We booked the Doi Suthep tour and were taken to a couple of waterfalls, to an unspoilt Karen village, to the highest point in Thailand, a royal project, the King and Queen chedis… Nice day tour although the guide didn’t provide any piece of useful information and the ride back was way too fast (almost reckless).
We chose this tour company because the reviews on trip advisor seemed to be good unfortunately our experience did not reflect this. We took the White water rafting and ATV Quad biking day trip. To summarise, we never to to do the quad biking!Firstly our day started 9:00 with picking up the different groups of people in a mini van. Unfortunately a rich Chinese family decided they did not need to bother being ready on time. This made us wait 30 minutes and started the whole day on a bad note. This is obviously not in anyway the fault of the tour company but I thought it would be worth noting this to get an idea of how our day went.Once we had picked everyone up we started our journey into the jungle covered mountains. This took roughly an hour and was relatively comfortable. Once we arrived at a small shack we were told that some of us would be taking another vehicle to where the white would start and the Chinese family would be doing the elephant riding. Then a few minutes later we were told that we were ALL going in the back of a pick up truck. This was a normal sized pick up truck and we had to fit 16 people into it. We then travelled for another 20 minutes over EXTREMELY bumpy terrain, crammed into the back of a pick up trucked. We then arrived at another shack where we were told that the Chinese family were going to start their elephant riding and we were going to be taken to the white water rafting. At this point everyone other than the Chinese family got into the back of another truck. This one was at least bigger and had benches to sit properly. Once we arrived at the white water rafting start point we were told that we would have lunch next. We then waited roughly an hour here. The food actually arrived after about 15 minutes but obviously the other 45 minutes was spent just waiting for the Chinese family to finish their elephant ride. By the time we ate at 12:30 the food was almost cold. So the in 3 and a half hours all we had done was had lunch.Anyway, finally we started to get ready but while getting ready we noticed that the Chinese family were actually coming with us. Now this might not sound strange if not for the fact that in their family of 5 was a 3 or 4 year old child and a roughly 80 year old grandma. This either meant that the white water rafting was going to be a joke or it was going to be extremely dangerous. It was the later. They strapped and adult size life jacket onto the child. It could very very easily have come off. This was mind-blowingly stupid of both the tour company AND the parents. Everyone else on the tour could not believe what was happening.The white water rafting was actually really good. A nice amount of action though a beautiful forest. The guide was great and really funny. He really did his best to give us an excellent, exciting ride (an succeeded) It lasted about 1 hour and 30 minutes.After we finished and got dry it was about 16:30. I asked what was happening about our ATV quad biking and they said it was still happening and we would get about 30 minutes. This was when I started getting angry. In the description of this tour it states that you get 3 hours of quad biking! I explained this to her and she just said that the tour company always promises things they can’t provided. She then offered that we could do the 3 hours quad biking another if we paid another 1800 baht. This was a joke and I said I would be calling the tour company to get an explanation. Then the guide started saying I shouldn’t call the tour company because bla bla bla.In the end we decided to not do a 30 minute joke of a quad bike ride and instead just go back to chiang mai. We also found out on the ride home that if we had have done the quad biking the rest of the group would have had to have waited for us in the car.Basically what had clearly happened is that they didn’t want to spend the extra money to use a second mini van and therefore they had to plan the entire day around using one mini van for multiple different activities. This is unacceptable considering the high prices they charge. They ruined the tour for us and others to save a bit of money. Essentially we had a 9 hour day just to do a 1 and a half hour rafting activity. They also refused to refund us for the ATV quad biking.I suggest not doing any tours with this company. It only about the money with them.
Booked remotely via internet, some 7 or 8 months prior to our arrival, we were made to feel both individual and confident immediately by the various very rapid responses of Nong to our queries. We booked the four-day Charm of the North trip, and our experiences on this fully justified our expectations. Not only was the administration slick and professional, as it had been all along, we were met at precisely the right time at Chiang Mai airport, by “Bam” (Benito) – actually very early, as it was the only flight time available. Since we could not book into the hotel for some time, he took us to some wonderful places to visit, and then to lunch before taking us to the hotel and ensuring that we were satisfactorily booked in. The rest of the tour was as described, but considerably exceeded our expectations, largely because of the concern, knowledge and consideration displayed by Bam. We have had some good tour guides, but in everything he did, he ensured that we were comfortable, always knew what was happening, introduced us to the food (lunches were included and very good they were too), and made sure that everything worked successfully. Right at the end, he even took us to the Check in for the flight back. And all this while missing his New Year break too! Many thanks to Nong and Bam for a wonderful tour. Only one small criticism was the driver, with whom we travelled some considerable distances was at times somewhat scary.
