Chiang Mai Private Tour: Suan Meow Cat Garden, Khunnai Gallery, & Khao Mai Lanna Restaurant | Thailand

It is worth recommending everyone to participate in the trip. It is very good and the trip is comfortable.

The tour guide has a smile on his face, is kind and kind, and patiently answers questions. He is also able to explain local culture and objects in detail. The service is satisfactory. There are four of us in the group, but the tour guide also does his best to serve us.

At the beginning, a tour guide and driver picked up and dropped off at the hotel, which was very convenient. The tour guide will pick you up and drop off at each attraction. Can communicate in English. The Cat Garden is very beautiful, with a slope design. As soon as you enter the door, you can enjoy the entire garden from a height. Jungle tree house design, decorated with small rivers, and each tree has a cabin for cats to sleep. There are so many cats walking around and resting, some sleeping and some clinging to people. There is a big ring at the bottom where you can take off your shoes and sit in to play with the cat. There are cat teasing sticks in different places for playing with. There is also a room for cats to rest next to the ring, so keep quiet🤫 The restaurant we went to in the afternoon had a quiet environment. We chose to sit on a high platform outside facing the pond, and ate facing the pond with many fish and the stone wall waterfall. The itinerary originally included a Thai special dish, but if you want to eat other food, you can pay for it. Finally, we arrived at a coffee shop with several historical buildings nearby, walls and grass covered with vines, which made for a great photo opportunity. There is a big grassland and Qianqiu in the middle. The big tree next to Qianqiu keeps dropping fragrant petals. When the sun hits the big tree in the middle, the scenery is beautiful and you can relax.

The Cat Garden is about a 1-hour drive from the city. The driver arrived at the hotel to pick us up on time. The Cat Garden provides drinks and fruits as a treat. You can buy them if you like, but this was my last day in Chiang Mai, so I didn't buy any. There are a total of 55 cats in the park, all with their own names. They are in a natural environment, well taken care of, and the cats are very friendly. The place where we had lunch is also a scenic restaurant where we can take photos. The Oasis Cafe has a 120-year-old tree. It is very quiet, without even the sound of birds singing. It happened to be a sunny day in Chiang Mai in May, and it only rained in the evening. We were very lucky.

The store seems to take good care of the cats. The store said there are more than 80 cats. Although it is impossible to count them, many of them are loved by their relatives.

Only those who love cats will like the Cat Garden. It is an hour's journey away. The garden is very remote and small. There are 69 stray cats adopted there and there are no other tourists. You can sit and play with the cat for two hours. The next stop is a restaurant with a very nice environment. The limit is 100 baht per person. If you exceed the limit, you can top up the amount in cash. The meal is a bowl of curry noodles. The third stop is the cafe. Each person pays 100 baht in cash to order a drink. You can take photos in the garden and stay for one hour.

There is some distance between the points in the itinerary. For example, it takes about an hour to go from downtown Chiang Mai to the Cat Garden. My driver will try his best to chat and interact with us on the way, but lunch time will be delayed until 1:30 in the afternoon. The coffee shop time is also a little tighter in the later period, maybe you can adjust the time again. Overall, it is fun and suitable for those who want a relaxing atmosphere. The cats and relatives are cute, the lunch is delicious, and the cafe is also great. You can drink and walk in the park. PS. The driver may be shy or want to respect our freedom of travel. When the time is up, he will not take the initiative to remind us that it is time to leave. At first, he was a little at a loss, but then he knew that he had to go out to find him by himself XD
