What you get
About this experience
Leave Chiang Mai behind for a full-day escape into Mae Kampong’s cool, deep-green rainforest and quiet village trails. Walk with a local guide and gibbon caretaker along hidden jungle paths, learning about native plants and their traditional uses. Listen for wild gibbons calling across the valley and, if they’re close, catch a glimpse of them high in the canopy—sightings are likely but not guaranteed. Continue to a tucked-away waterfall, pause for coffee with panoramic views, then enjoy a simple local lunch with vegetarian or vegan options before heading back to the city by late afternoon. Trails are natural and uneven, so moderate fitness is recommended. Book your spot and follow the forest’s quiet rhythm.

What you'll see and do
Mae Kampong Village
Your journey starts in a secluded rainforest area guided by a local expert and a gibbon caretaker. As you walk deeper under the canopy, you’ll learn about native plants and herbs, and how the community uses them in everyday life. The forest holds surprises too, with a high chance of hearing wild gibbons calling across the hills and, if they stay nearby, spotting them moving through the treetops. From the jungle, follow peaceful village paths toward a tucked-away waterfall, stopping along the way to take in the shade, the streams, and the slow rhythm of Mae Kampong. A scenic coffee break with panoramic views lets you soak up the atmosphere before a simple local lunch in the village, with vegetarian and vegan options available. Expect natural, uneven trails that reward steady footing and moderate fitness. You return to Chiang Mai by late afternoon feeling refreshed, curious, and glad you went looking for something hidden.

Highly recommend
Absolutely amazing experience. The tour guides were amazing and extremely knowledgeable of the area. Even though it poured rain on us I would still do it 10/10 times. One of the best experiences I had in the Chiang Mai area.

A fun day away from the busy city
It was nice to slow down for a day. Walking through the forest and spending time around Mae Kampong felt completely different from the city. Even without seeing wildlife every minute, the peaceful surroundings made the trip worthwhile.

All-round amazing day
What an incredible day - our guide Nee was fantastic and very knowledgeable, we took many stops along the way to find out more about the local plants and ecology. The company definitely went above and beyond to make this a great experience, from helping to spot Gibbons to giving us all sticky rice as a snack! Fantastic value for money, amazing tour and company, would definitely recommend.

Why this scores 52
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Chiang Mai Mae Kam Pong Wild Gibbon Jungle Trek with Transfer: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Chiang Mai.
How much does Chiang Mai Mae Kam Pong Wild Gibbon Jungle Trek with Transfer cost?
+
Prices start at $2565 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Chiang Mai usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Chiang Mai Mae Kam Pong Wild Gibbon Jungle Trek with Transfer take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Chiang Mai is not rushed.
Is Chiang Mai Mae Kam Pong Wild Gibbon Jungle Trek with Transfer worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Chiang Mai, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Chiang Mai Mae Kam Pong Wild Gibbon Jungle Trek with Transfer?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Chiang Mai Mae Kam Pong Wild Gibbon Jungle Trek with Transfer suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Chiang Mai Mae Kam Pong Wild Gibbon Jungle Trek with Transfer?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Chiang Mai can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Chiang Mai and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Chiang Mai Mae Kam Pong Wild Gibbon Jungle Trek with Transfer start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Chiang Mai within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Chiang Mai?
+
On Outty we rank every Chiang Mai experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Half-Day Thai Cooking Class at Organic Farm in Chiang Mai, Full Day Thai Cooking at Farm (Chiang Mai), Thai and Akha Cooking Class in Chiang Mai. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Chiang Mai?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Chiang Mai?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
