Booking tips

Hotel prices are generally lower during the rainy season (June to October). Book in advance, especially if travelling during peak season (November to February) or major festivals like Yi Peng (Lantern Festival). Look for hotels that include breakfast for better value.

Food to try

Khao Soi is a must try, a creamy coconut curry noodle soup, found at many local restaurants. Try Sai Oua, a flavorful northern Thai sausage, often sold at markets like Warorot Market. Mango sticky rice is widely available and very popular.

Getting around

Songthaews (red trucks) are a common and affordable way to get around; negotiate the price beforehand. Tuk tuks are readily available but more expensive. App based ride hailing services like Grab are also an option.
