ChangChill Elephant Sanctuary (Ethical) tours

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at the Chiang Mai Kerchor Elephant Eco Park! The entire tour was well-organized, educational, and truly memorable. Our guide, Rocky, made the day even more special—he was incredibly funny, knowledgeable, and engaging throughout the entire experience. Rocky shared fascinating facts about the elephants and the park’s conservation efforts, and his sense of humor kept everyone smiling. The interactions with the elephants were respectful and heartwarming, and it was clear that the animals are well cared for. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Chiang Mai, especially if you’re lucky enough to have Rocky as your guide!

Really really good tour especially the bamboo rafting in the river and great nature. So beautiful. However the pickup takes a bit longer time due to city traffic. otherwise everything is so perfect 竹筏丛林漂流很舒服 大自然真的很美。接送的过程稍微时间拖得很长。

The tour guide's humorous and engaging explanations helped me better understand the characteristics of Asian elephants. Highly recommend this must-do experience in Chiang Mai, a rare opportunity. You can choose whether or not to play with the elephants in the water (you will get completely wet), and during the subsequent bamboo rafting, your lower body will definitely get wet. For shoes, you can bring flip-flops and wear comfortable shoes that are easy to change into at any time, or you can just wear flip-flops the entire time, like I did. Solo traveler friendly! 08:00 pick me up - 8:20 pick up other group members, including those meeting at the gathering point, and depart, driving towards the mountains - 9:45 Play with elephants - 11:00 Make vitamin balls - 11:50 Lunch (chicken curry/appetizing cold vegetable salad/chicken nuggets/watermelon) - 12:30 Head to a small waterfall to play in the water - 13:30 Rafting, a fun experience, very chill and peaceful, experience the tranquility of the small town drifting on the river - Around 16:00 Return to the city. Unfortunately, the driver forgot to take me back to the hotel, so I had to get back on my own.

It was a perfect tour. Before meeting the elephants, we were given explanations about elephant language and food, and the staff was very interesting and fun to listen to. We walked with the elephants, took photos with the elephants holding us, kissed our cheeks, and hugged us, which was very satisfying. They let us wear oversized clothes to prevent our clothes from getting dirty. The elephants go into the river to bathe, but the fountain from the elephant's trunk may get your hair and pants wet. It's okay as long as you're far away. At the end, the photos we took with the elephants are sold in frames made from poop paper. I think it was about 600 yen. We were the only ones on the zip line, so we were able to enjoy it smoothly. The staff took my phone and took good photos and videos. At the end, they gave us water. We had some time left, so we went to the long-neck village right next to it, as they told us it was there. It felt like an ordinary small village with no name on the map. We were planning to go to the long-neck village of Karen the next day, so we thought about buying souvenirs here too, but we thought it would help supplement their food, so we took photos with them and bought souvenirs before going home. I was very satisfied, so I recommend it.

The tour is very organized! we were in a small number of tourist in a coach around 10 people all in all. So much fun very touristry place the market/ rail way station and the floating market as well., must do tour when in Bangkok.

This day trip was an amazing way to see some of Thailand’s most iconic islands in one day. The speedboat made the journey quick and comfortable, giving us more time to enjoy each stop rather than spending hours travelling. Maya Bay was absolutely stunning — the water is incredibly clear and the limestone cliffs are even more impressive in person. Although swimming is restricted to protect the reef, walking along the beach and taking photos was still a highlight. At Phi Phi, there was enough free time to explore, swim, and relax. The snorkeling spots were beautiful with plenty of marine life, and the water visibility was excellent. Monkey Beach was fun and unique — seeing the monkeys in their natural environment was memorable. The crew were friendly, organised, and informative, and everything ran smoothly from pickup to drop-off. Lunch and refreshments were well organised and added to the overall value.

Excellent service by the Once Phuket Yacht Company. The trip to Similan Islands was very well organized and managed by the guides. They were very helpful throughout the tour. The food was also nice, and plenty of refreshments were available throughout the day. The guides especially made efforts to make us see the turtles swimming inside the ocean. It was a very wonderful experience for all of us.
