Overview

This full-day bus trip lasts about 13 to 14 hours and includes round-trip hotel pickup from Chiang Mai city. The tour visits several key sites in Chiang Rai Province, starting with a short break at Mae Khachan Hot Spring. You then spend about an hour exploring Wat Rong Khun, also known as the White Temple, noted for its modern architecture. Next, the trip continues to Wat Phra That Chedi Luang, a temple built in the traditional Chiang Saen style, where you stop for around 20 minutes. After that, you go to the Golden Triangle area, where you have 15 to 20 minutes at a viewpoint overlooking the Mekong River, followed by a 30-minute long-tail boat ride along the river. The tour also includes a 30-minute visit to the House of Opium museum, which explains the history of the opium trade in the Golden Triangle region. A Thai set lunch is provided during the day. Transport during the trip is in an air-conditioned minivan, and the package includes entrance fees to Wat Rong Khun and the House of Opium, bottled water, travel accident insurance, and a professional English-speaking guide.
