Additional Information

Embark on a half-day journey to explore Chiang Mai’s enchanting landmarks. Our tour includes a trip to the revered Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, perched atop a mountain, offering incredible panoramic views of the city. We also make a stop at the culturally-rich Hmong village. Wat Phra That Doi Suthep is among the city’s most sacred temples, with a history dating back to 1383 under King Keu Naone’s reign. Its mystical origin involves a wise monk from Sukhothai who directed the Lanna king to build a temple housing the twin of a miraculous Buddha relic. This relic was placed on a white elephant that roamed the mountainside until it passed away at the site where the temple now stands - a spot considered chosen by divine intervention. To reach the temple, one can either take on the challenging 306-step staircase as a meditative undertaking or opt for a more comfortable tram ride.

Wonderful - This tour was fantastic. Our guide and driver were very kind and well-organized with transportation and scheduling. Each stop had a great amount of opportunity to learn about history from our knowledgable guide, and to admire/photograph the scenery.

Alright half day tour to Doi Suthep & Hmong Village - My family and I would have preferred to spend more time at the Hmong Village (we only had 30 minutes). Doi Suthep was beautiful. There was another temple/place that we visited first before going to the Hmong Village then Doi Suthep; and in my opinion was not a necessary stop as I felt it took away much preferred time from the Hmong Village that has more to offer.

Disappointed - They informed the evening before that a tour as booked in the afternoon had to be cancelled and offered us to meet the morning tour. We could not. We were very disappointed.
