North Thailand Highlights, Small Group Tour (English Only)

Chiang Rai → Chiang Mai 5 days Up to 8

About this trip

Five days through northern Thailand, starting in Chiang Rai and finishing in Chiang Mai, with a focus on the region's temples, hill tribe villages, and food.

You move through varied landscapes along the way, with time built in to slow down and take in local life rather than just tick off sights.

It runs as a small group of up to 8, which keeps things personal and makes the villages and temple visits feel less like a queue.

What you'll do

  • Visit some of northern Thailand's most significant temples
  • Explore hill tribe villages in the countryside around Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai
  • Travel through the region's mountain and rural landscapes
  • Try local northern Thai food along the route
  • Small group of up to 8 travellers
Good to know
  • Easy pace, suited to travellers who want culture and scenery without heavy physical demands
  • Partially guided, so some parts of the trip you'll do independently
  • Works well for families as well as small groups of friends
