Mae Hong Son Loop Tour 4 Day

Go beyond the tourist map—experience real villages, mountain sunsets, and local hospitality on this loop tour.

If you’re looking for a tour that doesn’t just tick boxes but truly connects you with Northern Thailand, the Mae Hong Son Loop Tour 4 Day is exactly that. This is more than a sightseeing trip—it’s a chance to meet real locals, walk historic paths, and see landscapes that most travelers miss.

Day 1: The day starts with a comfortable hotel pick-up in Chiang Mai between 08:00–08:30 am. Leaving the city behind, your first stop is Doi Inthanon National Park, known not just for being Thailand’s highest peak, but also for its cool air and peaceful forest trails.Visit the King and Queen Pagoda, beautifully designed and surrounded by well-kept flower gardens. Stop next at Wachiratarn Waterfall, a popular local spot where families come to cool off and take photos.

After a local lunch, head to Obluang National Park. Walk the suspension bridge over the dramatic river gorge and learn about prehistoric rock paintings in the area. By evening, arrive at Maesariang, a small town with a relaxed riverside vibe. Check in at River House Resort and enjoy a quiet dinner by the river.

Day 2: After breakfast, start your day at Kaew Komol Cave, a unique geological site few tourists know about. The white crystal walls inside the cave create an almost magical atmosphere. During November to mid-December, the hills at Doi Mae U-Khor light up with blooming Mexican Sunflowers, a seasonal highlight loved by Thai photographers.

Following lunch, visit Ban Huay Pu Keng, a Karen Long Neck village. This is not a tourist show—the people here live as they have for generations. Take time to respectfully learn about their daily life and traditional crafts.

End the day with a peaceful visit to Wat Jong Kham and Wat Jong Klang, two temples beside a lake that becomes golden at sunset. Your accommodation for the night is Fern Resort, nestled in nature with simple, eco-friendly comfort.

Day 3: Begin the morning at Phra That Doi Kong Mu Temple, where locals come for sunrise prayers. The view over Mae Hong Son is beautiful and calming.

Next, drive towards Ban Jabo, a Lahu village where simple pleasures like a bowl of noodle soup become unforgettable when served with sweeping mountain views.

After lunch, head to Tham Lod Cave, a limestone cave with an underground river. Float on a bamboo raft guided by locals carrying lanterns, and discover wooden coffins and towering cave formations. As sunset nears, make your way to Phra That Mae Yen Temple for panoramic views over Pai. For guests who prefer less walking, we’ll take you to Two Huts Pai, a more accessible but equally scenic spot.

Spend the evening enjoying the laid-back vibe of Pai Walking Street, then rest at Yoma Hotel, a 4-star property with cozy mountain views.

Day 4: Catch sunrise at Yun Lai Viewpoint, where mist often blankets the valley in the early morning hours. Then, explore Santichon Village, a Yunnanese Chinese community where you can sample local teas and admire traditional clay homes. Afterward, take a refreshing swim at Mor Pang Waterfall, a favorite weekend escape for Pai locals.

Following lunch, explore the red cliffs and narrow trails of Pai Canyon, perfect for photos and short hikes. Before the final drive back, stop at the Tha Pai Memorial Bridge, a piece of WWII history with scenic river views.

Arrive back in Chiang Mai around 7:00 pm, closing your unforgettable Mae Hong Son Loop Tour 4 Day.
