5.00Our Guide Benja is owner operator of Chiang Rai Big Smile Travel Company. She is very knowledgeable and passionate about her local area. We are a group of four and the tour was us only. We thoroughly recommend this tour if your in Chiang Rai.

5.00Benja was early to pick me up, explained the plan for the day. Since I was the only one on the tour, I could customize. Benja explained (in good English) the costs and I decided to add the boat trip into Loas. She was very attentive and informative answering all my questions. She also kept me from overpaying for souvenirs. This was a full day, but I never felt rushed. The boat trip to Loas was interesting, but not at all what I expected. (All the more reason to go.) The temples were magical and the ancient temple was a marvel. I was able to book her for the next afternoon to see some other sites. She was that good!

5.00I would rate this trip as a 5 because of the wonderful English speaking guide Benja. She is knowledgeable and knows the area well. She took us to all the main sites most people want to see. Loved the White Temple, visiting the tribal people and seeing how they live. Visiting the Golden Triangle with the tasty meal overlooking the Mekong river and visiting the Opium museum. Loved the long tail boat ride up and down the river and a stopover in Laos without a VisA. Visiting different temples Blue temple and such all in an air conditioned car with a wonderful guide. My wife and I thank you for the day Benja!
