Full description

This is a 11-hour experience from Chiang Mai, built around ตลาดสดบ้านกาด(อุ้ยคำ), Baan Huai Hoi Waterfall(Mae Puai Waterfall) and Bamboo Rafting Point. It is run by Chiangmai Smiley Tour Official, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Arashiyama, on Kyoto's western edge, is the bamboo grove, the Togetsukyo bridge over the Katsura river, the gardens of Tenryu-ji and the monkey park on the hill above. The bamboo path is about 500 metres and is photographed empty in every guidebook because those photographs are taken before 7:30; by mid-morning it is a procession. Rickshaw runs, the Sagano scenic railway along the gorge, and boat rides down the Hozu rapids all start here. Autumn colour peaks in the second half of November and cherry blossom around the first week of April.

The price covers Hotel pickup and drop-off, guide, Lunch, Bamboo rafting and Accident insurance. It does not cover Personal expenses, Drinking water and Snacks and drinks at the local market, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Mueang Chiang Mai District. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Chiangmai Smiley Tour Official before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.
