Northern Thailand Tours

"We truly loved this tour ! Our guide May was amazing all the way. Very informative and such a great guy! Lunch was delicious and plentiful. Just be ready for a strenuous hike but the views are worth it ."

"It was a great experience: the places were amazing, and M, the guide was really kind. We could see a lot, but haven’t been too tired at the end of the day."

"We had a fantastic tour with Tu. We learnt so much and had a great time - despite the early start! We are not particularly spiritual people but the experience of being alone in the temple with just the monks chanting felt really quite mystical and special. Would highly recommend."

"this trip is really worth for money trip,tourist guide was a very nice guy. from feeding the elephants bathing with them going up to the mountain and forest,it was really great experience!"

"We had a lot of fun kayaking down the river! Thanks to the patience of our instructors, we were able to grasp the basics of kayaking halfway through. Guides were friendly and approachable. The main opportunity for improvement is lunch which was rather small."

"Absolutely amazing and life experience! Wonderful guides that take incredible care of elephants. Highly recommend!"

"We had a really great time on our tour with Tan and Tri. They explained many of the plants along the way and let us taste many of them, they were problably the best part of the trip and a lot of fun to talk to! Due to Covid our route was changed a bit, but it was very beautiful nevertheless (check out the sunsets/sunrises!). First and Last day were about 2-3hrs of walking, the second day was a more challenging trek of about 17km/6hrs walking, so better pack light! Accomodations are simple but clean, be aware that showers are cold water only and maybe bring earplugs. The weather is perfect in winter, during the summer or rainy season it might get somewhat more difficult. All in all this was probably the best tour I have ever been on, the combination of great guides, great planning, good food and beautiful sights was perfect!"

"Outstanding experience that was professionally prepared and provided. We enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you so much!"

"It was just AMAZING！ Our guide Loui was incredible, and super funny, she planned the whole trip just perfect to have enough time to visit, take pictures, enjoy and have some knowledge history of the places. We highly recommend this trip!"

"We really can't say enough good things about this trip. Our guide, Toi, was one of the most knowledgeable, well-spoken and kindest guides I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He provided a wealth of local knowledge and interesting contextual information as he thoughtfully guided us and looked after us all day. We were taken for a great photo opportunity at the start of the tour at Thailand's highest point, and then started the nature trail. It was tough going at times for our two small children but Toi was kind and supportive, taking breaks whenever we needed them and even providing a little bit of first aid and a quick snack :) He and the local guide helped us spot a range of wildlife, insects, interesting botanicals, and edible berries and flowers, which made the spectacular hike even more interesting and rewarding. After the trail, we went for a wonderful home-cooked lunch at the Loyalty Project sustainable farm and restaurant, a beautiful place, and then on to a tribal village where we enjoyed hand-ground coffee and learned about the more traditional way of life among the locals. We finished up at a roaring waterfall and then snoozed on the comfortable bus ride home. At all times we felt safe and all our needs were perfectly attended to. All in all an unforgettable trip, thank you Toi and Mr Li!"

"Guide was incredibly thoughtful and gave us a lot of great information about Chiangmai and Thailand. The temples inside the city are easy to do independently, but I really think the two offered on this tour should be seen with a guide. Definitely would recommend to any of my friends."

"Surpassed our expectations thanks to our excellent guide Cookie and our driver. Thoroughly recommend."

"A wonderful guide, with lots if extra explanation of local customs and ways of life while seeing the sights listed in the trip. A very enjoyable time."

"Great day great guide lots to learn and loads of fun at the waterfalls. Great value for money. Highly recommend."

"A fabulous experience sampling some of the yummiest dishes in the world. Great to be led into the heart of Chiang Mai street food scene with friendly guide."

"We enjoyed a wonderful day of bird watching with Joe. Everything was very well arranged. Nicely picked up at our hotel, we even got breakfast, very nice and expert guide, beautiful surroundings, we had a fantastic day with Joe and saw a lot of different species of birds, also some unique ones. This tour at GowithJo Travel is definitely recommended!"

"Ness was fantastic! She gave just the right amount of information and showed the highlights of Chiang Mai. She was very accommodating with special stop requests that we had as well. Would highly recommend."

"Pick up and drop off were on time. The driver managed the conditions up the mountain well. He had a good sense of humour. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and spoke English well. The first two sites were very interesting, not so touristy or busy even on the weekend. The tunnels were a bit too busy for meditation so we meditated at another place which was extremely quiet and peaceful, allowing us to take in the sounds of nature. I previously visited Doi Suthep earlier in the same day so I wasnt expecting much but I got to see a lot more compared to the morning. We saw monks chanting at around 6pm and the view from the viewpoint was much better."

"Excellent tour with a very good driver-guide Jackie Chan. The temples we saw were all amazing. The food at lunch was good! A great experience!"

"We all had a great time, our driver and guide arrived in a lovely Air conditioned minibus, we had a short drive across Chiang Mai to the river pickup point, the guides name was Nue, she was informing us of lots history as we traveled to the river. We walked down some steps to the river boat and fed some fish before we left for river cruise. During our hour long river cruise our guide was fantastic informing us on all the points of interest as we traveled up the river, we arrived at a farm type building along the river bank for lunch, we walked through a lovely herb and vegetable garden area, which each herb was explained to the group as we walked slowly to the restaurant area, we decided to sit outside as a fantastic lunch was served, after lunch we continued a walk around the farm to look at all the things going on before we got back on the boat for our journey back down the river, Our guide was informing us all the time and also had a long discussion with our teenage children along the cruise, which they found very interesting. Arriving back at our drop of point we were transported back to out apartment in the same air conditioned minibus. I can most definitely recommend this trip."
