- We had a wonderful time with Gobi today. He was very warm and witty which made the trip very enjoyable. He was particularly knowledgeable about tribal culture and took the time to explain details to us. Thank you so much for a memorable trip!

We just returned from our... - We just returned from our tour with Nui and Boo and had an amazing visit to the Hill Tribes. We were a bit nervous if our visit would be intrusive and/ or unauthentic, but it was quite the opposite. We learned so much about not only the Hill peoples’ experiences, but also Nui’s since he grew up in the country. Both driver and guide treated us so kind ( water, wet cloths ) and even took us on an additional stop to a wonderful bee product company. We enjoyed their company so much we are hoping to fit in another tour with them. Truly a fun and educational trip you won’t forget!!

Excellent Chiang Mai tour guides - We took three trips whilst in Chiang Mai being expertly guided by Gobi and safely driven by Mr Boo. We would highly recommend them if you are looking for excellent, amusing and above all knowledgeable guides.

Once In A Lifetime Experience - This week my wife and I went on the Half Day Long Neck Hill Tribe and Hmong Hill Tribe tour by private car. We were fortunate enough to have Mr Gobi as our tour guide for the 3rd time (upon our request). I have to say this was one of the best tours we have ever been on and was made even better by having Mr Gobi as our guide. We would never have been able to experience what we did, on our own, without attending this tour. Mr Gobi showed us all of the crops that the Hmong grew then took us into one of the Hmong villagers houses which was a very special experience. Follow that we headed to the Karon Long neck tribe village which again was a very special experience. We found Mr Gobi to be easy going and friendly with a great sense of humour which kept us entertained. He felt more like a friend than a tour guide by the end. We’d also like to give our driver, Mr Boo a shout out as he was an extremely careful driver who managed to navigate the windy roads to our destinations and return us safely back to our hotel. We highly recommend this tour!
