The Mae Ngat Dam tour itinerary is built around a one night stay at Mountain Float – a floating hotel on the dam. The two day program is book-ended by guided sightseeing & activities in the northern districts of Chiang Mai.
Mountain float is built around a common area (floating restaurant), and your accommodation is a self-contained houseboat connected by floating walkways. The following room options are available:
- Sunday Houseboat: 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms
- Sunshine Houseboat: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms
- Cocoon Houseboat: 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms
- Pana Houseboat: 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms
All houseboats have a dinning lobby/terrace and mooring for kayaks.
The bedding configuration is a mixture of double and single beds, and additional beds can be added to accommodate larger groups.

For couples, the Cocoon Houseboat is designed so individual bedrooms can be rented during low season.
