Aryu is one of the best guides we have ever had over many years of travelling. A+++ - Our day spent with Aryu in the jungle was a pleasant surprise. Instead of the usual cliche guided trek with all the BS, Aryu only did what we were interested in and tailored our trip exactly to our requests.
The hike was in a beautiful mountainous area without any other tour groups around and his knowledge of the flora and fauna was excellent without being tedious.
I still can't believe how good the food was that he prepared using only basic goods procured from the local village and cooking utensils he made from bamboo.
Aryu made what I would typically dread (a guided tour in SEA) and provided us with one of the highlights of our month spent in Thailand. We couldn't be happier. Definitely worth it.

Excellent experience and opportunity to see life outside the cities - This was a super fun hike in the jungle with a traditional lunch. Our guides James and Wat were great. We learned a ton about the local villages and hill tribe people, the jungle, and surrounding area. The lunch was very tasty too! Definitely a worthwhile experience! Most tourists don’t see this part of Thailand and we feel so fortunate that we did. Some fitness is required so may not be for everyone.

A Trip Highlight - One of our trip highlights! Our leaders, Wat and James Bond, were entertaining and helpful. This is quite a challenging hike due to rocks, mud and heat so not for anyone questioning their ability. Lunch was absolutely delicious. My only suggestion would be to shorten the day a bit by skipping the hot springs.

Great days trekking - We were lucky and had a tour group of just two. Eat was a great guide and had a great sense of humour and great English. The bush cooked meal using bamboo was delicious. I would highly recommend this company.

A BEAUTIFUL KOURNEE - A really great treck with beautiful scenery, very friendly guides, info along the way and a meal cooked in surprising bamboo 😜.
We have covered more than 9 kms with coasts and trails surrounded by nature, so you have to be in shape to enjoy this day to the fullest.

Bush Bashing and Bamboo Cooking - The bamboo lunch, from preparation to cooking to eating, was a real surprise. Unforgettable and very tasty. The trek included great views, an invigorating dip in a waterfall and relatively natural village visits. The guides were fun, helpful and expert navigators (and bush bashers!). The handmade chopsticks are now a treasured possession.

Exiting hike - Hike in the rainforest was really exciting. Our guide and chef were very funny guys and the food was delicious.
We would recommend bringing with you at least two liters of water. Long pants and hiking boots would be good as well. Some level of fitness is needed because the trail contains several ascents (we did around 500 m).

Amazing One-Day Trek with Bamboo Cooking and Waterfall in Chiang Rai - We had an unforgettable experience on this one-day trekking tour in Chiang Rai! Our guide, James, was fantastic—he had so much knowledge about the different local peoples and their traditions, and he shared it with us in such an engaging way. He also knew a lot about the plants and nature around us, explaining different species as we walked through the beautiful landscape.
The highlight of our tour was definitely the bamboo cooking and the waterfall. The bamboo cooking was absolutely fascinating—we finally understood how this traditional technique works, and it was amazing to see how simple yet effective it is. The food was delicious, and it was surprising how easily it could be prepared using bamboo.
The waterfall was breathtaking, the perfect place to cool off and take in the beauty of nature. Throughout the trek, James was incredibly patient and never rushed us, allowing us to take small breaks whenever we needed them. His calm and relaxed attitude made the whole experience even more enjoyable.
If you’re looking for an authentic and immersive trekking experience in Chiang Rai, we highly recommend this tour!

A great day out - This was a great day, away from the bustle and we were looked after well by Mo and Wat. More of a mini hike, than just a walk, there were a few short steep sections and boulders to scramble around, but Mo ensured that the pace was relaxed with plenty of water breaks. We learned a lot about the trees and crops we passed by, especially bamboo. The day’s highlight was lunch where all the utensils were made from bamboo either along the walk or at the lunch stop. A real memory made from my time in Thailand.
