Local life evocatively reveals itself along the riverbanks. Fishermen head out in their wooden boats, children play in the shallows, and wooden houses stand beside luxury modern residences. 

After a stroll through a farmhouse in Mae Rim you’ll cruise down the Mae Ping River, savoring the indelible local sights of rural Thailand. Jump off the boat and head deep into these local scenes, wandering through the charismatic Wararos fresh food market and then travelling by a trishaw to the crumbling sights of Chiang Mai.

There are few more serene ways to spend a day in Thailand.
