Reisroute
Ontspan bij Mae Khachan Hot Spring. De plaats ligt langs de weg van Chiang Mai naar Chiang Rai. Dit is een beroemde pitstop waar je je voeten kunt laten weken in hete baden of wat eieren kunt koken in de natuurlijke warmwaterbronnen.
Wat Rong Khun, bekend als de "Witte Tempel", is een kunsttentoonstelling in de vorm van een boeddhistische tempel. De tempel is ontworpen door een zeer beroemde Thaise kunstenaar, de heer Chalermchai Kositpipat. Je kunt foto's maken met prachtige sculpturen die boeddhistische overtuigingen uitbeelden. Je luncht in een lokaal restaurant in de buurt van de tempel.
Wat Rong Seur Ten, ook wel Blue Temple genoemd, is ontworpen door Phutha Kabkaew in hedendaagse kunstmode. Met het blauwe en gouden kleurenthema, levendige muurschilderingen en verbluffend mooie sculpturen is Wat Rong Seur Ten een van de beroemdste plekken in Chiang Rai.
Baan Dam Museum, ook bekend als het "Black House Museum" of "Black Temple", is ontworpen door een beroemde Thaise kunstenaar "Thawan Duchanee". De plaats is gemaakt in een onconventionele architectuur in Noord-Thaise stijl, versierd met uniek mooi houtsnijwerk.

The trip is quite lengthy. The mini van was packed and not comfortable. The guide was just saying that we arrived at the point of “ABC” and couple of more sentences, otherwise it was always free time to explore. I was expecting more information about the objects and places from the guide. As now it looked like the expensive driver hired for a day. Also the hot spring place is just two big wells without possibility to soak your legs. The Karen village is sad view as well, it is not educational. It is like a human zoo with sales goods from China :(

Long day, but totally worth it! We had a great guide who took tons of photos for us. We really enjoyed all the stops.
Thank you for your review. We’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed the experience.
Andy was a great tour guide. He took amazing photos of myself and people in my group. I highly recommend this tour as it covers so many areas it is a long tour since you are going to the golden triangle, but it is worth it. I would do this trip all over again!!
Thank you for your review. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the experience. Your kind words will be shared with Mr. Andy, and he will be very happy to know that his efforts were appreciated.
Very long day but there was lots to see. The White Temple was a highlight! It was also quite hot, so eating ice cream was a hit. Our guide and driver were very nice, punctual and organized. That said, our guide’s English was limited and our driver was a bit fast/reckless on our return to Chiang Mai. We left at 7am and returned at 9:30pm. Absolutely great (but exhausting) day.
Thank you for your review. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the experience. Your comments regarding the tour guide and the driver will be forwarded to the relevant person for review and improvement.
Most of the stops were interesting. It’s a shame the guide didn’t provide more information. The whole day was let down by extremely erratic dangerous driving at high speeds and overtaking multiple cars on blind corners. After three passengers decided they couldn’t risk continuing with this driver and caught a Grab home for the last 90 minutes of the drive, we asked the driver to be more cautious and thankfully he did. A long day which could have been made more enjoyable with a friendlier and bubblier guide and safer driver. Only one bottle of water offered for the entire 14 hr trip.
Thank you very much for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We sincerely apologize for the aspects of the tour that did not meet your expectations, particularly regarding the driving experience, guide engagement, and overall comfort during a long day. Please be assured that we take all complaints very seriously and use them as an opportunity for real improvement. Safety is our top priority, and your concerns about the driving behavior have been forwarded to the tour operator for thorough review and corrective action. Your comments regarding the guide’s level of information, friendliness, and the limited water provided will also be carefully reviewed to improve our service standards. We would also like to kindly clarify one point for transparency. Drinking alcohol on the van is strictly not permitted for safety reasons. During the tour, three guests chose to consume beer on the vehicle, and when the tour guide politely asked them to stop, they decided to continue their journey back to Chiang Mai by Grab instead, as they wished to keep drinking until arrival. This decision was made by the guests themselves. That said, we truly value your feedback and are committed to making meaningful improvements to ensure future guests enjoy a safer, more informative, and more pleasant experience. Thank you again for bringing these matters to our attention.
Of the excursions between Chiang Mai and Bangkok this was the best of them...A day full of admiring wonderful places! Note 10 to the White Temple and the Golden Triangle...if you like crochet this is the best place to buy the bags and hats...lindos!!! Our APPLE guide is adorable...her kindness, her explanations...she was 10! I just found the lunch bad...note zero! Very bad...Better leave it free or get a better place!
Obrigado pela sua avaliação. Ficamos felizes por saber que gostou da experiência. As suas amáveis palavras serão transmitidas à Apple, o guia turístico.
Overall we don't think this tour is worth it. We spent A LOT of time on the road (understandably since we left from Chiang Mai to get all the way to Chiang Rai), but weren't rewarded for it really. The white temple and black house are quite unimpressive in person, they're just buildings rich people created with no deeper meaning. Especially the black house was very dull to visit. The golden triangle is interesting only for the fun fact that you can see coasts of three countries, but at the same time there's nothing of essence there. The Karen village is just a tourist market basically. On top of that, the van used didn't have comfortable seats, especially mine was so narrow I had to sit sideways for my legs to fit, and I'm barely 5'11. That was very unpleasant when you are spending 7h in said van. Our guide was very nice and tried to give us a lot of information, but that was the only nice thing from the tour. Sadly, 100% would NOT recommend.
Thank you for taking the time to share your honest feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations, although we appreciate your kind words about our guide. Regarding your comment about the van, we sincerely apologize for the discomfort you experienced during the long journey. Your feedback about the seating and overall comfort will be taken into serious consideration and shared with the van contractor for improvement, especially given the length of this route from Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai. We would also like to provide some context regarding the Black House Museum (Baan Dam). The Black House is owned and created by Mr. Thawan Duchanee, one of Thailand’s most renowned national artists. Rather than being a traditional temple, it is an artistic and philosophical space that reflects themes of life, death, human nature, and Buddhist concepts through architecture, sculptures, and symbolism. Its darker tone and unconventional style are intentional, designed to provoke thought and interpretation rather than visual beauty alone. While we understand that this style may not appeal to everyone, it holds significant artistic and cultural value in Thailand. We recognize that this tour involves a long travel time and focuses more on cultural landmarks and symbolic sites rather than immersive activities. We regret that the experience did not align with your personal interests and expectations. Thank you again for sharing your feedback. It is valuable to us and helps future travelers better understand the nature of this tour while allowing us to continue improving our services.
This was a long day out and was way too rushed. The white temple was very very crowded and we had 45 minutes there so did not get to see all that we wanted to. The black museum we felt was unnecessary and the time allocated would be better used at the white temple. The boat trip was pleasant but you went up and down the river and everyone looked very underwhelmed. The journey back was 3.5 hrs and we were shattered. Not a trip we would recommend I’m sorry to say
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We regret that the long day and rushed pace detracted from your experience. The total travel time (including the 3.5-hour return journey) is necessary for this comprehensive itinerary to Chiang Rai, and these details are provided on the tour page. The Black House and River Cruise are typically enjoyed by guests as they offer unique cultural contrasts and a relaxing break, which many find highly enjoyable. We apologize this was not the case for you and we appreciate your review.
A very full (but long) day giving a great whistle stop tour of the Chiang Mai. Area. We enjoyed the White and Blue Temples, the Karen Tribe and the river trip despite appalling weather the whole day, I imagine it would be wonderful on a beautiful day. Lunch was good and our driver felt very safe. Considering what we paid we felt we had very good value.
Thank you for your review. We are glad to know that you liked the experience.
This tour is a long day, but it is definitely worth it! Temples are definitely worth a visit and if you ask questions, you can learn a lot. It is also interesting to visit the Golden Triangle and learn more about the challenges of this area where three countries meet only separated by water.
Merci pour votre avis. Nous sommes heureux de savoir que vous avez apprécié l'expérience.
