With your own private guide, take a trip to the mountains in Chiang Mai. A relaxing drive takes you up the slopes of Doi Suthep Peak to visit a Meo hilltribe to observe their simple way of life. The Meo hilltribe originated in South China and usually live on mountain peaks or plateaus above 3000 feet. Due to its proximity to Wat Phra That Doi Suthep which is visited by many tourists, this particular village is a little more commercial than the traditional hilltribe villages.

This is followed by a visit to the most sacred temple in the north, Wat Phra That Doi Suthep (A.D.1384), containing a holy relic of Lord Buddha, with a challenging flight of over 300 steps, flanked by enormous mythological Nagas. A panoramic view of the city can be seen from here at 3,500 feet above sea level. On a clear day the panoramic views of the city from the temple ground are truly spectacular!

A visit to Thailand is hardly complete without a visit to Bangkok and in particular the Grand Palace and Temple of the Emerald Buddha. This is a "must see" for all visitors to Bangkok.

The Grand Palace Complex, which includes the Temple of the Emerald Buddha (Wat Phra Keow) is unquestionably one of the wonders of the world today. Within its enormous grounds is the most exotic Buddhist Temple and at the heart of the temple itself is a fabulous Buddha image, carved from one piece of jade, which is the holiest and most revered of religious objects in Thailand today.

Lunch and shopping time is included on the tour.
