What people love about Thailand Tours from Chiang Mai
Fabulous English-speaking guide. Great Tour minibus. Your every wish is considered.
Treasures of Thailand 8 Days - Chiang Mai to South, Small Group Tour (English Only)
- 20+ highlight Chiang mai Fun trip and activity
My friend had used LJ biz years earlier for a Thailand trip and recommended them to me. We had a wonderful time with great food and lots of adventure. Everything was coordinated smoothly and the trip and itinerary was a great value. We were traveling with my 16 year old son. The highlight of the trip was the 2 day trek into the countryside to meet and stay with the Hill tribes. The people were fascinating and gracious, and the countryside was beautiful. This was a wonderful trip and a wonderful tour company.
- A 5 Day Tuk Tuk Adventure in beautiful Chiang Mai
Wow, what a fantastic day out yesterday. The scenery is beautiful and so nice to see some of the countryside and small villages. Makes a big change from bustling Chiang Mai city. I didn't drive a tuktuk myself as I don't have a driving license but this didn't deter from the day at all as I got to enjoy the views from my comfy seat in the back whilst my husband did all the driving. It was wonderful to be so close with elephants and even get in the water with them and help brush and clean them. The baby one is so playful and the big one is huge it is fascinating just to watch him. You can see that the elephants are well cared for which is important to know as you do have to be careful with that in Thailand. Lunch was good and the rafting was a nice relaxing finish to the day. Really well organised and the guys running it are really nice and funny so you are well looked after. Worth the money!
