Traveler's Reviews |
The resort is nestled in a lush valley that time seem to have forgotten. Built with a traditional design but incorporating western comforts, the lodge is the ideal base for soft adventure and trekking in this mystical region, where the unique Lisu, Lahu and Aka hill tribes make their homes.
The tranquil resort exemplifies what sustainable and community-based tourism can be. The guestrooms surround a common area where meals are served and entertainment is provided in the form of traditional dance. Mornings begin with a symphony of birdsong, and evenings end to the gentle sound of chirping crickets.
Surrounded by banana trees and water buffaloes, the lodge offers a variety of activities including biking and visits to the vibrant local markets. For more excitement, whitewater rafting and elephant trekking are available, and a mid-afternoon massage is a wonderful way to end the day.
Standing quietly on Thailand's northern hills and managed by the celebrated Asian Oasis group, Lisu Lodge's justly deserves its fantastic reputation.
Acquaint yourself with the pristine north in our Lanna Shan Journey Thailand tour where you will breathe in all the historical and cultural aspects that give the area its charm. Witness ancient temples and learn about their history while exploring the majestic landscape by bamboo raft and elephant ride. You will also get a chance to interact with the local hill tribes who reside in this area.
The Real Lanna Experience from Exotissimo is a great Thailand tour for second time visitors who like to blend in sightseeing and knowledge with outdoor activities. You will learn from the local Tai Yuan people themselves about the region and learn to prepare some Thai dishes. We will also let you cruise down the Mae Ping River on a scorpion boat, ride an elephant, whitewater raft, and cycle through the beautiful Thai terrain and historical sites.
The Rachamankha is more a treasury of old Lanna culture than simply a hotel. Modeled after the chapel of one of Thailand's most beautiful temples, this single-storey inn is a neat assemblage of white plaster buildings capped by terracotta roofs.
