Just got back from this fabulous tour that completely exceeded our expectations. We really enjoyed our time & had a great experience with our guide Sunny and driver Mr Tawha; they were both extraordinary. We really appreciate the Thai culture and way of life with different eyes, we tried almost every fruit and every dish, food was amazing thou and of course the people very warm, nice and friendly Sunny was an outstanding guide with a massive knowledge about history, religion, culture, technology and tourists/travellers, he knows how to identify people preferences and with this giving us the chance to have a more personalized experience. Sunny and Mr Tawha were both very friendly and flexible; they both went above and beyond in terms of providing us with the best of the tour. In general the tour is highly recommended 6 days are enough to have a good insight of the country, with plenty of temples to visit, parks, stupas and many km along the road in a comfortable van with A/C and good company. Destinations Service delivers a great service too, the people are very helpful.

The tour guide was super friendly! The hotels kept getting better. We would have liked more local food and not just tourist restaurants with dishes adapted to Europeans. In short, it was a pleasant trip with a great route :)

Booking a 9-daya in Bangkok and Northern Thailand combo tour with Destination Services was one of the best decisions made.

Fabulous combo packed tour visiting all the important and amazing sights of Thailand in less than 10 days. I couldn't visit this country in such short time on my own in a week and learn so much about the culture, history and nature. Pros: knowledgeable guide, strategically located and good quality hotel's options, all the activities scheduled and visited as advised. Cons: some days are tiring and you have to cover long distance, bt is the price you pay to see so much in such short time, otherwise would be impossible
