What travelers are saying
- suelovesanimalsGreater Hobart, Australia16 contributionsA lovely day trip out of Chiang Mai. Our guide MuMu and our driver Mr A could not have been more accommodating and professional. I would highly recommend this trip. Thankyou!!Written December 5, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Lauren H4 contributionsMy partner and I had an amazing time on this tour, guided by the charismatic and knowledgeable Tong. The experience was customised to our liking and pace, the temples themselves were stunning, but above all, Tong kept us laughing and had the answer to every question we threw at him. A truly unforgettable experience guided by a gem. Thank you Pagoda and Tong!Written December 5, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Sevilla1022Savannah, GA26 contributionsWe spend 16 days all over Thailand and this was the highlight of the entire trip. The proximity you get to the elephants in such a majestic and beautiful way was really something else. I enjoyed the nature hike down the waterfall to the Karin village as well. So many great photo opportunities. The guides do a fantastic job making sure that everyone gets pics. The guides were amazing. Shout out to Tuk Tuk and her mom who made or fantastic lunch. Best Pad Thai we had in country for sure. The entire day was unforgettable and memories we will cherish forever. I would also like to say that it was incredibly authentic. I highly recommend to anyone traveling to Chiang Mai.
ALSO - if you are even considering an excursion that involves riding or elephants DO NOT DO IT. Those elephants are not treated humanely. This is one of the good ones. You can feed them, bath them and touch them but they don’t over do it so the animals have time to rest and be elephants.Written December 6, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The White Temple (Wat Rong Khun) and the Blue Temple (Wat Rong Suea Ten) are both absolutely incredible. The White Temple feels surreal with its all-white design and insane details, while the Blue Temple has this deep, vibrant vibe that’s just mesmerizing.
But what really made this tour unforgettable was our guide, Pocorn. He’s the best guide ever!!!
no doubt about it. He’s super knowledgeable, funny, and knows how to make the whole group feel at ease. He brought the temples to life and made the experience so much better. If I could give more than five stars, I would.
If you’re going to visit these temples, make sure you get Pocorn as your guide. You’ll thank me later!Written December 4, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Only set back is : poor quality of lunch near White temple where all groups are gathered (old and run down restaurant / food selection not good / taste not good). I ended up ate only a bit.Written August 26, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- LeonaBrooklyn, NY7 contributionsOur private tour by Tong was amazing. He was attentive, friendly and nice enough to take photos of my me and my fiancé at the attraction stops. He carefully crafted the route to make sure we were able to beat the crowd (it was lantern festival weekend), and he did!! There were no one in our photos and it truly felt like a private tour. Thank you for the lovely experience 10/10Written November 16, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- 881davidw881Heswall, UK11 contributionsWent to a number of places during the day so it's a good value for money. I did have trouble understanding the guide .picked up on time and delivered back at predicted timeWritten December 6, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Michelle L4 contributionsWe had an amazing time! The elephants are extraordinary - it was fantastic that we were able to walk amongst them. This is something we could never do in the US.Written December 2, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Harjit K1 contributionIt was a good trip. Truly enjoyed the experience. However the tour guide needs to be more well-versed in English. Furthermore, the water bottles were only offered to us half-way through our journey when we had already purchased our drinks. The agency should also be more sensitive to those who are vegetarians for lunch.Written November 19, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Nehaa D1 contributionJimmy has immense knowledge about the culture and values of Thailand. He is aware of what it takes to be a good host to individuals who are exploring new horizons. He is kind, and holds beautiful space, entertaining and will make you laugh through the journey. Nick was wonderful as well with such amazing understanding of the needs of people he is supporting as Nick really kept in mind what vegans needed and if the restaurants were honoring that space appropriately as well. I am very thankful to both of them for providing a space where I could feel safe as a first time traveller.Written November 28, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Jeff S9 contributionsOur sunrise tour with ex-monk, Tom, was amazing. Sunrise at Wat Phra That Doi Sutrep was magical. We arrived early and avoided the crowds arriving later. Tom went out of his way to explain the role of monks, their education/training and role in the community.
Our tour took us to Wat Pha Lat, a peaceful mountain jungle setting. Tom described his time and training while he was a monk there.Written December 4, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We also enjoyed our visit to the village.Written December 1, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Carla RGloucester, UK42 contributionsOne of the best day trips we’ve been on! Our guide (sorry can’t remember his name) was super informative, friendly and kind, he really loves his job, we know because he told us, but he was also so happy throughout the whole day! Would highly recommend this trip to anyone wanting to get out of Chiang Mai city for the day. Thank you for such an amazing experience.Written November 24, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- LaurieBWinnweiler, Germany92 contributionsThis experience was by far one of the coolest things I have ever done in my life. You can tell how much the elephants are taken care of and loved. From the moment we first made contact we had top notch level surface. The time we got to spend with the elephants is something I will remember for the rest of my life.Written December 4, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
