A Must Do In Chiang - This tour with our tour guide, Som, was one of the best we have done in Thailand. The communication pre pick up was excellent, it started and ended as scheduled, and the tour and information we received was outstanding! The guide and driver were top-notch. This is a must do in Chiang Mai!

Great tour of some major sights in Chiang Mai! - Had an amazing morning touring of three major temples. The guide was very kind and gave a very good explanation of everything and did a phenomenal job of pointing out all the highlights. There was also a nice opportunity to shop near one of the wats and enjoy some local coffee which made the morning tour even more fun! Highly recommend!

Great Guide/Driver Team - It;s hard to imagine a better duo than Guide Som and Driver PJ for a private custom tour of Chiang Mai. Som was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable about the various sites we visited, and able to communicate the information very effectively to us. Her English is excellent, and her manner very friendly and easy going. She was truly a delightful guide, with great skills and a sense of humor to ensure that we had a fun day. Driver PJ was always ready for us to be picked up, with an endless supply of bottled water and safe and careful driving. Som and PJ were truly a winning team for us, we would definitle recommend them and will utilize them again when we return!
