Custom Chiang Mai & Northern Thailand Tours: Create Your Own Trip

Our custom Northern Thailand tours let you choose where to go and how much time to spend at each stop. Start with a day of temples and local markets in Chiang Mai, or plan a longer trip through Chiang Rai, Pai, and Mae Hong Son.

With Create Your Own Trip from CM Local Tour, you choose the places and activities that interest you. Our Chiang Mai team reviews your route, suggests adjustments where they make sense, and prepares a personalized quote for your group.

Choose where you want to go in Northern Thailand

Start with the places you most want to visit. You can choose stops from the trip planner or enter a place of your own, even if it isn’t listed on our website. That could be a village you’ve heard about, a café a friend recommended, or a market you’d like to explore.

If you already have a schedule in mind, assign each stop to a day. If you’re still deciding, share your priorities and how much time you have. We’ll look at the order of your stops and the travel time between them before preparing your quote.

Four Ideas for Custom Northern Thailand Tours

Chiang Mai temples and local food

Doi Suthep Wat Pha Lat temple tour Chiang Mai
Wat Phra That Doi Suthep, Chiang Mai

Start with Wat Pha Lat and Doi Suthep, then stop for lunch or explore a local market. Tell us whether you’d prefer an early start or a more relaxed morning.

A day in Chiang Rai

White Temple (Wat Rong Khun), Chiang Rai

Build your route around the White Temple, Blue Temple, and Baan Dam Museum, also known as the Black House. If you’re starting in Chiang Mai, let us know which stops matter most so we can review how they fit into your day.

A multi-day trip through Pai and Mae Hong Son

Historic Bridge in Pai – Elephant and Pai Tour

Give yourself time to explore Pai before continuing to Mae Hong Son. Share the viewpoints, towns, or villages you’d like to visit, and tell us where you’re thinking of staying overnight.

Temples and old-town streets in Lamphun and Lampang

Consider Wat Phra That Hariphunchai in Lamphun and Wat Phra That Lampang Luang in Lampang. If you’d also like time to walk around Lampang’s old town, tell us how many days you have and what you’d most like to see.

What should I include in my trip request?

If you’re staying in Chiang Mai, tell us your hotel name or the area where you plan to stay. If you haven’t booked a hotel yet, share your likely starting point. For a trip across several provinces, mention where you’d like to finish and whether you already have accommodation booked along the way.

Let us know if anyone in your group would prefer shorter walks, fewer stairs, or more breaks between stops. If you’re traveling with children or older family members, tell us what a comfortable day looks like for them. These details help us suggest a route that suits the whole group.

Finally, flag any fixed plans, such as a flight, a hotel check-in, or a dinner reservation. Put your must-see places first, then list any optional stops you’d be happy to visit if time allows.

How to request a personalized quote

  1. Add your stops. Select places in the planner or enter your own, then assign them to your travel days.
  2. Tell us about your group. Share your dates, group size, and the services you’d like. Include any must-see stops or preferences about the pace of the trip.
  3. Send your request. Our local team will review your route and prepare a quote based on your itinerary and preferred services.
