A great day out if only short amt of time in Chiang Mai - A full day, as expected and pretty much all major tourist spots visited. The visit to Karen village seemed staged and a bit exploitative but otherwise a great day trip. Our guide Sky was informative, humorous and very welcoming.

Best Value for Top Chiang Rai Sights - The best value for your money. I was looking at traveling to each of the locations on my own by hiring a private driver or using grab and the cost was nearly triple to price offered on viator. This trip nearly packs on the top sights of Chiang rai into one day. I was promptly picked up at 8am and back by 5:30-6pm. I loved stopping at the white temple first, there was a good amount of time given (highly recommend the cave), but could’ve taken 30-60 more minutes at the white temple. Perfect amount of time to explore the blue and black temple. Okay visit to the Karen Long Neck tribe, but be prepared to pay 300 baht (maybe think of this as a donation to the tribe). The lunch is okay, it would be nice to have an option to pay for lunch at the tea plantation and have more time there to enjoy their food (it looked incredible). It starts to feel a little long after this, but it’s worth going to the gold triangle just to go and visit the house of opium. Overall, I recommend and believe this is the best tour option out there.

Great tour guide, showcasing main highlights of the area - We were lucky to only have 5 on our tour, so there was plenty of room in the van. Our tour guide was friendly, helpful and knew his history. Van was in good condition, with bottled water supplied. We stayed an ample time at each destination. The white and blue temples were great to see. The Bandam Museum was unusual and interesting. The tea plantation was nice. The highlight of the tour for me was going to the infamous Golden Triangle, something l've always looked forward to visiting. The additional border stop with Myanmar was interesting. The only thing l wouldn't recommend is the long neck village. I was in 2 minds to see it. You pay 300 baht per person for this, and really all you see is the lady with the most rings around her neck. This is interesting, but the rest of the stop here covers a row of locals using their kids to try and sell souvenirs. We didn't really learn much. Your entrance fee goes to supporting the local refugees in this village, but l don't recommend it, or think one gets much out of it. Having said that, this was completed optional and not pushed on to us to participate in. Lunch was adequate at a local restaurant. It was a long day on the road, but had frequent stops and toilet breaks at the activities. Our guide was great and overall we were very happy with the Chiang Rai highlights tour. It was well-proced. Please give the tour guide a tip, as a few dollars to us, means more to them.

A very full day - Excellent day out in Chiang Rai and surrounds. Covered a lot of ground while maintaining a relaxed pace. Note we visited golden triangle rather than Mae Sai, but that's probably better. Every stop worthwhile - recommended.

Awesome tour with great tour guide - This was a great trip to see the big ticket items in Chiang Rai. Very safe for single travellers. Had read reviews about the Karen tribe being like a “human zoo” so was dubious, but it was actually very good. Children playing, food cooking in their houses behind the shops. Thank you for a great trip

Must do tour if you visit Chiang Rai - This was really a great tour, covering all the main highlights of Chiang Rai. It's a long 12 hour with many stops but all with adequate time to see all the sites we stopped at. Our guide Wam was excellent. Water was provided throughout the day and the tour included also a basic lunch. I highly recommend this tour.
