Arriving alone and wanting a group for the evening
Not for you if
You already have people to go out with, or you want to choose the bars yourself
Four venues over about five and a half hours, with a host running the evening and a group of travellers doing it together. GetYourGuide lists beer, shots and VIP entry as part of it, under the offer's terms, so some of what you drink is covered; what else is and is not included is set out on the booking page rather than here, because we have not verified it ourselves.
The reason to book it is the group. Arriving somewhere alone and wanting company for a night is an ordinary problem and this solves it directly: someone else has picked the route, handled the door, and put you with people in the same position. That is worth €15 to a lot of travellers and worth nothing at all to anyone who already has plans.
Read the rest
What we would not claim is that this is how you discover the best bars in Chiang Mai. A crawl goes where a crawl can take twenty people at once, which is a different list from the one you would build yourself over a week. Book it for the company, and find your own bar on a night you are not in a group.

Why this one

02
Some drinks are included
Beer and shots are listed as part of the booking, under the offer's terms. What else you drink is yours to pay for.
03
Four venues, one evening
Four stops over about five and a half hours, with entry handled at the door rather than queued for.
04
Free cancellation
Free cancellation applies to this booking, with the terms shown before you pay. Useful on a plan that depends on how the day went.

Is this the best way to discover Chiang Mai's bars?
No, and we would not put it that way. A crawl goes where a group of twenty can go at short notice, which is a useful list for an evening and not the same as the bars you would find on your own. Book it for the group; find your own bar another night.
Who is it actually for?
Solo travellers, and anyone whose first night in a new city would otherwise be spent alone. It is a way of being handed a group, a route and someone running the evening. If you are already travelling with people you want to drink with, it adds very little.
Are drinks included?
Partly. Beer and shots are listed as included, under the offer's terms, so some of what you drink is covered. Anything past that you buy yourself, and the booking page is the place that spells out exactly where the line falls.
How long is it, and how do I get home?
About five and a half hours across four venues. Getting home at the end is your own arrangement; a Grab across Chiang Mai is short and cheap at any hour.
