Transportation to and from the conference venue
The majority of hotels are clustered in the heart of the Nimman Area. Traveling from the airport to the Kantary Hills Hotel (the conference venue) would take around 15-20 minutes by car.
Participants are expected to arrange and cover their own international and/or domestic flight itinerary. There are no airport transfer provided. Participants must travel to and from the meeting venue on their own.
There are a few choices of transportation, such as the "red jeepney" (needs expert-level negotiation skills), Airport taxi (a less-stress choice for first-timers), and rideshare apps. The popular rideshare apps in Chiang Mai include Grab, Maxim, and Indrive. These services may require a working SIM card, which can be purchased at the airport or any 7-Eleven.
