“Excellent day in Doi Inthanon National Park - Being without personal transportation, we quickly realized that passing through a tour was the only way to visit the park in good conditions. Very nice and interesting guide. Available, smiling and attentive, he answered all our questions about Thailand. The waterfall of Wachiratan impressive for its flow. The king and queen pagodas impose them, surrounded by flower gardens. On the hiking trail, fabulous landscapes, between jungle, waterfalls and rice fields. Good and hearty meal. Take a trip to the Karen market to buy good local produce. Tasting of friendly coffee at the end of the day. This day was perfect, I highly recommend it!” - Reviewed on 2024-12-15
