Coconuts Tours and Bar

4.9(136 reviews)

Coconuts Tours and Bar occupies a practical dual role on Jetyod Road in central Chiang Rai, operating as both a tour booking agency and a relaxed bar that stays open daily from 8am to 1am. The operation is particularly well regarded for its guided treks into the surrounding jungle and visits to local hill tribe villages, including overnight stays with Lahu communities. Guides receive consistent praise from visitors for their knowledge of the forest, local flora, and the villages they pass through, with the experience often described as feeling personal and attentive rather than generic.

Tours can be arranged for individuals or tailored as private multi-day itineraries, with some visitors opting for packages that include airport pickup and a combination of jungle trekking and cultural meals at local family homes. The bar side of the venue provides a convenient place to unwind after a full day in the field and serves as a natural meeting point for independent travellers looking to compare notes or find others to join group departures.

Practically speaking, booking at least the evening before is worthwhile, as last-minute arrangements are possible but early booking helps secure preferred guides and tour formats. Arriving in the morning gives the most time to discuss options with staff before heading out. The venue is open every day of the week, so there is no need to plan around closing days.

Reviews from Google

Coconut tours really deserve the high rating they have ! We booked the night before for the 1 day trek and honestly, it was such a good day with great people and an amazing guide - Bah ! A good tour guide makes the day so much better and rememberable, so leaving with core memories and bamboo souvenirs is more than we could ask for… Can’t recommend their tours enough ! P.S enjoy a drink at their bar at the end of day for some Happy Water !

I booked a tour on Agoda and was assigned to Coconuts Tours. I must say I was a bit worried before, but our tour guide, But, made everything perfect. He was the best guide that I have ever met. Having tons of knowledge about the jungle, being energetic, enthusiastic, humorous, he’s awesome! And he was putting a lot of effort into making the bamboo cups as our souvenirs. Thanks again, But, for giving me such an unforgettable memory!

We arranged a private two-day trip specially tailored for us On the first day we were picked up from the airport for a half-day trip in the jungle and lunch at a local family home On the second day temples, long-neck tribe, Queen's Gardens and transfer to Chiang Mai. The most special experience in Thailand. Highly recommended

Tips for Visiting Activities & Tours

Vet Elephant Sanctuaries

Only visit sanctuaries that prohibit riding, use no chains or bullhooks, and let elephants roam freely. Elephant Nature Park in Chiang Mai set the standard. If a place offers painting shows or circus tricks, walk away.

Book Popular Activities Online

Booking platforms like GetYourGuide give you instant confirmation and, on many activities, free cancellation — and you can read recent reviews before committing. Compare with local agencies for multi-day trips where negotiation might save more.

Do Outdoor Activities in the Morning

Heat and humidity peak from noon to 3 PM. Schedule jungle treks, cycling tours, and outdoor cooking classes for early morning. Water activities are more flexible since you're in and out of the sea.
