Amazing family-friendly experience in Chiang Mai! - We had a great experience and highly recommend this tour, especially thanks to our wonderful guide Layla. Everything was well organized, on time, and the group was small, which made it very enjoyable.
We were traveling with a 2.5-year-old child, and the tour was totally family-friendly. Layla was very knowledgeable, friendly, and always happy to answer questions. She explained the temples and their history clearly and made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable.
Highlights included visiting the main temple, the Hidden Temple, hiking the Monk Trail, and meeting a monk who blessed us with holy water and a good-luck bracelet. We used the funicular, which was very convenient.
Layla created a warm and relaxed atmosphere, and my niece loved the experience. Highly recommended. Don't hesitate to book!

Fantastic tour of three temples - We were picked up promptly and driven to Doi Suthep for sunrise followed by two additional temples. It was an early morning, but well worth it! Our guide was knowledgeable, patient and kind.

The Doi Suthep & Wat Pha... - The Doi Suthep & Wat Pha Lat sunrise tour was an amazing experience. Watching the sunrise over Chiang Mai was absolutely breathtaking, and the early start made it peaceful and uncrowded. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and created a calm atmosphere for reflection at the temples. A perfect mix of nature, culture, and spirituality — highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Chiang Mai!

Wonderful experience and great value - We very much enjoyed our experience going to Doi Suthep to see the sunrise.
We had a lovely guide who spoke very good English. Visiting the 3 places works well as they are so different and being up the mountain to watch the sun come up over chiang mai was very special.
We also bought alms to give to the monks there, who then chanted us all a blessing.
Only criticism would be that our guide didn't really give us instructions about the alms beforehand so we felt a bit silly and sort of followed others that were there too.
We really loved Wat Pha Lat in the forest - so peaceful and atmospheric, we'd have liked to stay longer but at least got a good look round on this trip.

A must see and do - This is a MUST so my favorite thing I did in Chiang Mai. It was early but that also meant we were at the temple before anyone else. Had the place to ourselves. Watched the sunrise and then saw two other amazing temples. Loved our guide. He was kind,funny and knowledgeable.

Sunset temple tour - Best temple tour of all the ones we did as it had a mix of new and old. Pick up was as described and communication from the guide was excellent.
