Our Guide and The Driver

You know, meeting them makes you feel glad. Feeling glad because you know in this world, there are still people whom genuinely want to make you feel at home at their country.

We have been to numerous places throughout the years, and whenever we think about taking up tours, we are like a deflated balloons. Too many unproductive shopping tours that I deemed "The Slaughter House", too many untold fees that were charged upon us. So, we wasn't really expecting too much when I contacted Noi, our tour guide for her service.

PC190441


She runs a small humble private tour business, and we have been very comfortable with her service. The van the driver drove was a very comfortable 10 people seating one too.

It is the small little things that count. She took us out for dinner (paid ourselves), despite it was way pass the time to send us back to the hotel. She let the driver stop us at the roadside sampling all the snacks, fruits sold sold along to way to Chiang Rai. And the night before we go back, she and the driver brought us to a local market so we can stock our luggage with good Mangoes and Oranges.

We feel very welcome at her presence. Noi and the driver (Thep) was a friend to us.

Look for them if you are ever there
