This tour far exceeded our expectations! Amy was an amazing guide, and she made our day so much fun!
We had an incredible elephant tour in Chiang Mai, made even better by Nop. He was an excellent, knowledgeable guide and kept everyone laughing throughout the day. Highly recommended—see you next time!
Suriya, our tour guide, was amazing, he took really good care of us. The food was algo really good. Remember to bring a raincoat if you are coming in wet season!
This day completely exceeded my expectations. Everything was just perfect. The places were beautiful and the best was our guide, Mr. Ronnie. He was very kind with us, cheerful and considerate. I am very thankful with you 🙏🏽
We had an amazing time at the Elephant Sanctuary. Paul (Pornchai) our guide was informative and we learned a lot about how the elephants were cared for. Our tour also visited Doi Inthanon National Park. We had enough time at each place and it did not feel rushed at all. Highly recommend this tour. It’s one of our highlights this trip. Dress warm for the National Park as it gets quite cool. It was pouring rain when we went. Bring an umbrella and rain jackets. Bring sandals or crocs for the Elephant Sanctuary and a change of clothes for after the river bath with elephants. We had time to change
Really enjoyed the day, Paul was an amazing tour guide and really made the day a special experience. The weather was not great in Doi inthanon but still made the most of it!
We can definitely recommend this Tour. Our Guide was Paul and he made the tour perfect. On the way to the National Park we learnt a lot about the history of Chiang Mai and the elephants and their history in the country. The highlight of the tour was to meet the elephants, feed them and bathing together. All of the trainers there were really nice and respectful with the animals. Also the visit at the other stations, like the Royal Twin Pagodas, were really interesting and we had enough time to see all of it.
Our guide Amy was amazing and very knowledgeable. She always explained history/information before our free time which I really appreciated. We got to get close and feed the elephants and they all looked happy and well cared for. The national park and twin stupas were also beautiful. I would do this activity again in a heartbeat.
We had a pleasant Trip with our guide Nop. He was very kind and made our trip memorable. The elephants were very cute. We would definitely recommend him!
We had a very great time in this tour. Our tour guide Paul has been fantastic and took very good care of our group. He explained a lot of details regarding the elephants and the history of the places we visited. He also took many great pictures of everyone. Overall, we very much enjoyed that tour and would be happy to recommend this to anyone else!
My family and I had a wonderful day with the elephants and visiting the national parks. A big thank you to the fantastic guides for making this trip amazing and memorable. A must do!
This was so much fun! The elephants were a real treat. We were the first group to visit so they were super excited for food! We spent a wonderful time with them, we got to play with them in the water. I think the only suggestion I have was to be more clear about being dressed for the swimming with the elephants. i had my swimsuit in my bag. But there was no time to change. Luckily I brought spare dry clothes so I could just swim in the clothes I was already wearing. Next we went to the mountain which was cold and wet - maybe also suggest people bring warm jacket/poncho in case as it was quite
