Review of Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai temple tour with White, Blue and Red Temples, hot springs, Karen village and Lalitta Cafe.
“PUMA was an excellent guide! The temples are modern. The white one is the most impressive. I have mixed feelings about the Longneck village. Lalitta Café did not dissapoint. Take into account Chiang Rai is 3 hrs away from Chiang Mai.”
Visit Chiang Rai’s White, Blue, and Red Temples, soak your feet at a hot spring, enjoy lunch, and return to Chiang Mai in one long day.
“I would not do this tour again. The way that it is set up doesn't make sense. You are rushed through the temples and then we spend 50 mins at a café and 20 minutes rest stop. Also, the driver drove extremely unsafe. He was going extremely fast and passing every car and bus on the way. I would not recommend this tour and company. There are many others out there. The tour guide was friendly. she was the best part but I wouldn't waste my money.”
Review of Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai’s 13-hour temple tour, with White, Blue, Black, and Red temples, hot springs, lunch, and practical tips.
“From the outset, the transport was completely unsuitable. The bus was extremely cramped, with no air conditioning. My partner is currently recovering from a broken leg and had absolutely no space or support during the journey. The entire trip was uncomfortably hot, overcrowded, and caused significant discomfort. The buffet lunch was equally unacceptable. The venue was overcrowded, food was either stone cold, not heated properly, or had completely run out. As a result, I was unable to eat anything at all. When raising this with the tour guide, they were unhelpful and showed little concern. We were also disappointed with what was described as a “snack,” which consisted only of…”
See Chiang Rai’s White and Blue Temples, Guan Yin statue, and Mae Khachan Hot Spring on an 11-hour tour from Chiang Mai.
“This was a long day however the temples are totally worth it. Our guide Goi was fantastic and very knowledgeable about the temples as welll as explaining about Buddhism in general. The pictures you see of the white temple do not do it justice. You have to see it for yourself. Highly recommend this tour.”
Enjoy a private two-hour Thai massage at Fah Lanna Spa in Chiang Mai’s Old City, with herbal tea, snacks, and a calm Northern Thai setting.
“Great experience! A wonderful time from start to finish - thank you for the wonderful treatment at your spa. I booked the 2 hour massage - very professional and excellent mix of relaxation and pressure and stretching. They really know what they are doing. Also loved the location, beautifully designed!”
Review of Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai’s White, Blue, and Black temples, hot springs, lunch, transport, costs, and practical booking advice.
“The food wasn't very good. For the hot springs, the activity takes place in a parking lot with two wells where locals cook their eggs. There are shops all around. It felt like being at a motorway service station. The temples are pretty, but the white one is an attraction with representations of good and evil. Marvels are classified as evil.”

Visit Chiang Rai’s White, Blue, and Red Temples from Chiang Mai, with hot spring stop, lunch, transfers, and an optional Karen village visit.
““Da-da” was a great tour guide and she was very friendly! These temples can be a bit packed but it’s worth seeing, if you have the option I recommend choosing Red temple over the Black temple/museum. Red temple has a very cool buddha on top of a lotus flower. Be aware this is a full day tour and takes about 2-3 hours to drive to Chiang Rai.”
