The Journey Begins: A Weekend Getaway to Mae Hong Son

My adventure began with a casual scroll through a travel page. A comment caught my eye, leading me to the "Chic Chill Trip" page. Intrigued by their budget-friendly and exciting itineraries, I started browsing their upcoming trips. The "Tung Bua Tong" trip instantly resonated with me – the timing was perfect, and Mae Hong Son had been on my travel bucket list for a while. After a quick inquiry and confirmation, I secured my spot with a 1,000 baht deposit. The remaining balance of 2,900 baht (or 3,200 baht if the group size was less than 10) was due 7 days before the trip.

The excitement began the moment I met my fellow travelers – 10 strangers, 1 staff member, and 1 driver, all crammed into a van. Our journey started on Friday, November 23rd, 2018, at 8:00 PM, and we were scheduled to return to Bangkok by 1:00 AM on Sunday, November 25th, 2018.

Our accommodation was at the Baan Paka Kayor Homestay in Doi Mae U Kho. During the trip, we visited various destinations, including:

  • Ob Luang National Park: Immersed in the beauty of this natural wonder.
  • Bo Kaew Pine Forest: Strolled through the serene pine forest.
  • Tung Bua Tong: Witnessed the breathtaking fields of blooming sunflowers.
  • Mae Surin Waterfall: Refreshed ourselves with the cascading waters of the waterfall.
  • Phu Chi Fa: Took in the panoramic views from this stunning viewpoint.

For meals, we relied on convenience stores during travel and enjoyed home-cooked meals at the homestay. In the evening, we indulged in a delicious "moo kata" (Thai BBQ) feast at the top of Doi Mae U Kho.

Unfortunately, due to limited time, we couldn't stop for souvenirs. However, I highly recommend checking out the Chic Chill Trip page for future travel inspiration: https://web.facebook.com/chicchilltrip/

This trip was a testament to the joy of travel and the importance of stepping outside our comfort zones. It reminded me that life is more than just work and home – it's about exploring, connecting with new people, and creating unforgettable memories.

Special thanks to my amazing travel companions and the Chic Chill Trip team for making this weekend getaway truly unforgettable!

A heavenly scene, a true dreamlike image.

Bask in the beauty of the Tung Bua Tong fields.


It took quite a climb to reach the sign. ^^


The entire mountain is ablaze with yellow.

Exquisitely captivating.

Who blooms more beautifully, your face or the dok bua tong? ^^

Coffee shop near the mountain. We just took photos, my friend bought something. 55555

Waking up at 4 am to see the sea of fog was worth it. Even though my legs were about to give out from the climb, I can say that it was worth every step.

It was truly worth the effort.
