Seeing the Black House was an amazing experience. Such ministry, beauty and tribalism blended into one.
The tour guide was informative and showed great respect for the communities we visited. However, I would recommend checking the details of the tour in advance, as it involves some traveling. Overall, the Golden Triangle and Long Neck Karen tour was a unique and enriching experience that I would highly recommend to anyone seeking to explore the hidden gems of Northern Thailand
Worst driver didn’t came my money didn’t refund yet Tripadvisor didn’t call back after booking confirmation didn’t get any text messages
I did a private tour and the guide was really nice, one of the temples wasn’t open, but he adapted and made sure i saw something else that wasn’t originally on the planned tour. I had a really good time and it was informative.
