Overview

Visiting a one of the numerous Karen Long Neck villages in Thailand is one of the most exotic experiences on the planet. The mystery and beauty that sound the tradition of using brass rings for exaggerated jewelry is something better seen in person than in a book. We had ethical questions on if it these hill tribe villages would feel like human zoos, but thankfully we decided to visit anyway. It is a real life National Geographic Magazine to have to see to believe.

Too long of a day driving up and back from Chiang Mai - 13+ hours- too much time in the van with very short stops. Better to base in Chiang Rai to see these sights. Black House museum not that interesting- would have preferred skipping it and having more time on the Mekong River, instead of "out of the van, into the boat, back in the van" with no time to a actually look around. Long neck village visit felt a little contrived and sad.

The places are very interesting to visit. It’s a good compact tour if you’re interested in taking pictures only of very nice contemporary temples and interesting tribal people, and if you’re short on time, go for it. But: There is not much informative content by the tour guide and the lunch place is very bad quality cold food.

A very nice guide but the program is too much for a day.. we had to speed up at everything and we came back late around 11pm at Chiang Mai. A very long day. The places we visited are nice

The tour is very long and a small mistake can derailed the whole tour. One small mistake was that the tour guide picked up the wrong people from the hotel and only realized it after driving for 45 mins away from the city. So we dropped off the people at some gas station and drove into town during rush to pickup the right people. As a result, we arrived at white temple around 12:30, where half of the temple was closed for lunch break and rushed out in 30 mins to eat. The tour guide spoke barely any english and provided alittle or nothing as information for all locations however the driver was phenomenal. He did awesome trying to rectify her mistake and was a good driver. I would honestly recommend booking individual tour to white and blue temple only. Everything else is not worth seeing. The hot spring (extremely hot) was a gas station pit stop where hot spring was used to cook egg and vegetables. I wouldn't recommend this tour.

While overall it was a good day and we ended up essentially being able to see all we were intended to see, there was an unfortunate problem in the morning caused by two people who somehow wound up on the wrong tour and we had to make unusual arrangements to oust them but this caused us to lose valuable time. The tour operator person tried to do her best to overcome the situation but I’m not sure how that can happen with proper verification techniques in place. It would have been a little better if the English was a bit more proficient but she still did a respectable job overall.
