Amazing experience, watching and feeding the elephants, followed by a hike to the village. Our guide was funny and helpful - the hike was very full on, but enjoyable considering all the sights along the way.

Amazing 2-day trip in Chiang Mai! We visited an elephant sanctuary, hiked to a rice field where we slept, and our guide Note cooked a delicious local meal for us. Next day we went bamboo rafting. Our guide, Note was super funny, knowledgeable, and showed us so many cool things. Highly recommend!

Walk in the Forest With Gentle Giants & Playful Babies We booked the private half-day elephant tour — just the two of us, three elephants, two baby elephants, Taksin, and the mahouts. It was magical. We enjoyed a fantastic walk through the forest in Chiang Mai. The elephants were peaceful and relaxed (they had already eaten from the previous visitors, so they were calm), while the baby elephants were playful and full of energy. Spending time with them in such a natural setting was unforgettable. Taksin was very helpful and answered all our questions with patience and knowledge. This was the best elephant sanctuary experience we’ve ever had — ethical, authentic, and truly special. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an intimate, non-rushed elephant encounter in Chiang Mai.
