Chiang Mai - The Golden Triangle Loop

The tour travels north to the Thai-Myanmar frontier high on Doi (mount) Tung before turning east to the "Golden Triangle" at the meeting point of Laos, Myanmar and Thailand on the River.

You may return via Chiang Rai and the Mae Lao valley for a quicker route (4 days/3 nights), or you may go on a longer more spectacular route (4WD recommended, min. 5 days/4 nights) to complete the triangle by following the Mekhong east along the Laotian border to Doi Pha Tang, before turning south-west to return via Phayao.


Though our recommended and alternative routes/side trips are based on careful research, your itinerary is as flexible as you wish to make it. So relax, pack a few tapes for our car stereos (the latest popular music is locally available for less than US$ 3 a tape), and drive off into the mysterious triangle of gold.

Accommodation at three levels is listed, but prices vary greatly according to season. In the high season (December though February), advance booking is advisable.
