Full description
This is a 11-hour experience from Chiang Mai, built around Doi Inthanon Summit, King & Queen Pagoda and Thai Hmong Community Market. 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.
Japan's outdoors is organised: trails are marked, mountain huts are booked, and the walking routes with history, the Nakasendo post road between Magome and Tsumago and the Kumano Kodo pilgrimage in Wakayama, are done in comfortable day stages with luggage forwarded. Cycling tours use the flat river paths and back streets that cars avoid. The summer heat from July to September makes early starts essential in the cities and lowlands, while the mountains are cool. Winter turns Hokkaido and Nagano into ski country from December to March, with the powder that Niseko and Hakuba are known for.
The price covers Hotel pickup and drop-off, Air-conditioned transportation, tour guide, Thai set lunch and Doi Inthanon National Park entrance fee. It does not cover Personal expenses, 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.
Hotel pickup in Chiang Mai. Chiangmai Smiley Tour Official confirms your pickup time and the exact spot once the booking is in. 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.

Traveler Reviews
The trip was incredible and our guide Moo was one of the best guides we had in Chiang Mai, she explained everything perfectly and gave us the right amount of time to take pictures and rest! The places were beautiful too
This trip was absolutely wonderful! Chiang Mai is such a beautiful and culturally rich province. The lush greenery, stunning waterfalls, and local wildlife were a delight to my senses. The hike, led by a local guide, was the highlight of the day and made the experience even more special. Our tour guide, Mo, was incredibly knowledgeable and made sure everyone in the group was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of throughout the trip. Our driver was also excellen, professional, courteous, and made us feel safe throughout the journey. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to experie
The experience was fantastic! The places we visited were absolutely stunning, and it was fascinating to explore the wilder, more authentic side of Thailand. Goi, the guide, was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and funny, making the whole trip even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!
This was a great day! Goi, our guide was perfectly organized and make sure knew what was coming next and how much time we had. She had so much information and was able to answer all of our curious questions. We got very lucky that the rain only came at the end for the twin pagodas, and the summit , which made for a memorable and windy moment :)) if you’re going in the rainy season definitely bring rain gear, anything can happen even if the day starts out warm and cloudy ! Highly recommend this tour, and especially with Goi!
Es una actividad muy completa. Hemos tenido a Tommy como guía quien nos ha ido explicando y mostrando los distintos puntos importantes. Recomiendo mucho la actividad!!
Nos encantó :) El guía Tommy fue encantador y muuuuy atento. Repetiríamos 100%
la nostra esperienza è stata meravigliosa, il trekking ti permette di entrare in contatto con la natura thailandese in profondità, soprattutto durante la stagione monsonica. la nostra guida Koi è stata fantastica, 5 stelle solo per lei, meravigliosa: ci ha spiegato moltissime cose, lasciandoci il nostro tempo per affrontare il trekking ma anche fotografare e chiedere spiegazioni. Decisamente un'escursione da fare!
