Q
I’m staying at a hotel near Silom. What pickup time should I choose for this tour? Charles - 309 Days ago
A
If you’re an early riser and prefer fewer crowds, we recommend selecting the early pickup at 06:00 hrs. You’ll enjoy a more peaceful train ride and experience the floating market while it’s still lively with local vendors.
However, if you prefer a more relaxed morning, you can choose the later pickup at 08:00 hrs. Please note that the market might be quieter and the weather hotter by the time you arrive.

If I plan to book the tour on January 16th, will I still see many fireflies? Wong - 1 year ago
A
Fireflies can be seen all year round. In January, which falls during the cool season, you can still see a good number of them. Plus, January 16th falls on a moonless night, so there will be no moonlight interference, making the fireflies’ glow even more visible and magical.

Q
My daughter and i will be visiting Chiang Mai from dec 31- Jan 4. Could we do the firefly tour one of the nights we are there?
Read about the lights in the night and want to see it!
Please advise? julie - 1 year ago
A
Thank you for your inquiry about the firefly tour in Chiang Mai. Unfortunately, Chiang Mai is not known for fireflies, and such tours are not available here.
However, Chiang Mai offers many other magical nighttime experiences! You might enjoy visiting the night markets, such as the Chiang Mai Night Bazaar or the Sunday Walking Street. Alternatively, you could explore the beautiful light displays at local temples, like Wat Phra Singh or Wat Chedi Luang, which are especially stunning in the evening.
Please let me know if you would like assistance with planning or booking other activities during your stay.
