Full description

This version of the day trip north keeps the group small and adds a slower, greener stop. As well as the White Temple and the Blue Temple in Chiang Rai and a break at the hot springs on the way, you spend time at Lalitta Café, a garden café of rock pools, little waterfalls and wooden walkways that has become one of the most photographed stops in northern Thailand.

With fewer people in the vehicle, the stops run more smoothly and your guide has time to answer questions about the temples’ symbolism and the artists who created them.
