Chiang Mai
I hold hill tribe tours to a higher bar, and this list reflects it. The ones here visit Karen, Hmong and Akha communities in small groups, with guides from the villages and money that stays in them. You arrive as a guest, not an audience.
Traverse the natural wonders and cultural tapestry of Chiang Mai, from an ethical elephant sanctuary to a captivating Long Neck Village and the mesmerizing Buatong Sticky Waterfall.
“The tour guide Fluke was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and organised the trip smoothly. It was so much fun and I can highly recommend the trip!”
