la montée de la cascade collante

Super fun day tour! Visited three beautiful temples, all breathtaking in their own way. The guide told us a lot of interesting things. The sticky waterfalls were a lot of fun to do! Highly recommended!
