A unique experience close to elephants, magical and respectful! - An incredible and unforgettable experience! 🐘😍 We booked another trip on GetYourGuide, but after hearing about Chiang Mai Elephant Home, we changed our plans, and it was the best decision! (Cheaper, and much more intimate) The experience was intimate, the elephants are happy and very well treated, which was essential for us. 🐘❤️ We had the chance to feed them, give them a standing bath and even swim with them, a magical and unforgettable moment. Many thanks to our guide, Te, for his welcome, his exciting explanations and the beautiful photos he took of us with elephants. He knows these animals perfectly and his connection with them is incredible! His English is excellent and he knows how to take the time to explain and accompany us throughout the excursion ❤️ Thank You and the lady of the reception also I recommend 1000%! 🙌💯 English: An incredible and unforgettable experience! 🐘😍 We had originally booked another excursion on GetYourGuide, but after hearing about Chiang Mai Elephant Home, we changed our plans—and it was the best decision we could have made!

One of the best day excursions! - This was a fantastic experience! We were picked up at our hotel and driven into the mountains where we hiked to the waterfall. We then returned and had a great lunch and then so much time with the elephants including rubbing them with mud and going in the river with them. Finally we end with a raft ride down the river. Just a perfect day. Special thanks to our guide Te! He was the best and shared so much knowledge.

Fantastic experience - Fantastic experience, the difference is made by the guide, our su calls you who speaks good English. They guaranteed the tour even though there was only our family (3 people including 2 paying). Definitely because we did the morning tour with pick up from the hotel at 7 am
