About CMGT
Local-led tours of Chiang Mai since 2012.
Chiang Mai Go Tours is a small, family-run operator based in the old city. We launched in 2012 with three friends, one beat-up van, and a stack of homemade itineraries. The van is gone. The friends — and the itineraries — are still here.
Today we run 34 tours across Northern Thailand, from sunrise temple loops in the old city to multi-day treks through Karen and Lahu villages. Every tour on this site is ours: never resold to a third party, never operated by anyone we haven't worked with for years.
