Nice, knowledgeable & very accommodating.
"We had 2 full day tours with Minty during our stay in Chiang Mai and we were very pleased. She was prompt, knowledgeable, communicated well, answered all of our questions, was flexible when we requested a change and was very kind. The transportation was comfortable and clean as well. "

Great tour
"Kit was wonderful. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. Learned lots about Buddhism. Seeing the sunrise and taking part of the food offering was very special. Kit had everything timed perfectly. It was wonderful to see the temple at such a quiet time was magical. The second temple was very unique and cool on its own. Kit was great and allowed us to walk the Monk trail down which was beautiful. Would recommend!!"

Unbelievably Unqiue Experience
"Kit was a fantastic tour guide, and what made the trip special was his combination of first-hand experiences as a monk and knowledge of the material being presented. We were initially concerned about the early wake up call with two small kids, but Kit’s storytelling kept them interested throughout the morning. Cannot recommend highly enough!!"

Great Day and a Must Do
"My husband and I were extremely pleased with how professional, accommodating, and knowledgeable Minty was. We flew into Chiang Mai only for this day tour and she picked us up and dropped us off at the airport. She came prepared with snacks and water for the drive to Chiang Rai and provided us with a lot of information about the locals, history, and even took us to the best Curry Noodle place I’ve ever been to. She was great company and assisted us with photos, translating when we needed assistance, and gave us very useful guidance before entering the temples. We absolutely loved our day with Minty and we highly recommend this tour."

Such a unique Chiang Mai experience!
"Incredible countryside Chiang Mai experience with a knowledgeable & personable host. Highly recommend this tour if you want to be pushed outside of our comfort zone (the bike ride was a workout)! While taking in beautiful views of the country side, we visited local crafters, rice paddies, enjoyed delicious local foods and even a distillery. There are loads on the itinerary, and Aei will just keep you surprised. Time will fly! We felt safe with Aei, it was like hanging with a pal. 😊 Happy that we choose this experience! "

Amazing Customized Tour (Gluten-Free)
"Aei was an incredible tour guide, who put together a kid friendly and gluten-free evening to accommodate our family. She was knowledgeable on gluten-free requirements and her relationships with the vendors allowed her to ask questions and relay information to make sure we felt good about what we were eating. Allergies aside, we had a great time and she showed us so much that we had to tell her we could t eat anymore! She’s great with kids too! Highly, highly recommend. We only wish we had done this earlier during our stay. "

The bedt guide in Chiang Mai!
"Aei is a fantastic guide! We were with her for 3 different tours over 2 days, and they were all great. She has a great personality and is so kind and generous both with her guests and everyone we encountered on our tours. We’ve been on a 4 week journey in both Japan and Thailand, and can say that Aei has been the best guide we’ve had! We really enjoyed the Chiang Mai bike tour - we were worried it would be too hot, but it was actually more comfortable than doing a walking tour and we saw so much more. We would highly recommend Aei for all of your Chiang Mai adventures! "

A fabulous cycle tour with Aie
"Really amazing tour we honestly felt we had experienced country life with Aie we were in her home village and saw some amazing things such as local Rhai whisky production, crab sauce preparation from the tiny crabs that are found in the rice paddies, the most beautiful duck farm owner , wood carving , bee hives, amazing lunch on the water it was endless . Just book , great bikes too and it’s very flat so really easy even in the heat of Chiang Mai district ! 😍"

Book Naphat for a very special experience
"I chose this tour and Naphat as our guide as we wanted to have an experience which helped us better understand Buddhism as well as seeing all the charming side of this great city. Naphat felt like a friend by the end of the tour and we would like to come back again one day and share more stories about our spiritual journey, Naphat is quite special and if you want to hear more about the spiritual aspect then she is indeed the guide for you. The old town is just brilliant and Naphat will point out many places to go to in the day and evening 😍"

What a fabulous food tour with Tanya! 🥰
"We use With Locals a lot, it’s a totally different and very special experience tailored to what you enjoy. Tanya was such a great host , I would highly recommend her not only for guiding us through many wonderful food tastings but also for fabulous conversation, we learned a lot about local Thai culture . This is a great introduction to Thai closing especially Lanna Northern Thai and we loved absolutely everything we sampled , very full by the end of the tour. Just book you will love it, trust me, we are foodies and there’s nothing better than a tour like this to learn about local cuisine 😍"

The best part? These tours are all about you. No herding in big groups or rushing through places you're not interested in. With private tours, you're the boss. Whether it's snapping pics at iconic landmarks, diving into history, or checking out the art scene, the tour is tuned to your vibes at your tempo.
But it doesn't stop at city limits. Day trips let you escape the urban jungle and explore nearby wonders.
