Impkenai Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I had visited Chiangmai and the North quite a few times. This time I am planning to stay a few days in Pai, specifically at the Bueng Pai Farm. I suppose I could get the Farm to pick me up in Pai once I make my way there. Any advice on transport from Chiangmai to Pai would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkles Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 We always go on the mini bus (not van) about a 20 seater .Leaves Chiang Mai Bus Arcade (towards the back). departures about every hour from memory from about 8am. Cost 150 baht one way, 3 hour trip ,with a half way stop ....excellent value,careful drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackr Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Rent a 125 plastic pig, head up the Mae Rim/Chiang Dao road (north) for 45k and turn left before Mae Taeng. Bueng Pai (Ran & Orn, previously owners of Sun Hut) are a few clicks past their old place - you'll need to go through Pai (right at the lights), or turn right before Pai Canyon, past hot springs and go the back way avoiding town. If you've never done it before, it'll be a real buzz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luther Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 fly i'm not kidding at least one way it's cheap and about triple the height of a hot air balloon and when you land the 14 year old chubby kid drives the fire truck out to meet the plane.
