What to do in Chiang Rai?

With waterfalls, hot springs and treks to visit the hill tribes of Northern Thailand, a trip to Chiang Rai are perfect for the true traveller. If you want to discover the 'real' Thailand, beyond the beaches, bars and bad stuff, then head north. This breathtaking part of Thailand is sure to open your mind and award you with some unforgettable, life-affirming experiences.

The top attractions include the White Temple, a highlight of any visit to Chiang Rai. The temple, also known as Wat Rong Khun is a stunning mix of traditional and contemporary design. You'll spot the same style on the Chiang Rai Clock Town, designed by the same man. No less impressive is the Black House (or Baan Dam Museum). Inspired by the architect of the White Temple, it's decorations include both traditional Thai art and a morbid mix of animal skins and skulls. You can see some more art and culture at the Oub Kham Museum.

Of course, you won't want to come to Thailand without seeing some of the beautiful natural surroundings. From the stunning 10 metre high Khun Korn Waterfall (an hour from Chiang Rai by taxi) and the famous Pong Phra Bat hot springs (with private but cheap hot tubs) to Doi Mae Salong mountain, you'll be spoilt for choice. If you have the time, take a day trip to the Golden Triangle, the famous spot where Thailand, Myanmar and Laos meet.

Types of HolidayTaxis transfer vehicles
March 31, 2023

At HolidayTaxis, we recognize that every traveler is different and may have their own preferences and requirements for their airport transfers. To accommodate this, we offer a diverse range of transfer vehicles for our customers to choose from, each with its own set of benefits and advantages.

For example, if you're traveling in a large group, our minibus or shared airport shuttle transfers might be the best option for you, as they can comfortably accommodate a larger number of passengers and their luggage. On the other hand, if you're traveling with just one or two companions, a private car may be more suitable for you as they offer a more intimate and personalised experience.
