Chiang Mai · Culture & temples
Chiang Mai old city temples on foot
The trip, in short
The old city is a one-mile square inside a moat, and almost everything worth seeing in it can be walked in a morning. Wat Chedi Luang’s ruined 600-year-old stupa, Wat Phra Singh’s gilded Lanna viharn, Wat Chiang Man’s elephant chedi and the crumbling brick of Wat Umong Mahathera Chan.
Several of these temples run a monk chat: an hour set aside for visitors to sit with a novice and ask anything. Your guide will take you if you are interested, and skip it if you are not.

Our role, in fullCancellation & refunds
Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund to the card you paid with. Cancel later than that and the booking is non-refundable, because the vehicle, seat or greeter has already been committed.
- Refunds are issued within one business day and reach your card in 5–10 business days, depending on your bank.
- If we cancel — weather, a marine department closure, a mechanical failure — you choose a new date or a full refund, whenever we cancel.
- No-shows and cancellations inside the window are not refundable. We will always try to move you to another date first.
