My name is Niran, and I also have an English name, Tony, that it might be easier for you to call me. I organise all kind of nature and city tours in Chiang Rai. I was born in a small village in the southern of Chiang Rai city, as a son of a rice farmer family I learned from my parents. After the primary school, I entered the temple to become a novice monk to learn Buddhism and continually went to study in Bangkok. I was ordained to become a monk after the novice when I gained 20 years old and studied in the Buddhist university. During those times, besides my study at the university, I went to the famous temples (wat) to meet and practice English with tourists who came from all around the world. This made me love travelling, showing and share stories with people from the different culture and countries. When I returned to a Layman and went back to my hometown Chiang Rai, I have been a tour guide till the present. Chiang Rai is my hometown, located in the northern most province in Thailand which connects with Myanmar and Laos. The province is rich of history, nature and culture - from local Lanna people and multi-ethnic groups -who mainly live in the mountainous areas. There are nice places for sunset and sunrise, famous mountains that tribe people live and grow a world famous coffee and tea, some traditional villages where you could spend overnight, cook and eat like those uniquely local styles. I conduct nature and city tours, also trekking, cycling, sightseeing and some other kind of tours that you might personally request upon your time and interest.
