Frequently asked questions

I am interested in your tours and treks, and would like to know the price. Where can I find the price?
If you would like to know the price of tours or a customized itinerary, then please just E mail us.

What is your minimum group size for a tour or trek?
Our minimum group size is normally four people. However it is possible to organise a half day or one day tour for one person.

Are your guides well qualified?
All our guides are licensed by the Tourist Authority of Thailand. As well as that, they are all very experienced. Some of them have 10-20 years experience guiding around Thailand. Some of them have very high educational qualifications. All of our guides have to match up to the standards we expect, before we let them guide one of our tours.

We are traveling with children; is Northern Thailand a suitable summary="" place for a holiday?
Many people travel to Northern Thailand with children. Accommodation and food are very good. There are many department stores and pharmacies, where you can find anything you might need. We have designed many tour programmes for people traveling with children, so we have a good idea of what kind of programme you might require.

We are already in Thailand and would like to book one of your tours/treks. Is this too short a notice to book?
We have organised many tours at short notice. Contact us with your details and we will try and confirm the trip that you require. Please, if it's really short notice, then telephone us, that will be the quickest and most efficient way to work everything out and confirm if its possible. Our telephone number is on almost every page of our website. Calling from Thailand = 053 200105, 01 8819839

We need to book accommodation in Northern Thailand, what do you recommend?
We do business with a wide range of hotels. Just tell us where you would like to stay and which standard you require.

Where is your company based?
We are based in Chiang Mai. Therefore we're in the best position to know all the up to date information on Northern Thailand and to research all our trips.

Have you been to all the places that you include in your itineraries?
We've been to all the places in our itineraries and along the routes they follow. We personally research every trip and destination. We take all the photos and gather all the information ourselves.

Is it possible to start our tour, somewhere other than Chiang Mai?
Yes, you can book a tour with us that starts in another town/city. This kind of tour will be a customized itinerary and when the details are finalised we will make it clear where the starting point is; that is where your guide and driver will pick you up. Common destinations to start a tour, other than Chiang Mai, are: Bangkok, Phitsanuloke, Sukothai, Chiang Rai and Mae Hong Son.

We would like to do a trek, but we are not very fit. Is it still possible?
We have some One Day Treks that would be suitable for you. You will still get to see the hilltribes, ride on elephants and experience bamboo rafting. But you don't have to walk much at all, just an hour if that's all you require (or you can walk more).

We would like to do the Thai Cookery Course, but we're vegetarian. Is this a problem?
Many people doing the courses are vegetarian. Plenty of vegetarian substitutes are offered; you will see that Thai food can easily be adapted to vegetarian tastes.

We are coming to Thailand as a large group; is it still possible to organise an itinerary for us?
Yes we can also organise tours and treks for large groups. Just let us know how many people in your group and the type of itinerary you would like.

We would like to do one of your tours or treks but we are vegetarian. What do we eat?
This will be not a problem at all as long as we know about your preferences before. Thailand does have enough to offer for vegetarians.
