The Greater Chiang Mai Challenges (5-8 hrs.)
The Greater Chiang Mai Challenges (5-8 hrs.) follow the same basic format as the
‘City Challenge’ but by expanding the challenge area to include the area surrounding
the city we are able to provide a greater diversity of challenges and attractions.
They may therefore include things like: Muay Thai boxing, classical temple dance, rice
planting, ploughing the rice paddy using a buffalo instead of a tractor, learning a hill
tribe (ethnic minority) dance etc.
They are in effect an ideal day out – an interesting alternative to a conventional tour –
programme presented in a format that delivers the benefits of a team building
exercise.

to establish the right atmosphere for your event.
Ice breakers represent an excellent way to start a conference as they encourage everyone
to get to know and feel comfortable with each other creating an environment in which the
exchange of ideas, views and information will be easier, more relaxed and make your
conference more successful.
The challenges can be held indoors or outdoors and last between 1 hour and 2 hours,
varying in difficulty and objectives – but all are designed to ensure participants relax, enjoy
