About
On Khunlum Praphat Road in Chong Kham, Sawasdee Tour is one of Mae Hong Son’s long-running, no-fuss tour desks. Think hand-drawn maps on the wall, photos of misty lakes and tea hills in the window, and staff who cut straight to what you want to see and how to do it without blowing the budget.
They focus on wallet-friendly trekking and easy day trips around town: sunrise runs to Pang Ung and Ban Rak Thai, sunset at Wat Phra That Doi Kong Mu, bamboo bridges and temple hops, plus soft-adventure walks that suit most fitness levels. If you’re short on time, they’ll piece together a half day that still hits the good stuff; if you’ve got a spare couple of days, ask about adding a low-key overnight trek with local guides.
Drop by in the daytime to talk routes and weather, or message ahead to lock in an early start for those foggy-lake sunrises. The shop is a short stroll from the lake in Chong Kham, easy to combine with the morning market or an evening wander by the water. Last verified March 2026.
