Unbelievable Experience 10/10 - Wow, this trip was fantastic. So well organised and the guides were super friendly. I booked an evening Kayak session and although it was only me, it couldn’t have been any better. I was picked up from my hostel by the lovely Rin (driver) and Jane (Guide). They were very welcoming and we had some good chats before starting our kayaking. The kayaks were comfortable and the river Ping was easy to row on. This activity is suitable for beginners as I had only ever done stand up paddle boarding and I found it pretty easy. Jane was super knowledgeable about the history and culture of Chiang Mai, I learned a lot on this activity. As the sun started to set, the lights became so beautiful to row past. We waved by people enjoying their boat cruise or dinner in passing restaurants. It was a lovely experience. Jane had the most infectious personality, we were even singing songs as we rowed! At the end, Rin was awaiting us to help disembark the kayak and return me safely to my hostel. I can’t thank Jane and Rin enough for a wonderful experience in Chiang Mai.

Nice trip down river - Everything was set up for us on this trip. That made it great. After a 15 min ride, we were on the river. Our guide made sure we all had a good experience by moving back and forth between everyone and explaining where we were and what we were seeing. Well worth the time and money.

A Kayaking Delight - It was a peaceful paddle on a beautiful night with the shadows of the trees accompanying us. The trip was well organized and the guide and staff were more than competent making for a drama-free experience. Kayakers Don’t miss this opportunity.

Guide with a Gift - Hands down most enjoyable part of the excursion was our guide! Great staff all around but he made the trip!! Loved seeing a quiet side of Chaing Mai night life but not sure I would go in the water when I could see it 🤪. Our guide was informative, helpful, very funny and personable and I am sad we didn't think to get a picture with him, or write down his name! Would come back for another adventure with him!!

Lovely quiet paddle down the Ping River - On-time pick-up; the guides stayed with the group and made sure everyone was safe and comfortable. It's my second time kayaking with them and will go again! I wish we had started earlier to enjoy the sunset because we launched after the sun had set.

Enjoyable peaceful evening - I am not an experienced Kayaker, this is a leisurely trip on the Ping River, The trip delivers what it says it will a chance to see Chiang Mai from the water. As you enter the city you see many nice buildings that are lit up at night. This is a good way to get out and spend a peaceful evening. Enjoy

A bit boring - Pick up was as planned. The kayak trip itself is fairly boring, very little to see along the way. For an inexperienced kayaker this would be quite hard, it is over 1 hour long.

Terrible experience - I do not recommend this to anyone! Not only was it not a pleasant ride and physically challenging, but the staff kept making inappropriate and rude comments to all my friends. Having in mind that they receive tourists from all around the world, the company and staff were not culturally aware and kept making us pay fee after fee that was not disclosed beforehand. Terrible experience.
