Loved this tour! - Such a great tour — private tour with own Tuk Tuk driver and tour guide. Really knowledgeable tour guide, Chanji, and great driver (very safe and professional). Interesting locations and helpful information shared from the guide. A good amount of activities packed into the time frame. Definitely not too much, especially since I thankfully was driven around with the Tuk Tuk (considering the humidity).

Great time!! - Of course you can see all the temples on your own, but having a tour guide explain the art, traditions, etc felt really worth it. We came at a good time during the Inthakin Festival and there was so much we wouldn't have known if Chanji wasn't with us. She was very friendly and happy to answer all the questions we had. Getting to ride a tuk tuk across Old City and outside was also so much nicer than having to walk and get lost!

Chiang Mai's Old City - We really enjoyed this private tour that included some of Chiang Mai's popular temples, as well as several monuments and markets. Our knowledgeable and friendly guide 'Banana' educated us on the history surrounding the Old City, kings and monks (as well as being our personal photographer). And our tuk tuk driver was always waiting to take us to the next place. A very pleasant morning!
