Experience Day Trips in Chiang Mai with Withlocals

"We had a wonderful day with Kit. We immediately had a good connection and talked a lot about different things in life, from food creations to personal development. Kit was a monk for several years, and it was inspiring to hear about all his knowledge and experiences. The tour started at the Mae Ya Waterfall, which was amazing to see. After that, we did a jungle hike together with a guide from the hill tribe village. After the hike, we got to taste hill tribe coffee. It was a very nice hike and a great experience to surround yourself with so many beautiful plants and trees, and the sounds of nature. Then we had a very good lunch and went to see the pagodas. It was a fully guided day, and we want to thank Kit for this experience. We definitely did not want to miss this!"

"Had a lovely day on a private tour outside of Chiang Mai with Ratana. She was punctual, professional and her car was very comfortable. Her wide and in-depth knowledge of the area and sites was great. A real pleasure. "

"This was truly a beautiful tour with an excellent guide. Ae is super kind, welcoming and a great person to explore the surroundings of Chiang Mai. The tour includes several stops and it's great to have Ae as a local by your side. You get to see a side of Chiang Mai and the area which otherwise you probably wouldn't. The ride was perfectly planned, the drive from and back to the hotel also smooth. The lunch spot had the most amazing view and Ae had so much to teach me about the area. Highly recommend this tour, you will love it! Kun Ae, khoob kun ka, tschoog dii ka! "

"Naphat took us to the Doi Inthanon National Park and gave us so much more than a tour. She is knowledgeable, calm and quietly inspiring. Between waterfalls, forests and pagodas, she shared gentle life insights that has genuinely stayed with us. Her best advice was simple. When someone bothers you, just let it go. We left feeling peaceful, grateful and very glad we met her. The farm-to-cup village coffee micro-roastery was an experience we will never forget. Highly recommended. 💚"

"Our time with Naphat was fascinating and we valued her passionate explanations of her world. The cultural sights were intertwined with her experiences in Buddhism and we learned a great deal while enjoying our time together."

"We booked two tours with Wuthikorn, a city trip and Doi Inthanon. He was a perfect host, took great care of us and made us feel welcome in his city. He‘s a careful driver, knows how to beat the crowds to make your journey as comfortable as possible, shares stories and facts without overloading and makes the most of the time without rushing, perfect balance of teaching and giving you the freedom to have your own personal experience. Thank you, Wuthikorn, you created wonderful memories for us (and thank you for teaching us how to use the camera on our phones :) ), we made a new friend in Chiang Mai. "

"Boy (nickname) was an excellent tour guide through the mountains and villages of Doi Inthanon National Park. He made access through checkpoints efficient. Boy’s story telling and knowledge of Lanna history in ChiangMai was delightful as well as the respectful tales he told of the mountain village community. The coffee spots and hikes were greatly curated and guided. "

"Boy was so great to work with in planning a day tour to Doi Inthanon National Park. He was very communicative from the start when I shared what sites we really wanted to see since it’s impossible to see everything in the park in a day. We first hiked the Pha Dok Siao Nature Trail and a local guide who belongs to the Indigenous community in the park accompanied us. We got to learn a lot about the local flora and fauna and Boy took some amazing pictures of me and my Mom along the trail. We then had a coffee presentation where we tried local coffee made in the park a cascara tea (coffee shells), butterfly pea tea and another local herbal tea. We had an amazing lunch made from fresh ingredients grown in a garden in the park. Then the second half of our day was the Ang Ka Nature Trail (so magical!) and the highest point in Thailand as well as the Twin Pagodas and ending with the Wachirathan Waterfall. Thank you Boy for an amazing day in the park! We really enjoyed our time."

"Discovering the national park and local villages was very interesting, with a variety of viewpoints and cultural immersion, including the highest peak in Thailand. The temples we went to were impressive as well. What stood out most was connection I had with Nephat. We come from completely different worlds, yet fully resonated in both mind and spirit. It was the perfect fusion of East meets the West! She is an in depth spirit guide as well, connected to source, symbology, ancient Buddhist ways of life and perspective, with the ability to integrate all of this into modern day society. This was our common ground. Therefore, on an intellectual and spiritual level it was an exceptional day! I consider Naphat a part of my extended tribe now! "

"We booked a day trip in Chiang Mai with Naphat, and it was, without a doubt, the highlight of our trip. What we experienced went far beyond anything we could have expected. While we saw some beautiful sights, the true value of the day was the deep insight Naphat provided into the daily lives of the local people, the rich history of the region, and the current situation in Thailand. Naphat didn’t just show us places; she shared stories and perspectives that you simply won't find in any guidebook. Most importantly, my daughter and I were able to form a genuine, personal connection with her. She was incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, and warm-hearted. We felt like we were exploring the city with a local friend rather than a guide. This day was a truly special experience that both of us will cherish in our memories for a long time. If you are looking for an authentic, deep, and personal experience in Chiang Mai, we cannot recommend Naphat highly enough!"
