Tour Overview

Step off the beaten path and into the embrace of Northern Thailand’s natural splendor. Our 2 Day Tour Salawin River begins in the cultural hub of Chiang Mai and ventures deep into Mae Hong Son province—a land of misty mountains, sacred temples, and unspoiled wilderness. This immersive journey blends scenic exploration, cultural reverence, and peaceful riverside moments.

Day 1 : Opens with a journey to the sky—ascending Doi Inthanon, Thailand’s highest peak. There, you’ll visit the King and Queen Pagodas, then wander beneath the spray of Wachiratarn Waterfall, surrounded by lush forest. After a local lunch, continue to Ob Luang National Park, a site of prehistoric wonder and dramatic canyons. Here, you’ll enjoy a 1-hour nature trail walk through forest paths and ancient rock formations—a landscape once home to early humans. Your day ends in the peaceful town of Mae Sariang, with a delicious dinner and a relaxing night at the River House Resort beside the river.

Day 2 : Begins with a serene drive to the quiet village of Ban Mae Sam Leab, nestled near the Burmese border. Here, you’ll board a traditional long-tail boat for a two-hour cruise along the Salawin River—a lifeline for hill tribes and riverside communities. You’ll witness untouched forested mountains, remote Karen settlements, and the mystical confluence at Sop Moie District, where the Moei and Salawin rivers meet. After lunch, the journey continues with a cultural visit to Phrathat Jom Mon Temple, perched above the valley with spectacular views of the Salawin basin. This peaceful hilltop sanctuary offers a moment for reflection before the comfortable return drive to Chiang Mai, arriving by early evening.
