Mumu y tom
We had a fantastic experience with Mumu as our guide! She took us to discover some beautiful waterfalls, and we really enjoyed hiking with her. What stood out the most was her kindness, friendliness, and dedication to explaining everything along the way, always making sure we were enjoying ourselves and learning throughout the excursion. She also taught us several useful Thai words and expressions, which made the experience even more special. It was a wonderful trip and we would highly recommend it! Thank you, Mumu, for your warmth, enthusiasm, and dedication, and for making our day so memorable. 😊

Great experience
We did this tour today and, even with rainfall and low cloud which effected some visibility, we still had an awesome day. The guide was top notch and the driver made us feel that we were in safe hands.

First Class tour!
Moo Moo was absolutely fantastic and made an already brilliant day at Doi Inthanon even better. She was warm, funny, incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about everything she showed us, from the Karen village and local plants to the history, wildlife and forests of the mountain. She never made it feel like we were being dragged through a rehearsed tour script, and instead spent the whole day chatting with us, answering questions and pointing out things we would never have noticed on our own. By the end of the day it felt much more like exploring Chiang Mai with a very knowledgeable friend than being taken around by a tour guide. If you're lucky enough to get Moo Moo as your guide, you're going to have a fantastic day.

Amazing waterfall and mountain tour!
This was a really fantastic tour of the key highlights in the mountains around Chiang Mai- our guide Moo Moo was amazing and very knowledgeable- we asked. A lot of questions and she was able to address all of them- she also added interesting details about the people in the village we visited. Our driver Kao was very safe and skilled as well

A special day at Doi Inthanon
Wow! What a wonderful day with Mumu and Tom visiting Doi Inthanon area. It was a day of highlights. First the lovely waterfall then the visit to the Karen village was truly special. Such a wonderful setting that included a delicious and generous lunch. The rain while we were there just added to the atmosphere! The walks at the top of the mountain and the King and Queen pagodas were all delightful. Mumu cease incredibly interesting. I learned so much about the Karen and Thai culture and lifestyle from her. She really loves her job! Tom was also a very experienced and considerate driver. Back at my hotel now tired but happy!

A great day!!
We spent the day with Mumu and Tom and they were wonderful. The tour was great, very informative and they were both very kind. From beginning to end, Mumu was very engaging and interactive. It was a private tour for us which made the tour even more personable. Thank you thank you thank you for a wonderful experience.
