    If you have limited time in northern Thailand, you can skip the Chiangrai tour as it’s too far and not as good as I expected

  2. Camille

    Long ride but incredible temples

  3. James

    The temples are amazing and unique! must visit!

  4. Georgia

    Three‑hour drive flew by thanks to comfy seats and a guide who peppered the ride with northern Thai legends. The White Temple (Wat Rong Khun) looked even more surreal in person—mirrored mosaics everywhere.
