Private Chiang Mai Temple Tour with Doi Suthep and Wat Umong

A private day of temples around Chiang Mai suits travellers who want to see the main sights without sharing a minivan or a schedule. The tour runs 9 hours and visits four temples: Doi Suthep, Wat Umong, Wat Suan Dok and Wat Phra That Doi Kham. A professional guide and an air-conditioned minivan stay with your party all day, and the group is private, up to 15 people.

What the day looks like

Each temple gets about an hour, in this order:

• Wat Phra That Doi Suthep. The famous temple in Chiang Mai, and the best-known stop of the day.
• Wat Umong. The tunnel temple, set in forest.
• Wat Suan Dok. Another of Chiang Mai’s temples, visited between the tunnel temple and the mountain.
• Wat Phra That Doi Kham. The temple on the mountain, known as the Temple of the Golden Mountain.

The minivan carries you between the sights, and lunch is included. Admission is marked as included at all four temples.

Good to know

Included: private tour with a professional guide, air-conditioned minivan transport between the sights, bottled water, lunch, and hotel or port pickup and drop-off.

Temples expect covered shoulders and knees, and a light scarf or sarong helps if your clothes fall short.

The tour is rated easy. Hotel or port pickup is included, so there is no meeting point to find.
