Awesome - Excellent show. Awesome food. The even had vegetarian meals. Waiters were very attentive. The shows are very entertaining. The souvenir pics were only $3/100baht. We loved it. Also the street vendors outside have great prices for their clothings and souvenirs. 👍

Perfect Date Spot - This activity was such a treat from the busy chaos that can occur in Chiang Mai. When you arrive you will be seated at your dining area which has been set up for you based on the number of people in your party. You must be comfortable sitting on the ground for long periods of time though. They will take your drink order and then begin preparing your food. You get plenty enough food. And if you would like more of anything they will bring it for you. There were two of us in our party and we were unable to eat all of the foods. The food was really tasty. There wasn't anything that I thought was prepared poorly which can happen when you prepare large amounts of the same food. The show itself is just okay but it was interesting and entertaining to hear the music and see the traditional dances of each of the tribal people of Thailand.

Nice Event! - My mother and I attended this event. We were given a drink upon arrival, and escorted to our seat. This place operates very efficiently. As soon as we sat down, we were immediately brought a large variety of food. The show was fun. A lot of cultural dancing and singing. Very touristy, but we were tourists so we didn't mind at all!

Decent food, dull performance, poor service - The free shuttle was nice but took a while and the location is fairly remote so we spent over an hour riding in the van. The food was good but not great and personally served to your table with free refills for bowls you wanted more of. The food wait staff was fairly prompt but the drink staff [they are different people...?] were very slow [15mins+ for first drink, 10 minutes to catch them for second drink, another 15 minutes for second drink]. They were not busy but stood around talking to each other and playing on their phones. The show was lackluster. The buildings and stage area was nice and the costumes were good and authentic. But the performance was amateur and lacked excitement and development. It felt like a high-school play because the actors/dancers were all very young and seemed uninterested in the show. Each 'dance' just kind of ended without fanfare as they exited stage front and then another would start after a pause. All seats can see the show but there is definitely a VIP section along the stage where there are cushioned seats [all other seats are japanese-style hole under the table wooden seat with small pad] and could see the show better and interact with the actors. By the end of the hour [which seems short but felt long], the show is concluded. It was a nice night but everyone is ushered out and loaded onto vans so no lingering or getting another drink.
