Amazingly Great - Toni who organized my trip was amazing! Chang Mai and Chang Rai is a definitely a must travel destination with many amazing temples. My favorite was the white and blue temple. Toni was very accomodating to my travel needs and was even able to customize 1 day of my itinerary with a very affordable cost. Tum Tum, Sara, and Susie were my favorite tour guides. Sara was very funny and Susie made my trip to Hinoki Land a great experience! Tum Tum was great with my Chang Mai temple tours. Sara was great with the Chang Rai tours. And Susie with my customized tour. They were all great, very nice, and informative tour guides. If you want to travel Thailand and Cambodia definitely book directly with Indochina Tours. I had booked my trip with another agency just to find that the agency I booked connects with Indochina tour. I would have booked directly with Indochina tours had I known their website ahead of time. Toni was very accomodating and informed me of the time of pick up on every tour. I definitely recommend them. It was a very pleasant trip and enjoyed every day! It was a memorable trip I will never forget. I will definitely come back to Thailand, this time to Phuket and Krabi and will book with Indochina Tour directly.

Beyond Wonderful - Our guide , Mr Kong was kind, gracious, tremendously helpful. This was one of the best tours we have been on: seeing the tribespeople’s, going to the borders, magnificent lunch w Mr Kong by Laos border. He is thoroughly familiar. He is gracious and magnanimous; a delightful guide. We respected his efforts; while we added to our tour and tipped handsomely, he was completely eager to assist. I really loved this adventure

Women taking on Thailand. - Chiang Mai is spectaculars the food is great, people are warm and lots to do. Has door massages or a Thai massage every day while in Chiang Mai. The night markets are fun to attend. Highly recommend Smart Elephant Experience and Grandma’s Cooking cool. As women traveling together we felt safe.

Great tour - My wife and I took the tour just yesterday, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Our guide Parn explained everything very well, and timed our activities so we were able to see everything without rushing. Although most areas were pretty crowded, she knew a few places where we could escape the crowds.

Book if u want to spend some quality time :) - The trip was amazing. We really enjoyed to talk to the guide. Every point of the trip was covered with good explanation. The guide knows english well and he answered on all our questions. We recommend to take this trip to explore some important part of Thailand.

Informative but sad - First of all, our guide was first-rate- very knowledgeable with a knack for keeping us comfortable. The Longneck Karen portion began as a grueling gauntlet through elder tribes people haranguing us to buy their “handmade” overpriced trinkets that were really China-made junk. I feel sad that they were reduced to this to live. Later, there was another tribe that had some beautiful, real hand-woven scarves that inspired me to purchase. They were much more low-key. Still, I don’t know how much I’d like being on display. We also visited the Opium Museum and learned the history of opium production, trade, war and human devastation. Informative but sad.

Informative but sad at times - The Long Neck Karen village started out as a tortuous gauntlet through tribal elders shouting at you to buy their “handmade” stuff that was really China crap. What a sad reduction of their culture. Once past that, there really was some handmade woven scarves that were beautiful, as well as children learning in a school. Still, I wonder how they feel about being on display. The visit to the Opium Museum was fascinating but also sad. To have a plant so beautiful with marvelous medical properties yet so easily abused for greed, war and leaves you wondering if it should have been eradicated.

Mr. Kongla is the best!! - We has a great day with many memorable impressions in the Northern tip of Thailand. Especially around the Golden Triangle you can sense the eventful history. And most of all our driver/guide Mr. Kongla was great. Very food driver, knowledgable guide and most of all so kind and friendly. When in Chang Rai try to book a tour with him!
