Private transfers and tours between Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai

We actually used the tour company three times. Our first driver was Mr. Big who drove us from Chaing Mai to Chiang Rai; the second driver was with Mr. Chon who drove us to the Golden Triangle from Chiang Mai and back and lastly, with Mr. Udom from Chiang Rai back to Chiang Mai. The Transfers between Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai and back to Chiang Mai were unique as you can select a few sites to visit that are along the route. So, instead of one long, boring transfer, it is like a tour with multiple stops which helps break up the monotony of the journey. If you have 2-3 people to share the costs, it is definitely worth the extra money. All drivers we had were very nice and polite and drove safely. Although their English were limited, we were able to communicate without much difficulty. Highly recommended.

Operator response

Thank you so much for choosing our service not just once, but three times during your trip. 😊 It was truly our pleasure to have you travel with Mr. Big, Mr. Chon, and Mr. Udom. We're delighted that you enjoyed our transfer-with-sightseeing concept and that it made the journey between Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai more enjoyable. Thank you for your kind words about our drivers' safe driving and friendly service. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Northern Thailand again in the future. 🚗💙
