Chiang Rai Day Trip
Tour Details
Meet us at 2-6 Rachadamnoen Rd, and we'll set off on our exciting day trip adventure to Chiang Rai, surrounded by Thailand’s stunning natural landscapes!
Following our comfortable 3-hour ride, we'll set the tone for the day with a visit to the relaxing hot springs at Mae Kajan. The warm mineral waters of the natural springs are believed to hold special healing powers, so be sure to bring your bathing suit!
Next, we’ll visit the Long Neck Hill Tribe Village, famous for its unique tradition of wearing brass rings to elongate women’s necks, a practice symbolizing beauty. We’ll learn about the origins and cultural significance of this tradition. If you prefer to skip this visit, a nearby café offers a relaxing spot for a short break.
Continuing onwards, we'll reach the striking White Temple, so named for its gleaming pure white architecture. Alongside our guide, we'll learn all about the intricate features of the temple paying close attention to the glass work, meant to represent Buddha's wisdom.
From here, we'll move on to the Blue Temple, known for its striking blue facades and golden accents. The temple is a visual feast for the eyes, with towering dragon sculptures and colorful adornments.
Lastly, we'll arrive at Hauyplakang Temple, famous for its 9-tiered pagoda. Each tier features Buddha statues, and as we ascend, we’ll also encounter the statue of Guan Yin, the Goddess of Mercy. Our reward waits at the top, where sweeping panoramas of Thailand's lush, green landscape sprawl out in front of us.
Following this final stop, we'll head back to the starting point, bringing our experience to an end 11 to 12 hours later.
