Day wise Itinerary

• Day 1 : White Temple, Golden Triangle, Mekong River, Burmese Border Market

  Start the trip by meeting your guide at your hotel 8:30am then departing by private vehicle on the road to Chiang Rai. You will drive through Northern Thailand’s scenery for approximately 3 hours with a break at a local coffee shop for lunch. Visit the famous Wat Rong Khun (White Temple), a contemporary Buddhist Temple rebuilt by a self-funded National Artist as an offering to Lord Buddha. Construction of this intricate temple is expected to continue until 2070! Continue with a brief visit of Chiang Rai city before continuing to Chiang Saen and the Golden Triangle; here you will see where Thailand, Laos and Myanmar meet and the place which was once a major hub for Opium trade. Next we head to Mae Sai on the border of Myanmar where you can experience a burmese market and potentially enter Myanmar (border pass fee not included). After a full day of exploring, we head back to Chiang Rai city to check into our hotel. Dinner and evening activities are at your own leisure.
