DAY 1: Chiang Mai to Mae Chaem – Peaks and Waterfalls

Start your adventure with a morning pickup from your Chiang Mai hotel. The first leg of the journey takes you on winding mountain roads toward Doi Inthanon National Park, known as “The Roof of Thailand.”

Feel the cool air at 2,565 meters above sea level as you reach the summit. Along the way, stop at the breathtaking Wachiratarn Waterfall, where white water crashes over mossy rocks—a great spot for photos and a breath of fresh mountain air.

Visit the beautiful King and Queen Pagodas, offering panoramic views over forested hills and terraced farmland. After lunch at a local Thai restaurant, continue to Mae Chaem, a sleepy district known for its relaxed village vibe and close ties to nature. Check into a cozy resort surrounded by rice paddies and rolling hills, and enjoy a traditional dinner. Stay overnight at Mae Chaem (Navasoung Resort or Similar)

DAY 2: Mae Chaem to Mae Hong Son – Villages and Rice Terraces

After breakfast, dive into local life with a visit to Mae Chaem’s Handicraft Village, where you’ll see traditional weaving techniques passed down for generations. Then, explore Wat Phuttha Eoen, an important temple that stands as a cultural landmark in the district.

The day’s highlight comes next: a thrilling 4WD drive up narrow, scenic paths to reach the famous Ban Pa Bong Piang rice terraces. Depending on the season, these lush green or golden fields ripple down the hills like nature’s own staircase—a photographer’s paradise.

After lunch, hit the road again towards Mae Hong Son, a charming border town surrounded by mountains and lakes. Stroll along the picturesque Chong Kham Lake, framed by flowering trees and shimmering temple reflections. Visit Wat Chong Kham and Wat Chong Klang, known for its intricate wooden carvings and stunning Burmese-style architecture. Stay overnight at Mae Hong Son (Fern Resort or Similar)

DAY 3: Mae Hong Son to Pai – Temples, Long Necks, and Caves

The day starts with panoramic views at Wat Phra That Doi Kong Mu, perched on a hill overlooking Mae Hong Son town. It’s the perfect place to snap sunrise photos and admire the sea of mist below.

Then, board a longtail boat for a scenic journey on the Pai River to Huay Pu Keng, home to the famous Long Neck Karen tribe. Here, you’ll get a chance to learn about their unique traditions and lifestyle—this isn’t a staged tourist show, but a genuine community living along the riverbanks.

After lunch, continue to the mysterious Tham Lod Cave, one of Northern Thailand’s most impressive limestone cave systems. Glide through the darkness on a bamboo raft, with guides lighting the way to reveal ancient coffins, massive rock columns, and dramatic stalactites.

As sunset approaches, drive to Phra That Mae Yen Temple, where you’ll enjoy spectacular panoramic views over Pai and its surrounding valley. The elevated location makes it a perfect sunset spot for those who love dramatic landscapes and golden light.

For guests who prefer a shorter walk or have limited mobility, we also offer an alternative sunset viewpoint at Two Huts Pai, providing equally beautiful sunset scenery without the climb.

Arrive in Pai by evening. After hotel check-in, dive into the fun and vibrant energy of Pai Walking Street, where night markets overflow with food stalls, handmade crafts, and live music. Stay overnight in Pai (Yoma Hotel or Similar)

DAY 4: Pai to Chiang Mai – Viewpoints, Waterfalls, and Canyon Adventures

Start your morning at the peaceful Santichon Chinese Village and enjoy sweeping views from Yun Lai Viewpoint, with misty mountains stretching out before you.

Next, cool off at Mor Pang Waterfall, where you can dip your toes or take a refreshing swim. After lunch, prepare for a short hike through the dramatic, red-earth paths of Pai Canyon—where narrow ridges offer stunning valley views and an adrenaline-pumping walk.

Before leaving Pai, stop at the World War II Memorial Bridge, a historic steel structure spanning the Pai River—perfect for your final photo stop.

Arrive back in Chiang Mai by early evening, your camera full and your heart satisfied.
