Chiang Mai café hopping in one day
Chiang Mai’s cafés are spread across many neighbourhoods, in town and out of it. With a car and driver you can cover several areas in one day without looking for parking. Send us your list of cafés in the chat and we’ll group them by area so you don’t double back.
Suits groups of friends, couples and anyone who loves taking photos.
