Highlights
- Mae Khachan Hot Spring - In the morning, we’ll board our transport and head north towards Chiang Rai. Our first stop will be at Mae Khajan Hot Spring, Thailand’s largest geyser. After dipping our toes into the warm, natural mineral water, we’ll continue our journey to the White Temple.
- Wat Rong Khun - Wat Rong Khun, or The White Temple, is not just mesmerizing on the outside. Once you enter the doors of this elaborate structure, you will see the painstaking attention to detail of Chalermchai Kositpipat, a globally recognized local artist and owner of this private art exhibit. His representation of Buddhist principles combined with modern pop culture shown on the inside is something you can only see for yourself – and must as photos are prohibited inside!
- Golden Triangle - Next we’ll board our transport and stop for lunch before exploring the world famous Golden Triangle. The nickname was coined by the CIA in reference to this region, whose trading posts’ top product was opium. Join us as we dive deep into the wild history of this area and how it became one of the most notorious narcotrafficking spots in the world.
- Chiang Mai - We’ll head back to Chiang Mai for hotel or meeting point drop off.

Amazing North Thailand - Really great tours, we booked two and both were very well structured (Chang Rai and Doi Inthanon Park). Our guides (Peter and Boon) were very well prepared and made our fully-packed days pleasurable and comfortable. They provided interesting historical and cultural insights, and kept our kids engaged the whole way through. Drivers were great and everything went extremely smoothly. We really recommend them and are grateful for their work.
