Northern Thailand · GRAND CANYON CHIANG MAI
Here are the 8 best grand canyon chiang mai tickets you can book this season, each with what it costs, how many hours it takes and the sort of traveller it fits. Number one leads the list for a reason.
Spend a day on a natural lagoon in Chiang Mai Province, tackling a giant floating obstacle course, slides, kayaks, SUP boards and a 400-meter double zipline. Your ticket includes one zipline round and a life jacket. Wakeboarding costs extra, and transport is not included, so plan your return before you go.
“So much fun!! If you see a black and yellow digital camera in the lake please reach out to me! I’ll pay”
Spend five hours at Grand Canyon Water Park, the largest outdoor water park in northern Thailand. Try the Giant Slider, floating zipline, kayaking and jump zones, or take a break in the water. Choose park entry alone or add round-trip hotel transfers within Chiang Mai city. Life jackets and safety equipment are provided.
“A great refreshing break for the family! We took our own transportation there which was easy via Grab. We would pay exponentially more for a day like this in North America, the prices were reasonable, the facilities were super clean and the food was great. Many attentive lifeguards all around and so many fun things to do. You can stay all day and not get bored. Great time!”
