Chiang Dao Cave and Long Neck Village

Overview

This tour includes the Chiang Dao cave and temple as well as visiting with five different ethnic hill tribes  from northern Thailand and Myanmar (Burma): Big ears Karen, Palong, Long Neck Karen, Lahu and Akha.

Booking for 1 person, please contact us.

Our day trip starts around 8 AM, when we pick you up from your hotel. We drive north a little more than an hour through scenic mountain roads. The trip starts with a visit to the Chiang Dao Cave, a natural landmark with kilometers of dark, stalactite tunnels. Look for beautiful formations of limestone that are almost crystal-like. Also, see wonderful Buddhist sculptures during a visit to a Chiang Dao temple.

We visit an orchid farm to see a diverse array of flowers and how they grow. Next, we move on to the five different tribes  of the Big Earring Karen, Lahu, Akha, Palong and Long Neck Karen. The Karen people are known for their distinctive jewelry: women wear golden rings that elongate their necks and large earrings to make their ears bigger. These people are native to Myanmar (Burma), but are refugees in Thailand. You can buy a number of products from the hill tribes.
