It was a really good workout, but a bit shorter compared to the original route. We got a private tour since no one else signed up. Our guide Danai gave us a really awesome experience and as a bonus he was also able to answer a lot of questions regarding Thailand and Chiang Mai. He also showed us where to find the some local markets and other interesting things to see while in Chiang Mai.”
