Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"We ended up doing 2 full days with Mr Thep including going to the Golden Triangle. We really enjoyed the tours and the variety."
"Very relaxing, never rushed! I would highly recommend if you are visiting Chiang Rai!"
"The tour was exactly what we wanted and Tepthai was the perfect guide for us. The temples and The Baan Dam Museum are magnificent on any day, but the service provided by Tepthai really added to our experience. He arrived on time, provided very comfortable transportation, provided juice and water and even took us to a 'hidden' local restaurant for lunch. This tour and Tepthai are highly recommended."
"Mr Thep took us all the places we wanted to see as well as a few places he knew of that we did not …which we were happy happy to experience… He looked out for us , made sure we had water , drove safely etc He gave us additional information about the sites , patiently answered our questions and never rushed us.. "
"We spent 5 hours exploring temples of Chiang Rai with Thep. It was better than we had even hoped. He let us go at our speed and engaged in such a great way. He gave us time to take in what we were seeing, shared helpful information, took great photos of the 2 of us, made the whole day so smooth. His truck was a great way to get around and he took us to a hidden gem of the best vegan restaurant with Thai food!! Delicious!! We really appreciated the time we spent with him. He also made sure we stayed hydrated! Thep has 25+ years of experience in giving tours, most of it focused on Chiang Rai and is a member of Lahu and Akha hill tribes. (Side note) Thep also does home stays in his village about 15km outside Chiang Rai if you want that experience. Had we known about that before we probably would have done it. You want to book with him! If we had more time we would book with him again. If we return we definitely will! "

"We had a wonderful afternoon and evening with Thep. He picked us up at our hotel, drove us to the white temple. We drove through the nice countryside which was great and an additional add on. Back in Chiang Rai we toured different markets and tried different delicious food. He was also very pleasant with our two little boys. Would definitely recommend touring with Thep!"
"Tepthai, Was on time and provided local insight into numerous topics. He was knowledgable, friendly, and patient helping along the way with photos and local information. I liked how he let us go at our pace without rushing or hurrying us along even allowing us to do our thing but always close by. "
"We got a specialized tour to some of the top attractions of Chiang Rai. Tep came up with a suggested tour adapted to our interests. Thank you for this wonderful day! "
"My 83 year old father in law and I had a lovely time with Khun Thep. He was very friendly, engaging, knowledgeable and in the limited time we had delivered exactly what we had asked for. Highly recommended."
"We were 2 couples and we had a wonderful time with Thep. He took us to Buffalo Hill, White Temple, Big Buddha, Lallita Cafe, Black House and Blue Temple. Thep was a fantastic host! Courteous with his knowledge and time. A very comfortable and safe driver too. Thank you Thep for a wonderful day! "
