2-Day Sukhothai and Sri Satchanalai Historical Tour
Private Tour from Chiang Mai | 2 Days / 1 Night

Step back in time to the birthplace of Thailand. Sukhothai was the first capital of the Kingdom of Siam in the 13th century, where the Thai language, art, and architecture were born. Exploring its majestic temples is like walking through the roots of Thai culture and identity.

Just about an hour away, Si Satchanalai served as a spiritual and cultural hub. Its tranquil, well-preserved ruins provide a quieter glimpse into Thailand’s golden era.

Both are UNESCO World Heritage Sites that tell the story of Thailand’s origins — a must-visit for history enthusiasts and cultural explorers.

Why Stay Overnight in Sukhothai?

Sukhothai is a 5-hour drive from Chiang Mai. Instead of rushing through in one day, staying overnight lets you:

  • Explore Sukhothai Historical Park during the late afternoon, when the light is magical and temperatures cooler.

  • Avoid walking under the intense midday sun.

  • Enjoy a peaceful evening strolling around the ancient town or relaxing at your hotel.

  • Wake refreshed to visit the serene Sri Satchanalai Historical Park the next day.
