Expert Local Guide Easy Going

I spent three hours with Withikorn and he is the best tour guide; easy going, kind and full of local knowledge. He is a life long Chiang Mai resident with local expert knowledge of temples, food and customs. Withikorn will exceed your expectations. Highly recommend.

Great day trip with Naphat who took me out of town into the hills and mountains of Chiang Mai. Lovely company and wonderfully detailed information.

About local Wuthikorn
23 July 2025
A great start to our Chiang Mai Adventure!

We had only just arrived in Chiang Mai so it was simply wonderful to have a local guide show us round. Wuthikorn was very knowledgable and warm, and he really took the trouble to explain things in detail which gave us a great insight into the local Lanna culture. We learnt so much on our trip and we cannot thank Wuthikorn enough for such a fastastic start to our holiday!
