Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai 2 Day Tour with Flights from Pattaya

This is the only way to fit both Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai into two days without losing one of them to a six-hour drive. On this tour you fly between cities in about an hour each way, so every hour goes to temples and mountains, not a highway. Day one alone covers Thailand's highest point at Doi Inthanon, a royal flower garden, Siriphum Waterfall, the ancient Wat Chedi Luang, the hand-crafted Silver Temple and the sacred Doi Suthep. Day two adds Chiang Rai's three signature temples, the White, Blue and Big Buddha temple, plus a stop at natural hot springs along the way. Your tickets to every paid site are booked before you land, so you walk past the queues other travelers stand in, and your guide explains the history and symbolism behind each stop rather than leaving you to read a plaque. Built for travelers with limited vacation days who refuse to choose between the two cities, and for anyone who wants substance over a rushed highlight reel.
