A fantastic tour and wonderful guide
Marley is a terrific guide – she explained about the sights we visited very clearly. Marley and Mr. A looked after me very well and made a long day thoroughly enjoyable.
The sights we visited were very impressive and varied – waterfalls, nature walk, the highest point in Thailand (I managed to balance a coin which brings good luck), the white Karen village – lunch was one of the best I’ve had on my holiday – The Gold and Silver pagodas and their gardens were beautiful- even the market where I bought fresh local strawberries which are delicious.
A wonderful day.

Lovely relaxed tour with some truly beautiful sights.
This is a beautiful trip. Lots to see and very tranquil up at the pagodas. I went in March so was a bit hazy due to burning season but there’s so much to see, I didn’t miss the Mountain View. The villagers were very friendly and was also lucky enough to see a green-tailed Sunbird on the nature walk. Mali was an excellent guide, gave lots of information and was friendly throughout. If you want a peaceful day out and want to see a quieter side of Thailand I’d highly recommend this tour.

I would recommend this tour to anyone who is looking for a great experience going to Doi Inthanon!
Our guide and driver were great. Highlights included the village tour, twin pagoda, highest peak marker, the views, fruit stand and being able to ask lots of questions!
Khob khun ka!

Great trip to Doi Inthanon
My wife and I booked Malee through Airbnb and loved our tour! She was very knowledgeable about the region and pagodas, and she knew so many people in the village we stopped in to see how the locals live. She gave us plenty of information about each stop we made, but still allowed us space to experience them by ourselves. Highly recommended booking!
