The BEST Sak Yant Experience!
Our Sak Yant experience with our guide Wao and Ajarn Tu Nametta was beyond incredible! Wao was the perfect guide and translator, making sure we were accommodated in every way possible and feeling like a part of our group. Ajarn Tu Nametta understood our hopes for the Yants as well as the energy we needed and the results are stunning. Would absolutely recommend!

Went on the sak yant Chiang Mai tour…
Went on the sak yant Chiang Mai tour with our tourguide Noi and it was a life changing experience!
From the moment we met our guide he was extremely helpful in all aspects and did a wonderful explaining what it we should expect and what things mean. He safe took us to our destination explaining everything each step of the way to ensure we have the best possible experience. The sak yant tattoo experience was perfect being that we were lucky to have caught Ajarn Rung when he was not busy so we could take our time with questions we had. Def looking forward to coming back soon and getting more done with Ajarn Rung. Thank you to WSE, Noi and Ajarn Rung for a once in a lifetime experience!

The Rise of Female Pulqueras & Mescaleras: Oaxaca’s Agave Traditions Reimagined
I love learning from ancestral wisdom traditions around the world, especially the vibrant lands of Oaxaca, Mexico.
The seemingly simple yet profound act of ‘turning water into wine’, or in this case, working with an agave plant to ferment pulque or distill mezcal, provides a window into a world that is rich with context, character, and connection.
As an added layer, I love bearing witness to women stepping into traditionally male dominated roles, like that of a Pulquera or Mescalera; women who choose to RISE & THRIVE in Oaxaca agave traditions, against all odds.
It reminds me that context is always changing and culture is never a fixed point.
Recently I had the opportunity to join a Oaxaca Artisanal Mezcal Experience with WSE Travel. Their ethos, ‘Where Sidewalks End’ takes willing explorers off the beaten path, while creating a positive impact on the communities and environment.
The relationships they bridge are real. Something I felt immediately.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review, Steph. We are honored you joined us in Oaxaca and that the experience reflected the resilience and ancestral knowledge of the women leading agave traditions today. Your words mean a lot, and we are grateful for the chance to share these connections with you.
Incredible Guides Showing You the Real Oaxaca
Oaxaca is so popular it can be really easy to slide into a tourist bubble and never really see anything truly authentic.
My tours with Where Sidewalk Ends changed all of that. With locals I was able to find the best things both in the city and outside, discovering really special places and amazing people.
I have taken many tours and so many guides are just worn out or phoning it in. But the guides on my tours were inspiring, honest, opinionated and happy to share. I learned a lot about Mexican culture and issues facing it today.

We would love to welcome you back anytime, whether in Oaxaca or beyond.
I wouldn’t change anything
I wouldn’t change anything. I feel honored to have the Sak Yants ajarn Rung bestowed upon me, and he was fast and his workmanship was impeccable. I love my guide Wao also, she made everything very comfortable and I liked our time together. Would do it again and also highly recommend.

Very pleased with my experience getting a sak yant. The whole morning was seamless thanks to Steven picking me up and making me feel comfortable from start to finish. He was so accommodating and wanted me to know he was there for me the whole time. As it was my first ever sak yant and tattoo in general, I was a bit nervous but Steven updated me every step of the way. Ajarn ya was also so kind and patient with me. Very happy I found WSE!!!

It was an incredible experience
It was an incredible experience. They picked us up from the hotel and took us to the location. We made offerings to Ajarn Oh, and he treated us wonderfully. He tattooed us in the traditional way, taking care of every hygienic detail and with incredible precision. My wife and I were delighted and will definitely return. If you have the chance, do it.

Please pass along our warmest wishes to your daughter as she carries this sacred ink into her next chapter. May it offer her strength, guidance, and all the protection she needs on the path ahead.

It was not as intense as expected from a spiritual point of view. Not a lot of interaction with the ajarn. I had the feeling it was more business than spiritual exchange. The price is too high for the experience I had, in my opinion.

Svar fra Where Sidewalks End
Thank you for your feedback, Giovanni.
We’re sorry the experience didn’t feel as meaningful to you as expected. As we shared in earlier communications, we aim to support each guest’s personal journey by offering detailed preparation — including our extensive Instagram discussions we shared, and detailed emails about how to reflect on intentions, engage with the Ajarn, and use your guide to ask the ajarn questions - especially if the ajarn doesn't ask you questions. That said, we understand that connection is subjective and may not resonate equally for everyone.
We also want to clarify that we never market Sak Yant as a “spiritual service” — we believe spirituality arises from within, not something that can be sold or pre-packaged. We can only open the door, but it's up to our guests and their mindset to find that spiritual connection.
As for pricing, it reflects the full scope of the experience: including a private, licensed guide trained in Sak Yant traditions, and the Ajarn’s independently set rate for their tattoos. Like any tattoo artist, pricing varies by style, reputation, and experience, and we honour those rates out of respect. While there are Ajarns with lower prices, this can sometimes compromise on quality or hygiene — areas we won’t cut corners on for our guests’ safety and satisfaction.
Thank you again for sharing your thoughts — we truly appreciate your perspective and hope your sak yant brings you the luck and enchantment you had hoped for. 🙏
A once in a life time experience
I’m so glad I did this experience. My guide Tobb was amazing. He was great company. He was very informative and he imparted a lot of knowledge about cultural traditions.
Ajarn Ya was amazing and with Tobbs help guided me through selecting the correct tattoo. The blessings and process was humbling

It was truly an honour to share this ancestral practice with you, and to help guide you through the process of receiving your Sak Yant. We hope it brings you the strength, protection, and enchantment you wished for as it continues to support your path ahead. Thank you again for allowing us to be part of your journey.

The WSE experience is Best In Class!
We engaged WSE on three occasions in Chiang Mai [Sak Yant, Local Tour, and Monk], and had three unique and amazingly fulfilling experiences!
Each of our guides were wonderful people; engaging, thoughtful and expert in their ability to translate and communicate cultural knowledge and understanding.
Incredible times were had, and enduring memories made!
Thanks WSE team! I'm sure we'll cross paths again soon...

I first traveled with Where Side Walks…
I first traveled with Where Side Walks End in Borneo, and it was such a unique experience that I had to join them again—this time in the Philippines. And once again, they absolutely delivered.
We took part in two experiences: a traditional healing session and the making of a local love potion. Both were fascinating, immersive, and honestly… a lot of fun. The guides were incredibly helpful, respectful of the traditions, and made sure everything was well-explained without ever feeling staged or touristy.
What I love most about this agency is that they take you far beyond the typical tour. It’s intimate, offbeat, and deeply cultural—just the kind of travel I look for.
If you’re curious, adventurous, or just want to experience something truly different, I’d highly recommend Where side Walks End. I’ve now explored with them in two countries, and I’d do it again in a heartbeat.

A Sacred Journey with Where Sidewalks End
Choosing Where Sidewalks End for my first Sak Yant was proved to be the right decision. Receiving a Sak Yant, a deeply sacred Thai tattoo, is not a spur-of-the-moment experience. It begins with a spark of curiosity, followed by thoughtful reflection and in-depth research.
I’m especially thankful to Ian for patiently guiding me through the learning process. In the end, it was Ajarn Ya who intuitively chose the most appropriate Sak Yant for me, based on the personal story I shared with him, a powerful reminder that these tattoos are not chosen, they are bestowed.
From the moment of booking to the pick-up, the ceremony itself, and the journey home, everything was seamless and respectful.
Thank you, WSE, for creating such a safe, meaningful, and unforgettable experience.
