Fantastic Experience - Our day with the Tuk Tuk Club was amazing! From the moment our guide, Bigg greeted us and throughout the day we were looked after and had a fantastic experience.
Tom's customer service in advance was helpful and responsive - answering our questions quickly and tailoring the experience for us.
It was the best day of our holiday for our family of 4 (including 2 teenagers) - an adventure filled day with every detail considered. I would recommend this experience to everyone :-)

Exceptional - What an unforgettable day with the family, one of the most beautiful days of our lives....Big is a wonderful person, very generous and who will help you discover the most beautiful things in the north of Thailand on a tuk tuk in very very good condition like new, feeling of freedom and proximity with the inhabitants and the landscapes...the temple with exploration of a cave, the discovery of elephants in a setting worthy of Jurassik Park and a bamboo descent on a magnificent river... throughout our day we were supervised and pampered by true, very humble professionals. A must+++ if you are in Chiang Mai.
THANK YOU BIG❤️.

Great experience and great guide! - We had an amazing day in Chiang Mai during our honeymoon with this company! OA was our private guide - he was fun, experienced, and helpful! My husband took a driving lesson with OA before starting our drive around the countryside - OA made sure we were safe and ready before starting our adventure! From our drive in the tuk tuk, we were able to see beautiful scenery including farming and nature, and a temple which we stopped at. We got great photos! We then stopped at an elephant sanctuary to take care of elephants for the day. At the end of the day, we did bamboo rafting. The company provided us with a delicious packed lunch, gave us reusable water bottles and had filtered water available to us. We would definitively recommend this day excursion to anyone!

Tuktuk club is amazing and Chiang Mai has my heart - We did the 3 day, 2 night trip and it was amazing!
Our guide Yaya was very knowledgeable and supportive. She shared her in dept knowledge about the area, the people, Buddhism. She was also able to share info about other areas in Thailand. The views were spectacular, food amazing and all our needs were catered for. The other people at restaurants and accommodation were all so nice. Mono who worked at the area where we camped was also lovely.
We loved that they took us to markets and areas to support the local people and where items grown/made in the area. We also loved that they had a keen drive for conservation, the environment and animal welfare.
Would 100% recommend to others. We would love to come back and do a longer trip.

What a fantastic day - What a fantastic day and way to see the countryside outside of Chiang Mai. Our guide Nam was really attentive, informative and good fun. Felt very safe, Nam ensured we were all comfortable with the driving before setting off. Water was provided in a keepsake reusable water bottle and lunch at the elephant sanctuary was good. Would highly recommend this trip.

6 stars! - If possible, I would give 6 (or more) stars! The organisation was perfect. The guides really had thought of everything. From mosquito spray to a towel and plastic bag for the wet swimming costume. They were very friendly and helpful. We received a very detailed explanation and all our questions were answered with expertise. The rafting was also a unique experience. Top experience and highly recommended!

Highly recommend this wonderful Chiang Mai adventure for the entire family! - Would definitely recommend the Tuk Tuk Club and our wonderful guide Yuth for anyone looking to explore the surrounding areas of Chiang Mai. The trip was super well planned, our guide was very knowledgeable of the environment and attentive to our needs. Also great trip for kids - our 6 yr old had so much fun! Will be back.
