We toured the Thapae Gate on Sunday. My guide, View, gave us a friendly smile and explained various things about Chiang Mai's history and food. I went on a private tour alone as a woman, and it was really nice to have a female guide. We ate a lot of food. Foods like egg noodles, pig's feet rice bowl, sticky mango rice, traditional ice cream... We ate until we were full and had fun walking around. I think this will be the best memory in Chiang Mai. I highly recommend it to solo female travelers.

Amazing experience!!! Accompanying the elephants without forcing them to do anything that people prefer. If you are looking to ride the elephants, this is not the place.

The guide net is passionate and friendly. The explanation is professional and detailed. He tries to tell many stories. The Michelin restaurant didn't really appeal to my taste, but it was a good experience. I think going around the Waroot Market will be helpful for the trip.

We recently rented traditional Thai clothing from this shop and had an amazing experience! When we arrive there, the staff were incredibly accommodating. They not only provided a wide range of beautiful outfits but also offered FULL accessories to complete the look! Highly recommended!"
