Great tour! - We had a memorable experience with our tour guide James. Hos background as an ex-monk brings mich value and authenticity to the experience. We got to learn a lot about buddhism - to the most interesting details of a monks lofe. The first temple visit is truly unique, experiencing the early morning routine pf the temple. Well done James, and thank you!!

A tour worth the 5:00am start - don’t miss this one. - Our sunrise tour with ex-monk, Tom, was amazing. Sunrise at Wat Phra That Doi Sutrep was magical. We arrived early and avoided the crowds arriving later. Tom went out of his way to explain the role of monks, their education/training and role in the community. Our tour took us to Wat Pha Lat, a peaceful mountain jungle setting. Tom described his time and training while he was a monk there.

The perfect start to your day!! - The best way to see Wat That Doi Suthep without all the crowds. This was the most amazing sunrise I have seen. Tu was an excellent and knowledgeable guide who has great insight and was extremely helpful throughout the tour. We were able to be with the monks during their morning chants and participate in the daily giving of food to the monks. The other temples on the tour were off the beaten path. I highly recommend this tour!!

Sunset temple tour….a must. - This was by far my best tour of temples and I must have visited at least 15. Since Tom is a former monk he is extremely knowledgeable. He talked about his life as a monk which was so fascinating. At one of the temples I prayed with a monk and handed out food. There were other rituals I did to show my respect for Buddha. And to top it off, the sunset was awesome. Tom, thank you for an incredible day.

The only way to see these incredible sights! - You have to get up early but it is well worth it! The rich history and culture of the monk you are able to learn on-site, to witness and be part of first-hand, is incredible. You’ll have Wat Phra That Doi Suthep basically to yourself before the heat and crowds and the most peaceful, pleasant experience. Do it!

Sunrise Tour at Doi Suthep - We loved our tour guide Non! He was very informative and hilarious! The sunrise was incredible and to see the temple with very few other people there was awesome. We loved seeing the monks start their day. The breakfast we had, Khao Soi, was the best we had in Chiang Mai! Would highly recommend this tour!
