Too many shopping stops and a rush tour

Too many shopping stops , for attractions stop only few minutes and I updated the pickup address but the operator did NOT NOTICE the driver, we waited half an hour and communicated a lot, the operator had suggested me to change the date, finally they send another car for us…

Doi Inthanon Tour from Chiang Mai

We have seen all the sight-seeing places and are generally satisfied with this tour. At the top of Doi Inthanon, very foggy and windy - difficult to have a nice view on surroundings. Waterfalls are wonderful, the time stop was reasonable. The lunch provided by the tour guide was delicious. Not too much information about Thailand's history or culture itself from the guide, otherwise the cultural part is mostly visiting coffee/fruit shops and rice plantation.

Great Tour with Lots of Different Activities

Guide was very friendly and helpful. She advised me to buy a cheap raincoat before going to the highest peak in Thailand, and sure enough, it started raining hard. Tour was an interesting combination of short walks to waterfalls and monuments, to visits to local artisans and coffee growers to sample their wares. Lunch was in the middle of a rice field, which was cool. Would have enjoyed a little hike into the park.
