I’m really glad I chose Big Smile Tour. My guide, Benja Tepin, was extremely helpful and friendly. She picked me up right on time and explained the local culture of Chiang Rai very well, which made the trip more meaningful and enjoyable. Everything was well organized and smooth. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a reliable and informative tour in Chiang Rai.

Benja was the guide. She is personable, caring, and extremely knowledgeable. I could not have asked for a better guide. She made the day / tour so interesting and engaging. I would recommend using her as a tour guide. No one is better.
Great day trip with spontaneous adjustments

I had a great day trip with Benja yesterday. Being alone, I was able to make the process more flexible than indicated in the program. That was great as I had seen some things in advance and wanted to discover something new. Benja took me to the Black House and the Opium Museum at my request and gave me enough time there. We also visited a lesser known temple with a skywalk and great views of the river, the village of the longneck Karen and the golden triangle. I saved the river trip and the trip to Laos. Banja speaks good English, knows the area very well and is always friendly. I really liked the fact that she was so attuned to me and reacted flexibly. If you are planning a day trip with Benja, it is best to call directly. Thank you for the great day, Benja!
Unique experience with Benja

Little feedback: I took a tour today to the Golden Triangle and I found myself alone... Result: improvised private tour with Benja an incredible guide! Flexible, kind, pro, she adapted the whole program just for me, added a temple I wanted to see. Really top: human, reliable and with little care. I recommend it 100%!
Excellent experience!! Highly recommend!

I had the opportunity to visit a northern circuit, Golden Triangle, White and Blue Temple, Lao all in one day. A busy program but one that is organized by a high-level professional guide. Benja knows the history of northern Thailand well. Helpful, do not hesitate to ask questions about the history of the north. Benja is tjrs available to render you services, it is a top circuit, to do when you move to chiang Rai.
Great experience! 100% recommend

Benja was our tour guide. She is super nice, very knowledgeable about history, very patience and made our tour enjoyable. After the tour she took my husband and I to a local Thai massage place to have a great massage. She not only drive us to the place she stayed and waited for us for 1 hour massage to leave us at our hotel afterwards. We recommend her and definitely when we come back to Chiang Rai we look for her again. Try this tour is very interesting and Benja is a great tour guide. Thank you Benja!! 🙏🏻

I was joined (as a single group) by two other people who had hired a different tour. I did not make the planned Mekong walk of an hour and a half but it was halved (45 minutes). In short, the tour of the other people was made, except for the 45 minutes they waited, visiting the area, while the guide and I did the boat ride. In addition, the other tour was cheaper and included the food -which I had to pay for apart, there it was respected what was planned in my tour: to pay for the food. In short, I recommend not to book this tour. I'll also file a complaint.
