Amazing experience
"Wow! From the second you are picked up Kit is an amazing host. He tells all about his history and the history of his grandfather. You’ll get to experience everything from the lighting of the candle and the flower offering. Kit tells you all what it means. At the temple it is so quiet and wonderful. The sunrise is amazing. And how wonderful to experience the chanting of the monks. And we got to offer them food. The next temple you visit is like a fairy tale. We had an amazing day and Kit is definitely an amazing guide. Tells you everything and you can ask him anything. Would really recommend this tour!!!"

Review about Naphat
"The Highlights and Hidden Gems tour with Naphat was a very special experience and great way to kickoff my visit to Chiang Mai. After the hidden market she took me to several temples, including a very special smaller one that was not overrun with tourists. Naphat did a great job of explaining the history of each temple and was also happy to answer many of my questions about Buddhism and her experience as a nun. We had a number of deep and meaningful moments during the tour and it left me feeling more like I was being show around the city by an old friend instead of a tour guide. The first tour was great and I also booked a second evening tour with Naphat which was also amazing. She’s a great guide and I highly recommend booking her for your tour. "

Magical Evening with a Magical Person
"I had a wonderful time with Naphat on the Magical Evening Tour. It was a great way to experience the city at after dark and she did a great job of explaining the sights and providing some very meaningful perspective on Thai society and culture. Highly recommended! "

Enlightening & Excellent Experience
"My mom and I went on the Chiang Rai day tour with Naphat. She was very knowledgeable and outgoing, sharing the history, architectural significance, and culture of our sites as well as her daily local life and her experience as a Buddhist nun. Naphat also gave us a background in Buddhist teachings and philosophy and spirituality, and I learned a lot! Even though the tour originally included just the White Temple and Blue Temple, Naphat was flexible and let us squeeze in the Black House, Guan Yin Statue, and the Clock Tower (while driving past the Night bazaar), albeit for an extra fee. Our day was jam-packed, but we were able to do everything before sunset! On the way back to Chiang Mai, Naphat let the driver stop at a backpack store so I could buy a new bag, and then dropped us off at our next stop, the Chiang Mai Night Bazaar. Overall, this was a fantastic day and great learning experience, and the tour was flexible enough to fit our needs. I highly recommend booking Naphat for your Thailand tours, especially if you want to learn about Buddhism and spirituality!"

Food Tour in Chiang Mai with Tanya
"Tanya took us on a food tour in Chiang Mai. She took us to an outdoor restaurant where we picked out a few dishes. She then took us to a street market to walk thru and explained local cuisine to us and we picked out more local foods. She was an excellent guide and also explained Thai culture to us"

Incredible Old City Immersion!
"Our Old City tour in Chiang Mai with Naphat was truly unforgettable. She was an incredible guide, blending her deep knowledge with a warm, personable approach that made us feel like we were exploring the city with a local friend. Naphat not only took us to the most notable temples in town but also guided us through the vibrant community, sharing insights into daily life and local culture. The experience felt immersive and authentic, with highlights including learning about Buddhist religion and spirituality in a meaningful way and taking a fun tuk-tuk ride to a bustling local market. We can’t recommend this tour with Naphat enough—it’s the perfect way to see the best of Chiang Mai and connect with its rich history and culture!"

Incredible sunrise temple tour
"We had an incredible sunrise temple tour in Chiang Mai with Kit as our guide. From start to finish, Kit was exceptionally knowledgeable, prepared, and friendly, making the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. Starting early allowed us to explore the highlights of Chiang Mai before the crowds arrived, giving us a peaceful and serene atmosphere at each temple. One of the most memorable moments was the monk offering, which felt deeply personal and spiritual. Kit also went above and beyond to customize the tour to our interests, ensuring we had a unique and meaningful experience. We highly recommend this tour with Kit—it was a perfect blend of culture, history, and tranquility, all led by a fantastic guide. A must-do in Chiang Mai!"

Great experience
"We would love to thank Kit again for the great experience we had during sunrise at Doi Suthep. The information he shared with us were very interesting and gave us an impression of his way of live before as a monk. Thanks again for the great tips on places to go to as well. Lovely greetings, Sacha "
