Chiang Mai tour review
"May was helpful and was always ready to answer any questions. She had a lot of knowledge and the tour was informative and a great way to see a lot of the city. There were quite a lot of places to see and getting around was done really well and considerately. The stops were well placed apart so it gave time afterwards to walk and talk about each place afterwards. May explained what everything was, and made sure the tour was both fun and interesting. Thank you May for all your help and patience! "

Blessings on Blessings
"The hidden gems of Chiang Mai tour with Naphat was the best decision I could have made to introduce myself to this magical city. Her progressive perspective and compassionate nature as well as her deep love and knowledge for Thai history and culture made the tour exceeded all my expectations. I am a solo female traveler and she listened to my needs and customized the tour beautifully. It felt as if I was catching up with an old friend after many years. From Buddhism, temples, markets, street food and even the best places to catch some live music, she covered it all. The mindfulness meditation she guided me through in her favorite temple was a deeply healing experience. It is hard to put into words my gratitude for her openness to impart the wisdom she has gathered through her own extensive travel and life experiences. khàawp-khun ka for the many blessings I received in just a few short hours with her.

Feels like home
"Seriously, i feel weird even writing a review because our day was not a service; it was just fantastic walk with a friend🤍 felt like we know each other for quite a good life time. Lot of perspective to Buddhism and philosophical aspect to Thai culture. History of seperated kingdoms with Chiang Mai different aspects of history and architecture of temples and pagodas. Hidden places in the evening chinatown and sneaking around flooded sandbags muddy alleys and bridges. a lot of suggestions to my next days in Thailand...and friend for a lifetime. : ) Thank you so much!:) and see you in Iceland!:))"

Early morning bliss
"This is one of the best tours I have been on in long time. Kit was an amazing guide, super knowledgeable and engaging. He also customized the tour to include an addition two temples and the Royal Pavilion. If you want to experience all that the temples have to offer, including the history and belief systems of the unique Thai version of Buddhism definitely take this tour!"

A Great Day in Chiang Mai
"Nephat has an infectious enthusiasm and natural talent helping people discover the history and culture of Thai people. She was very patient with me when I asked a lot of questions about the stone engraving in the twin pagodas. I appreciated the way she took her time with me Inever felt rushed on under pressure. Being an older man with asthma, I appreciated How she chooses trails in Doi Inthanon National park that were appropriate and still allowed me to experience Thai nature and wild life to its fullest. Again takin time to explain the natural land ecosystem. I have had many Quine’s, but would have to say that she was one of the best.Will recommend her to all my friends and will book her again when I come back to thailand"

Good Food, great Evening
"Our experience was great, we tasted a lot of local foods and Wuthikorn explained all of it very well. He also told us a lot of things about the cultural background about the dishes. We’ve been in Thailand a few days already and tasted a lot of different dishes, but he showed us even more local insights. Overall it was a fantastic experience. Thank you!"

Day out of Chiang Mai
"This was our second day with Ae and despite the weather it was an excellent day out to Thailand’s highest mountain. Unfortunately, the weather at the top was very poor but Ae still made the day memorable by just talking about the countryside and the peoples life. We had an excellent lunch and were back in Chiang Mai on time in the evening as planned. Ae is an excellent guide speaks very good English and goes out of her way to bring her city alive to people. "

Day in Chiang Mai
"Ae is an excellent guide, engaging and with a genuine desire to show her guests the best of her city. Her English is excellent and she is very knowledgeable about Chiang Mai and the surrounding area. Ae responds very well to individual demands and made the private tour experience for my brother-in-law myself a very good introduction to the city of Chiang Mai. I would thoroughly recommend her ."

Perfect evening activity
"What a wonderful evening! We would like to thank May for this experience. We visited some parts of the old town and a temple. At night the temples are not crowded so very interesting to listen to May’s history stories. We visited some food markets and she made us taste authentic food that we would never order because we don’t know it. But it was so good! Really great! "
