Our Travel Stories
Explore Chiang Mai in the Green Season
During the rainy season (June to October.), Chiang Mai becomes incredibly green. The mountains and rice fields are at their most beautiful, and the cooler weather, fresh air, and misty mornings make everything feel calm and relaxing. It’s also one of the best times for photography, with beautiful scenery, soft natural light, and plenty of amazing views.
Pa Pong Piang – Rice Terraces
Ban Pa Pong Piang is a small mountain village in Doi Inthanon National Park, famous for its stunning terraced rice fields. The green season from July to September offers the most beautiful views, while October turns the fields golden for harvest. A peaceful place to enjoy nature, experience local Karen culture, and capture some of the best landscape photos in northern Thailand.
Doi Inthanon National Park
The rainy season is one of the best times to visit Doi Inthanon National Park, when the forests are lush, the waterfalls are at their fullest, and the mountains are often covered in beautiful mist.
Mae Kampong Village
Mae Kampong is a charming mountain village surrounded by lush forests, streams, and fresh air. During the rainy season, the village becomes even more beautiful with misty views, flowing waterfalls, and a peaceful atmosphere.
Ban Rak Thai Village
(Mae Hong Son Province)
Ban Rak Thai is a charming Yunnanese village in Mae Hong Son, famous for its Chinese culture, tea plantations, mountain lake, and authentic local cuisine. Its romantic scenery and peaceful atmosphere make it a perfect destination for couples and anyone looking to relax.

Me encanta recomendarles cuando alguien se lo merece y nuestro guía @marshmallow_mumu Mui; el encargado de que no la pasáramos increíble, merece todas las recomendaciones. Nos llevó a los lugares más top, nos explicó todo a detalle, nos llevaba a comer a lugares deli y además es fotógrafo y nos tomó miles de fotos para que tengamos estos recuerdos para siempre.
Los días que nos tocó visitar Chiang Mai hubo inundaciones terribles que hace 17 años no se habían visto. Y a pesar de tener que lidiar con su casa afectada por esto y la travesía que era llegar hacia nosotros, siempre mantuvo una sonrisa y la mejor actitud. Nunca se quejó! De verdad que nos enseñó bastante sobre lo que es ver la vida con actitud de gratitud y ganas de vivirla!!
Si tienen en mente ir a Chiang Mai y Chiang Rai háblenle!! Es un tipazo. Esto no es publicidad ni mucho menos! Solo quiero que se le devuelva los gestos tan amables que tuvo con nosotros!!
Ana
Disfrutamos cada minuto, los templos, la comida, y lo más importante que viva el amor y el romance
Nuestro guía @marshmallow_mumu nos hizo el itinerario, nos llevó a los mejores restaurantes y nos tomó las fotos más hermosas, Definitivamente una experiencia que nunca olvidaré
Thank you Mui, We hope to see you soon ✨5⭐️

In the evening we go on a foodie tour via Tuk Tuk. We walk all through the local market (Waroros Market), eat an amazing Noodle dish. We drive through Old Town and visit a temple, then end the tour at Chang phuak gate Night Market, where we try many local dishes recommended by our guide. Soooo goooood!
