In Chang Mai, if you have wheels, there is a ton of stuff to see. You gotta get out of town to see much except the night market or a few Temples. I'm not a big hot springs fan but I do know there is at least one -north of Chaing Mai towards Mae Hong Son. Close to a Lihu village called Pai Hot Springs. Near there also is Chiang Dao cave. Perhaps the scariest, but most unusual thing I have ever done was to take the exploration tour of this cave. Cost about 250 baht. This ancient Thai duffer brings you incredibly deep into the cave. He carries only this old kerosene lantern to light the way except for occasional electrically lighted walkways. I mean you go DEEP into this cave- squeezing thru tiny openings in the walls to get from one chamber to the next. Climbing and descending pretty steep slopes. All I could keep thinking was WTF I was going to do if this old geezer had a heart attack or dropped dead !! Very beautiful cave though. The old fart turned off the lantern once in a while to give you an idea what it was like without the light. I have never been anywhere so dark. It was so black I could almost feel it and you literally could not see your hand in front of your face. Tour lasted almost 2 hours.
I highly recommend it if your companion is adventurous.
