CHIANG MAI-CHIANG RAI: Join One Day White Temple + Bann Dam Museum+Blue Temple+Long Neck
1 / 9This mini cruises is one of the standout things to do in Chiang Rai, Thailand. Rated 4.0/5 by 5 travellers, it combines the highlights below into a single, easy-to-book experience from €139 per person. Visit the very far north including Mai Sai and the Golden Triangle and travel into Myanmar for the day.
This full day tour will have you collected from your hotel in Chiang Rai and driven to town of Mae Sai and the Thai-Burma trading border. Crossing the Sai River you'll now find yourself across the border in Tha Chilek witnessing local Burmese life.
A rickshaw will assist you to explore Tha Chilek and its Shan style temple. Then ride around the town through lanes and side streets ending at a local market, famous for products from Southern China, Burma and Laos.
Lunch will be at a local restaurant.
This fascinating day will continue onto the Golden Triangle area, where the borders of three countries meet. Take a long-tailed boat trip around the Golden Triangle to view the splendour where the mighty Mae Khong River joins the Ruak River to form the “triangle” where Laos, Burma, and Thailand converge.
Return to your hotel at around 4.00pm.
Chiang Rai is rewarding year-round, but spring and early autumn typically bring the most comfortable temperatures and thinner crowds than peak summer. Morning departures tend to be quieter and cooler; booking ahead is recommended in high season as popular mini cruises slots in Chiang Rai sell out.
