A great experience - This was a fun experience led by Del who was friendly, knowledgeable and had excellent English. His insights and stories kept our whole family interested including 2 teenagers. All the practical arrangements worked well with 2 tuk tuks for our family if 4, no issues meeting at the starting point of the tour or communicating by what’s app.

Chiang Mai tour - We had a family of 4, they sent two Tuk Tuk vehicles. Our tour guide was Pongsakorn. We started by visiting several temples. He had a lot of passion for the temples and Buddhism. We learned a lot. His devotion was inspiring. We also visited a market where he described many items for sale. We enjoyed a great day.

James and Sunny were both... - James and Sunny were both our tour guides and they were both incredible! They were very accommodating to our family of 6 (2 adults and 4 kids, ages 7-17). It was a lovely afternoon and we learned so much about the area, Buddhism, and Thailand’s history. I strongly recommend both James and Sunny and this tour in particular when visiting the Chiang Mai area. Thank you!!!
