Tour Plan

Hotel Pickup – Start Your Northern Thailand Escape

Your adventure begins with a convenient hotel pickup anywhere in Chiang Mai. Relax in a private vehicle as you leave the city behind, traveling north through peaceful countryside. Along the way, enjoy views of traditional Thai villages, vibrant rice paddies, and dense forests. Your knowledgeable guide will share stories about local culture, history, and the natural environment, setting the tone for an authentic and immersive experience.

Arrival at Bua Thong “Sticky” Waterfalls – Nature’s Unique Playground

Once you arrive, you’ll find yourself in a lush forest setting, surrounded by the calming sounds of flowing water and birdsong. Bua Thong Waterfalls are unlike any other waterfalls you’ve seen—the unique limestone formations create a naturally grippy surface, allowing you to climb right up the cascading water without fear of slipping. Kick off your shoes, feel the cool water, and get ready to explore this incredible natural wonder barefoot.

Guided Waterfall Climb – Adventure Meets Safety

With your guide leading the way, begin your climb up the multiple tiers of the waterfall. The climb is accessible for most fitness levels and is full of fun challenges. You’ll stop at scenic points perfect for photos, where you can soak in panoramic views of the surrounding jungle and sparkling water. Your guide will make sure you take the safest path and offer interesting facts about the geology and wildlife around you. It’s a one-of-a-kind climbing experience that’s both exhilarating and surprisingly easy thanks to the sticky limestone.

Swim in Natural Pools – Refresh and Relax

After your climb, cool off in the natural pools at the waterfall’s base. The water is crystal clear and refreshing—a perfect way to unwind after your activity. Whether you want to dip your toes or enjoy a full swim, the pools provide a safe and tranquil spot to relax while surrounded by nature.

Forest Nature Walk – Calm and Connect with the Outdoors

Take a leisurely walk along nearby forest trails. This peaceful stroll lets you absorb the beauty of Northern Thailand’s native plants, listen to the melodies of local birds, and spot butterflies fluttering through the trees. Your guide can point out interesting flora and fauna and share tips on sustainable tourism and conservation efforts in the area. It’s a gentle way to round out your visit and connect with nature on a deeper level.

Return Drive to Chiang Mai – Wrap Up with Local Insights

After a day full of adventure and relaxation, your guide will drive you back to Chiang Mai. Use this time to ask for recommendations on where to eat, shop, or explore next. Whether you want to try local dishes, visit temples, or find hidden gems off the tourist trail, your guide is happy to share insider tips to help you make the most of your stay.

Fun time at the Sticky Waterfalls

My grandson had a fabulous time & the guide was right there along side him. He showed him where to go, how to navigate the falls while doing it safely. He also took great pictures which he share & were a much different perspective than what I did..

A Wonderful Bua Thong Sticky Waterfalls Tour

We took Bua Thong Sticky Waterfalls Tour on March 13th. The driver and guide picked me up on time from our hotel lobby. The guide Miss Apiradee Pitpeeraka led the way to some interesting spots which were great as an introduction to Bua Thong Sticky Waterfalls and provided us with great photo opportunities. I highly recommend this tour. The guide was very knowledgeable and helpful..
