Thanks to his well-thought-out plan, we managed to avoid crowds at every stage of the trip, which made it even more special. Koko’s extensive knowledge of local culture and the surrounding nature helped me greatly expand my understanding of Thailand. Highly recommended!”

Review of Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai temples, hot springs, Karen village, and Lalitta Cafe, with honest advice on timing, value, and options.

“We started at the longneck village which was kind of just looking around a market. The people there were very happy to have pictures taken with them though. The hot springs was next which were pretty cool, like Wells that exploded with hot water every couple of seconds. The white temple was stunning and had plenty of information around to explain pieces aswell as two art galleries. The inside of the white temple was very surprising but spectacular. The blue temple was smaller in comparison but still very detailed and cool. The red temple we got a lift up to the Buddha then hopped into the lift to get all…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 182 reviews · from $50

Review of Krabi’s Emerald Pool, hot springs, and Tiger Cave Temple tour, with costs, climb advice, itinerary details, and booking tips.

“This was a cool experience and overall I am glad we did it, but I was expecting more. There was alot of travel time on this tour so you are in the van for a long period of time throughout the day. The Emerald Pool & the Hot Springs are so beautiful and cool to see, but not that big so you are just kind of sitting around during your time at each. Also the Tiger Cave Temple is a hike up stairs, so if you decide not to do that, there is not much else to do on the ground while you are waiting. Our guide was very nice…”

“Widoki są piękne. Wybraliśmy opcję romantycznej kolacji z butelką wina. Zakładałam, ze skoro jest odrębnie wyszczególniona ta opcja, to możemy liczyć na jakieś wyjątkowe dekoracje stołu itd. Zgłaszam też pisemnie, że jest to kolacja urodzinowa. Na wejściu otrzymaliśmy pierwszy lepszy stolik, nie był jakoś szczególnie przygotowany. Otrzymałam bukiet kwiatów - został położony na stole przy końcu kolacji, tak jakby obsługa zapomniała. Dodatkowo miałam swoje kwiaty, było duże zamieszanie aby znaleźć miejsce aby je postawić. Kelnerka była bardzo sympatyczna i profesjonalna. Jedzenie było raczej średnie, nic wyjątkowego, bez efektu wow, ale nie narzekamy. Myślę że na randomową kolację miejsce jest...”
