The lunch was decent and the tour guide (Amy) and the driver did their best to keep us informed. The local guide for the trek was very sweet and tried very hard to inform us about the flora and fauna inspite of her limited English.”

Oliver was our guide, he made sure to inform us about stops, restrooms/food breaks in advance which I really appreciate. For the main trek, there was another guide who couldn't communicate in English due to which we couldn't get much info on the trail, flora-fauna. He tried his best though. The trek was moderate and we were given breaks when exhausted. Lunch was provided with option of Veg/Non Veg. It was basic,…”

He was so patient, and always ensured we were comfortable in the car, and ensuring our valuables were taken care of. 10/10 would recommend! Thank you so much for the memories Tim!”

From Chiang Mai: High Mountain Day Trek

15.From Chiang Mai: High Mountain Day Trek

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 119 reviews · 7h 30m · from $73

Spend about 7.5 hours outside Chiang Mai on a guided mountain trek of at least 4.5 kilometers. Walk jungle trails, learn about local plants, eat homemade Thai food, visit a village, and stop at Wat Ban Den. Guides such as Sap are praised for their English and easygoing style. Pickup, water, snacks, lunch, and transport are included.

“Very well organised hiking with excellent guider named Sap - funny, a lot of interesting details about nature, culture not only Thai people but something about northern neighbours. I didn’t read details and thought that is a at least 30% demanding hiking so for me enthusiasts this was easy walk. People in group were fully distanced, awkward feeling - in one moment I asked myself- why they go in group instead of individual guided trip - but that’s nothing with organisation.”
