Full description

This is a 3-day experience in Chiang Mai. It is run by Mae chaem Tour and Service, 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 in Chiang Mai, Round-trip transportation from Chiang Mai, 4WD local vehicle, local guide and Day 1. It does not cover Personal expenses, Alcoholic beverages, Travel insurance and Tips for guide and driver, 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. Mae chaem Tour and Service 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 Mae chaem Tour and Service before treating your booking as final.

Aon, thank you so much for such a special experience. What I’ll remember most is how welcome, safe and comfortable you made me feel from the beginning. You gave me the chance to experience the village in a way that felt genuine and respectful, not just like a tourist passing through. Sharing food, laughing with the children, meeting people in the community and seeing the happiness and generosity there meant a lot to me. Even when we didn’t share the same language, there was such a strong feeling of connection, warmth and fun. You made everything feel easy, safe and natural, and I’m really grat
