Chiang Mai Hotel Specials

Chiang-Mai is a must to visit. A perfect place to witness the Thai culture in this 700 year old walled city. The wet season is from june to October with the wettest month being September. We visited in July and had a few very welcomed showers whilst on a mountain trek. The people in Chaing-mai were in my opinion a reason to visit again. On our mountain trek, a two day hike including an elephant ride and bamboo canoe, the guides were good humored and patient with the slower members of our party. A must is a Thai massage, great value and we could affort an hour long body massage every day not a luxury I would normally do at home. Chaing-Mai is one of Thailand's main tourist destinations. Shopping in Thailand goes without saying.

Next trip I am going with just the clothes I am wearing and replacing my wardrope whilst I'm there. Clothing, and souvenirs are complemented with an extensive range of electrical and computer goods. We took the plunge and hired a couple of motor bikes and risked our lives in the trafic. It was a highlight of the trip, and every traffic light was a mass of bikes all racing off in front of the cars. We took our bikes to the zoo and up to a wak in the mountains. There are hotels and accommodation houses in Chiang-Mai to suite every budget.
