Embark on an unforgettable day trip from Chiang Mai to the captivating city of Chiang Rai, where you will explore the stunning White Temple and Blue Temple, as well as unwind at the serene Mae Kachan Hot Springs. Additionally, delve into the rich traditions of the Hill Tribe Long Neck village.

Tour Details

Beginning our journey at 2-6 Rachadamnoen Rd, we’ll commence our exhilarating adventure to Chiang Rai, surrounded by the breathtaking natural beauty of Thailand!

After enjoying a smooth 3-hour drive, we’ll kick off our day with a visit to the soothing Mae Kachan hot springs. Rejuvenate in the warm mineral-rich waters, reputed for their healing properties. Don't forget to pack your swimsuit!

Our next destination is the Long Neck Hill Tribe Village, renowned for its distinctive tradition of adorning women with brass rings to extend their necks, a mark of beauty. Here, we’ll uncover the story and cultural importance of this practice. Should you wish to opt out of this visit, a nearby café provides a cozy atmosphere for a brief respite.

As our journey continues, we'll marvel at the breathtaking White Temple, characterized by its luminescent white structure. Accompanied by our guide, we’ll discover the temple's intricate design, particularly the elaborate glass details symbolizing Buddha's wisdom.

Subsequently, we will head to the Blue Temple, famous for its vibrant blue exterior and ornate golden highlights. This temple offers a striking visual experience, adorned with dramatic dragon sculptures and a myriad of colorful decorations.

Our final stop will be at the Hauyplakang Temple, known for its impressive 9-tiered pagoda. Each level is graced by a series of Buddha statues, and as we climb, we will also encounter the figure of Guan Yin, the Goddess of Mercy. At the peak, we’ll be rewarded with sweeping views of Thailand's lush, green valleys.

Once we complete our journey, we’ll return to our starting point, wrapping up an enriching experience spanning approximately 11 to 12 hours.
