Sunrise on Doi Suthep, then Wat Pha Lat in the jungle and Wat Umong’s tunnels. Small-group, guided, and GSTC-focused.
“We were lucky enough to have Happy as our guide. I did the sunrise tour about two weeks ago, and luckily had a very small group (3 people total). Happy showed us around and knew just about every person we encountered. She always had a big smile and laugh. The tour itself was moving, being some of the first people to the temple for sunrise was unforgettable. One of my favorite activities by far.”

Chiang Mai Doi Suthep and Wat Pha Lat tour with open-air pickup, monk trail hike, dragon staircase, sunrise option, and English guide.
“The red taxi that took us up the hill was hot and the exhaust extremely irritating despite the fan & open windows. A van with AC should be provided not the cheap city taxis. On a positive note the temples were very impressive and the monks trail down the mountain challenging in sandals but very good.”

“Our little group had the best day under the care of our lovely guide Suryia and our driver who I unfortunately forgot the name.. Even though there were only 3 of us, Suryia made sure to let us have all the time in the world with the elephants at the sanctuary. We had the best VIP time with them, ideal for us to take a million photos and videos ;) He was also very informative when taking us to the Doi Suthep temple. All in all, it was an excellent day trip! Will totally recommend it 10/10”

Twilight tour from Chiang Mai town to Wat Umong tunnels and Doi Suthep’s golden temple, with pickup and skip-the-line guidance.
“Overall the basics for the tour were good BUT we arrived and there were swarms of moths like thousands. I wish we were notified ahead of time so we could have brought mask or perhaps keep my mother behind. This really made the tour not good for our group this evening. Sad because it’s our last evening & really wanted to spend time enjoying the temple & overlooking the city & taking professional photos. But the moths were in our eyes and it was awful. Apparently, this happens after a daytime rainstorm (tour was in the evening) so be weary of that. The guide was such a sweetheart & the…”
