Explore Chiang Mai

Chiang Mai, tucked into the forested mountains of northern Thailand, is a former Lanna kingdom capital. With ancient temples, misty hills, and artisan villages, Chiang Mai offers a peaceful contrast to the bustle of Bangkok. Chiang Mai weather varies by season, with the cool, dry months from November to February being ideal for outdoor adventures and temple visits. Top things to do in Chiang Mai include exploring the Old City, visiting mountaintop Doi Suthep, and wandering Chiang Mai night markets, where food, crafts, and local charm come together every evening. One highlight is the city shines during the Chiang Mai Lantern Festival, when thousands of glowing lanterns float into the night sky—a truly magical sight.

Reviews: Doi Inthanon National Park Day Tour [Optional Hiking]

Everything was great, except for the pickup and drop-off. Because our hotel was a kilometer from the Old Town, we had to leave at 7 a.m. to go to another location, which was problematic. Otherwise, the tour was good.

Reviews: Chiang Mai Night Safari Day Tour [Includes Hotel Transfer + Admission Ticket + Attraction Sightseeing Bus]

The driver arrived at the pick-up point an hour early, catching everyone off guard. However, it proved to be a good idea to leave earlier, otherwise, you wouldn't be able to see all the shows. The itinerary within the park was very rushed; I strongly recommend taking a taxi if possible. The journey there took 1 hour and 40 minutes, picking up four groups of people, largely wasting time waiting for others on the road, and then taking a long detour on the highway to reach the zoo. The zoo's schedule is very tight; you have to strictly adhere to the schedule and rush through each show. The Tiger Show was completely unnecessary; the space was too small, and there were too many people. There was only one show at 5 PM. The dance performance was actually the most unique, and the fountain was decent, with added lights and projections. The animal and cowboy shows were rather average, and the staff made several mistakes, though they seemed quite used to it. The most impressive close encounter with the animals was with the giraffe; there weren't many other animal species, and they were really hard to see at night, but the tour bus only allowed one ride per animal. It's best to see the animals when it's light. We departed at 2 PM and returned at 7:40 PM, which was fairly punctual. The order page should have the time information adjusted; customer service didn't provide the time or vehicle license plate number, even though the foreigners in the same vehicle had license plates. It was okay for killing time; watching the animals was quite therapeutic. Chimelong Safari Park is probably better, so the price here is a bit high. The original price was 1200 baht including the tour bus, and it featured both herbivores and carnivores, with many animals being the same species.
