ChiangMai

[ApeTruelove]

If cannot tahan, go up Wat Phra That Doi Suthep by road. 45min away from the old city. Good view of the city and the airport from the temple.

if can tahan 1.5hr drive can try doi ithanon, thailand highest peak. no need to hike as got road going up.

doi ithanon in my list, maybe join in Klook small group tour with guide.

Doi Suthep in my list, planning to hire a driver to do both Doi Suthep and khun chang khian (Jan). I understand that Wat Phra got "lift" to go to the top.
Thanks both of you. Feel free to add more tips for my planning.

The Wat Phra That Doi Suthep is not half as high as Doi Inthanon, but you get a bird's eye view of Chiangmai. The lift has to be a new addition. The temple is easily accessible by songthaew from the city.

Chiangmai is quite a distance from the sea. The first thing on my mind is not the seafood.

Me too.
After checking the map, Chiangmai possible to import seafood from the nearest myanmar city. Nearer than BKK

Using grab in Chiangmai

Would like some advice regarding traveling around Chiangmai. I'm looking to use grab to get around chiangmai (with small kid).

If i connect my phone via wifi to a wifi egg (router), can grab services still be used?

Or would it be safer if I just buy a sim card. Which company is better? I see the one sold in Changi recommends is dtac (https://www.changirecommends.com/deal.aspx?id=30154).

We used dtac bought from Changi recommends. No issue.
Download the Bolt app. It's similar to Grab. Can register with Singapore number.
Bolt is cheaper than Grab.
We used Bolt most of the time, only used Grab once from airport to hotel.

Changi recommends has collection counters at T1 and T2. Choose 1 that is convenient for you.
If you purchase online, there's no need to indicate which collection counter.
Just print out your ticket then collect on the day you depart.

Songthaew is cheap (no air con), if there is one happen to near you, can hire it. Price is 30baht per person, if more person can negotiate with the driver.

@roborovsky
Did you hire a private driver during your trip? I'm looking for 1, for a day trip, a car will be better. Usually private driver cum van, too big for 2 person.
