Day 1: The journey begins with a morning hotel pickup in Chiang Mai. Our first destination is the legendary Doi Inthanon National Park, where you’ll stand atop Thailand’s highest peak and breathe in cool, crisp mountain air. Wander among beautifully landscaped flower gardens at the King and Queen Pagodas, with sweeping views of forested valleys below. Next, refresh yourself at the roaring Wachiratarn Waterfall, a perfect backdrop for nature photography. Enjoy a satisfying local lunch before heading deeper into the mountains toward Mae Hong Son. There, explore the serene lakeside temples of Wat Jong Kham and Wat Jong Klang, known for their reflective beauty and Shan-style architecture. After dinner, unwind at the comfortable Fern Resort (3-Star Hotel) in Mae Hong Son town.

Day 2: Start your day with stunning panoramic views from Wat Phra That Doi Kong Mu, overlooking Mae Hong Son town shrouded in morning mist. The adventure continues to Ban Huay Sua Tao Long Neck Karen Village, where you’ll meet members of this unique ethnic group and learn about their traditional lifestyle. Around lunchtime, reach Ban Jabo, a Black Lahu village known for its cliffside noodle restaurants with sweeping valley views. Enjoy a delicious local meal while soaking in the scenery. Afterward, embark on an exciting bamboo rafting journey into Tham Lod Cave, exploring massive limestone chambers decorated with ancient stalactites and prehistoric wall paintings. As the day winds down, we’ll visit Wat Phra That Mae Yen for a magical sunset over Pai Valley. For travelers unable to climb or walk long distances, an alternative sunset experience will be arranged at Two Huts Pai, a more easily accessible viewpoint with equally breathtaking views. After sunset, enjoy dinner and the vibrant local atmosphere at Pai Walking Street, then retire for the night at Yoma Hotel (4-Star).

Day 3: Begin your morning with a refreshing swim at Mo Paeng Waterfall, a local favorite for cooling off and enjoying natural rock pools. Continue your cultural adventure at Santichon Village, home to the Chinese Yunnan community. Wander through traditional Yunnan-style houses, explore local shops, and enjoy a flavorful Yunnan lunch. Afterward, take time to relax at Coffee in Love, a popular hillside café offering sweeping views over Pai’s countryside (food and beverages are not included, and guests may choose any other café along the route before reaching Pai Canyon). After your coffee break, explore Pai Canyon with a short scenic walk along narrow ridges offering stunning photo opportunities. Before we head back to Chiang Mai, visit the historic Tha Pai Memorial Bridge, a World War II relic. Expect to arrive back in Chiang Mai around 7 PM.
