We booked James for an afternoon to shoot photos of our family (daughter, mum, dad, and grandma) during our stay at the very scenic Four Seasons resort Chiang Mai. The experience was great from start to finish and we ended up with some really amazing photos. It was one of those experiences where you go ‘wow, a professional really does make a difference’. Best of all, the process was enjoyable and relaxed the whole time. Highly recommended!

The guide K. Nicky was very knowledgable. She and our driver K. Boo helped us get vegetarian Thai food which tasted amazing. K.Nicky explained to us the history of long neck tribe and was very non intrusive. She gave us time for ourselves. The waterfall was amazing and we had quite time to ourselves there.

The morning started punctually with a pick up from our hotel to Buzzy Bee Bikes. Weather was perfect, cool and cloudy. Grabbed our bikes and gears and off we went through villages, paddy fields, and we got to see rice barns, temples, countless local fruit trees, and even a dam, an archaeological temple site, and several crematoriums too! The highlight was a ceremonial procession where a young boy was being 'transported' from his home to the monastery to be a monk! Cool! Overall a great experience. The guide was very personalised, and we felt we were in good hands. At the end of the tour, we were treated to lunch personally cooked by their home chef, it was fried chicken served with fragrant rice. Yumz!

Khun Pong took us on an amazing bike tour of the Chiang Mai countryside. It was so relaxing yet we got our exercise. We stopped at a beautiful temple and then this restaurant that was situated in the midst of a rice paddy. We did not eat there as it was early in the morning but we were allowed to walk around the beautiful grounds. Along our way we stopped at a Sunflower field and took some great photos. Khun Pong allowed us to stop whenever we wanted if we saw something we wanted to take a photo of. After our ride we stopped at his brother's restaurant and had a delicious meal that was included in our price. Great day! Great company! Bikes were in top shape!

The Chiang Mai Grand Canyon is the place where many locals and tourists go to have fun in the water, as there is a large pool of water for swimming, as well as a 14 metre high cliff where people can jump off into the water. There is a designated spot for the cliff jumping and it is supervised. The Aqua Park is located about 300 metres away from the Grand Canyon and consists of large plastic obstacle course filled with air that sits on top of the water. If you fall, you will bounce or better yet, fall into the water! There are also smaller obstacles and water slides for kids who will wear themselves out in no time! The Aqua Park is perfectly safe and all visitors are are required to wear a life jacket at all times, regardless of swimming ability. The area is also patrolled at all times by trained life guards. There are change rooms with showers and lockers where you can store your bags and valuables. There is also a cafe on site which serve food and drinks.

We used I Asia Thailand (we used them last year) and we rented a van with guide Woody and driver. We requested Woody after good comments and feedback. We did a 8 hour day trip and they were punctual, dressed well, excellent English and very informative. We started from Patong and made our way north before stopping for lunch and then east road back to the south to the many view points. The van was clean with great aircon and wifi!!!. We also had our own hand sanitiser and also wipes throughout the day. I would suggest and recommend I Asia Thailand to any family and friends. We would happily use their services again!

This private tour was excellent! We got a thorough history of the locality. The walking was pleasant and not difficult. There were a couple tricky spots and stairs that may be difficult for some travelers, but there are railings and our guide was ready to assist at any moment. Would definitely recommend. It was worth the extra for a private tour because we could choose how much time we spent at each location without worry. (We actually went in January 2020 but I forgot to leave a review)

It is free for Thai people. Why should foreigners pay 200 baht to enter a shopping mall. It is not a real floating market but made up for tourists.
