Getting Around

Motorcycle/Bike
In Chiang Mai, moto rides typically cost around 40-60 THB for short trips within the city, and you can easily hail them from popular spots like Nimmanhaemin or the Old City. For a safer experience, always wear a helmet and check if the driver has one available; it’s the law and can save you from hefty fines.
On Foot
Chiang Mai’s Old City is pedestrian-friendly, and walking is free—just grab a map from your hotel to pinpoint attractions like Wat Phra Singh and Thapae Gate within a 20-minute stroll. Insider tip: stroll east towards the Sunday Walking Street Market (from 4pm to midnight) for local crafts and food without the crowds of tourists.

« The Night Market in Chiang Mai is totally a tourist trap, but I really enjoyed the vibe. Live music, delicious food, and hundreds of travelers from all over the world, all enjoying life and smiling at each other—where else can you find that? 😊 »

« We went to Chiang Mai. We liked it, but it's a pity there's no sea. Even though we don't swim in it, the blue surface from the balcony still warms the soul... 😊 »

« My last day in Chiang Mai flew by in an instant. I can only dream of coming back here next time with my friends. »

« Chiang Mai is a city located within a square perimeter, surrounded by water and the remnants of a wall. It's a fascinating place with a multitude of temples, and I definitely enjoy my time here! 😊 »

« Today I say goodbye to Chiang Mai and take my favorite train to Bangkok. I've spent 1.5 months in Chiang Mai and absolutely fell in love with this wonderful city, so it's a bit sad to leave and I'm already dreaming of coming back..) »

« Do you know what I like about Chiang Mai? They preserve history. For example, the old pagoda is located in the schoolyard. »
