- Grasshopper Active - Chiang Mai Day Tours by Bike - Explore Chiang Mai’s mountain temples effortlessly with three convenient daily departures! Begin your adventure at the Discova Day Tour Shop and board a shared red songthaew, the popular local passenger truck, for a leisurely journey towards the lush foothills of Doi Suthep. Opt for the private tour and enjoy direct hotel pickup and drop-off within Chiang Mai.
- Huay Keaw Waterfall - The first stop is Huay Kaew Waterfall, a tranquil retreat just outside the city. Enjoy a brief nature walk, breathe in the refreshing forest air, and follow the easy trail leading to the next attraction.
- Wat Pha Lat - The tour continues to Wat Pha Lat, a peaceful jungle temple nestled quietly on the mountainside. Stroll through forest paths, cross stone bridges, and admire gentle waterfalls as you explore the temple grounds at your leisure. There is no guide, allowing you to soak in the serene atmosphere, sculptures, shrines, and the lush forest surroundings that make this temple unique.
- Wat Phra That Doi Suthep - Ascend the winding mountain road to the highlight of your journey: Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, Chiang Mai’s most renowned temple. Climb the iconic 306-step Naga staircase or take the cable car to reach the golden chedi at the summit. Relish the panoramic views from the terrace, explore the temple complex, and absorb the spiritual ambiance of this 14th-century landmark.

Good value for money - Well organised, with plenty of time to explore each of the stops. The start and end point is in the old town, with no hotel pick up options.

Great and easy way to see the temples. - This was the perfect way to experience the sites. You are able to roam at your own pace and the sites are lovely. My driver was great, kind and helpful.

Perfect amount of time - We had an excellent driver in Mr. Dang who pointed us in the right direction at each stop and was ready for us, when we were to move on. I thought the time spent at each location was just right.

Beautiful temple and view from top of mountain - Great price for guided tour to special temple at top of mountain. I loved riding up in tram instead of walking stairs. It is such a unique temple. Red truck was a cheap way to get there and included a very informative guide. Was so happy I was able to book at last minute.

Trip up to Doi Suthep - We just loved this tour, the driver. Sadly, I have forgotten his name, he was the most jovial fellow. The tour took us to the water fall and two temples, which was self guided and exactly what we wanted. We were given plenty of time at each stop and could have spent longer if we wanted as we opted for hotel pick up, which gave us the vehicle to ourselves. Ir is not a regular Songtheuw. The back is padded, and the door is locked for safely, so you get the experience but in more comfort. Absolutely wonderful day. Sadly, it was time to come home. Otherwise, I would have booked other tours

Transportation to the different stops - Keep in mind that this is really just transportation to the different stops in a red truck. The driver while extremely nice just drives you to the destination and tells you how much time you have. If you are a group it may be better to arrange transportation on you own. Good for solo travellers who don’t want a tour guide.

Bien - The visits were good. A little more time at Wat Pha Lat and less at the waterfall would have been better. The driver should have gone slower. Two of my children got carsick, and one vomited. He was on time.

Organise yourself cheaper - All this is a a baht taxi driving you to each location.
Go and organise on the street with a vendor direct alot cheaper.
Discova are good and organised but should put more information in description so you know what you are in for.
