Experience the Wat Doi Suthep Tour and immerse yourself in the authentic culture of the White Meo Hilltribe and the picturesque Hmong Village. Discover the untouched beauty of these communities away from the tourist crowds.
- Hilltribe Villages - For those interested in experiencing the Hmong hilltribe culture in a more authentic and less touristy manner compared to the Meo hilltribe village, this excursion is ideal. Situated an additional 18 kilometers beyond Wat Doi Suthep, nestled in the Doi Suthep Pui National Park mountains, lies a White Meo Hilltribe village. This community remains largely untouched by tourism and maintains a traditional way of life.
- Wat Phra That Doi Suthep - Doi Suthep is an integral part of Chiang Mai’s backdrop. There’s a local adage that states, “One has not truly visited Chiang Mai unless they have savored Khao Soi or witnessed the panorama from Doi Suthep.” This majestic mountain rises above the city to the northwest, offering spectacular views from its peak. Beyond its impressive silhouette against the sky, Doi Suthep is also the site of some of the Kingdom’s most cherished cultural icons.

If you are wanting to see the Hmong hilltribe people in a less commercialized setting (more natural) way than the Meo hilltribe village, then this is the tour for you.Located a further 18 kilometres from Wat Doi Suthep into the mountains of Doi Suthep Pui National Park, is a White Meo Hilltribe, a relatively unspoiled hilltribe village which has not seen the affects of tourism enter daily life.
In fact, to better navigate the narrow, mountainous, dirt road, a local Songteow is utilized for transportation. (The Songteow is a common method of transport in Thailand, used as a means of public transportation in many parts of the country. Essentially, it is a covered, open-air pick-up with seats lining both sides of the interior.).The journey to the hilltribe follows a visit to the celebrated temple of Wat Doi Suthep.
