PROGRAM DETAILS
The tour starts with a drive to the mountain temple of Wat Prathat Doi Suthep (often referred to as simply "Doi Suthep"), the most famous landmark of Chiang Mai. Climb the Naga staircase to visit the exquisite golden pagoda. The sound of temple bells fills the air and the view overlooking the city makes an irresistible photo opportunity. Afterwards drive up the mountain by "songtaew" onto a rough dirt road to the Chang Khien Coffee Research Project where you can enjoy a cup of the local "arabica" surrounded by fabulous gardens of flowers. Continue to the white Hmong village of Chang Khien where the 800 inhabitants still wear their traditional hill tribe clothes and practice a culture that dates back 500 years. Return to Chiang Mai.

I was on a recent tour to Thailand organised by yourselves. I just wanted to commend you on the superb package you provided.
The itinerary was interesting and varied, your driver Korn gave excellent service, and as a guide, Mr Woodywas outstanding. His knowledge of Thailand history is extensive, and he went out of his way to ensure that we enjoyed every moment of our trip. He certainly exceeded our expectations.
The visit to Elephant Hills in Khao Sok was excellent and should definitely be included in the itinerary of all your guests visiting the Southern part of Thailand
Thank you for a most memorable tour.
Kind regards,

Dear Mr. Tran Minh Trung,
My Wife and I have just returned to UK after spending several weeks in both Vietnam and Thailand. There is no doubt that the highlight of our travels was spent in Vietnam on a luxury trip organised by you and Exotissimo.
Your planning and organisation of our trip was superb and we must thank your staff, Mr Tien the Guide and Mr. Hom the Driver for the superb manner in which they escorted us to our various locations.
Thank you so very much.
Sincerely,
Mr. & Mrs Michael Valentine

Kay / Edwin,
Tthank you both so much for all the work / effort that Exotissimo has put in over the last 4 weeks to ensure that my family and I are able to board the plane in Bangkok on Saturday to enjoy our trip around Myanmar. Although the Myanmar Embassy in Bangkok did their best to stop us travelling, your efforts have ensured that we are on our way.
At the end of the day, what makes a good tour company stand out, is the service provided to it's clients. Exotissimo has certainly provided a good service so far to this particular client.
Looking forward to a great trip around the beautiful country of Myanmar.
