Chiang Mai quickly won us over for its amazing food scene (Khao Soi, anyone?), stunning temples, and a much calmer atmosphere than chaotic Bangkok. But if you have extra time, there are so many fantastic day trips from Chiang Mai that are worth checking out!
This week on the podcast, Kat and Chris dive into the top day trips and tours from Chiang Mai. So whether you have a full day to devote to a day trip or just a few hours, there are several great things to do outside of the city of Chiang Mai.
Get the most out of your time in Chiang Mai with these incredible day trips ranging from hiking and waterfalls to visiting wildlife!
