A thoughtful and seamless Chiang Mai day tour with Mr. Noom and Mr. Boo - AP Good at Travel (1-Day Chiang Mai customised Tour with Mr. Noom & Mr. Boo)
We spent a full day in Chiang Mai with Mr. Noom from AP Good Travel, and it became one of the most memorable days of our trip. Noom is warm, thoughtful, and genuinely passionate about showing the real Chiang Mai.
Throughout the day, he customised the experience around what we enjoyed — exploring the Old City, visiting significant temples, learning simple but meaningful Buddhist ideas, and enjoying local food including a delicious bowl of Khao Soi. He also arranged a peaceful one-hour river cruise, which was a perfect break in the afternoon.
We later visited a refugee community of the long-neck women from Myanmar — an eye-opening experience that Noom handled with respect and clear explanation. On a lighter note, Noom helped us understand and experience Thailand’s legal cannabis culture in a responsible, safe way that matched local rules.
A special highlight was Noom’s love for photography. He shared practical tips on angles, framing, and helped us take much better photos throughout the day. He provided us some of our best photos :)
We also want to recognise Mr. Boo, our driver. His quiet thoughtfulness kept the entire tour flowing smoothly. He was always ready at each stop, making every transition effortless. Having him there meant we could relax completely and enjoy the day without any logistical stress.
Messrs Noom and Boo make a great team — professional, kind, and easy to spend time with.
We highly recommend AP Good Travel, Mr. Noom, and Mr. Boo to anyone looking for a personal, meaningful, and well-organised Chiang Mai experience. Thank you both for a wonderful day.

A Great Way to Experience Chiang Mai - An amazing trip, made better by a great tour guide (Ms Bee) and a great driver (Bo). The van was clean and spacious. Ms Bee clearly knows her stuff and was engaging and pleasant for the whole day. The restaurant she chose for lunch was very good as well. Absolutely and positively a great way to get to experience Chiang Mai!

A Comprehensive Tour of Chiang Mai - We had a great day on our tour of Chiang Mai with Gobi. We saw a lot in a fairly short time, including things we probably would not have thought to visit otherwise, like the farm house and the local market. Our guide (Gobi) was great and very knowledgeable. The tour was well paced and didn’t feel rushed. The driver and guide were very attentive, provided water and explanations. Lunch and ice cream were delicious too. All in all a great day to get a full overview of Chiang Mai.

Highly recommend - Very enjoyable and informative trip. Excellent guide who shared his knowledge of the history and culture of Chiang Mai. Perfect combination of three temples, a delicious lunch and a relaxing boat trip back to the city. Enjoyed trying Khao Soi for the first time with our guide explaining the dish and how to add additional flavourings to our individual tastes.

Could Not Have Been Better - Our guide Noi? Noy? Was very knowledgeable and enthusiastically shared the history of Chiang Mai on the way to and from the temple. A visit to the Wat would not have been the same without her detailed explanations of both this specific temple and Buddhism in general. We were able to tour at what felt like a leisurely pace and yet remain on time. The river cruise was a nice escape from the city streets and the lunch at the end of the cruise was some of the best food I ate during my entire visit to Chiang Mai!
