Εξεπλάγην ευχάριστα όταν ανακάλυψα ότι πρόκειται για έναν συνεταιρισμό που λειτουργεί κυρίως με στόχο τη διάσωση ελεφάντων που είναι ανεπιθύμητοι ή δεν μπορούν να φροντιστούν από τους ιδιοκτήτες τους. Οι ντόπιοι κάτοικοι της φυλής Karen επωφελούνται μέσω της απασχόλησης και των πωλήσεων ειδών σε τουρίστες. Οι αλληλεπιδράσεις με τους ελέφαντες δεν θα μπορούσαν να είναι καλύτερες, με ενθάρρυνση για τάισμα, μπάνιο και χάιδεμα. Οι οδηγοί μιλούν άριστα Αγγλικά και είναι πρόθυμοι να απαντήσουν σε ερωτήσεις και να μοιραστούν πληροφορίες. Έμεινα στο καταφύγιο της ζούγκλας μετά την πρώτη μου μέρα και βρήκα την ηρεμία και την ησυχία υπέροχες μετά τη φασαρία του Τσιάνγκ Μάι. Το επόμενο πρωί πέρασε με τους μαχούτ να ταΐζουν ελέφαντες και στη συνέχεια μια βόλτα μέσα στο καταφύγιο σε έναν γραφικό καταρράκτη πριν το μεσημεριανό γεύμα σε ένα καφέ στην άκρη του δρόμου. Ένας άλλος καταρράκτης και μετά πίσω σε ένα άλλο καταφύγιο για μια τελευταία αλληλεπίδραση με ελέφαντες πριν από μια διαδρομή με λεωφορείο πίσω στο Τσιάνγκ Μάι. Κάθε τουρίστας που συνάντησα τις δύο ημέρες ήταν ενθουσιώδης και απολάμβανε κάθε νέα εμπειρία.

Our guide, Dum, was incredibly thoughtful, meticulous, and patient. He explained every attraction in great detail. When he talked about elephants, it felt like being back in a university lecture – his explanations were so detailed and vivid, giving us a deeper understanding of elephants and local culture. During our interactions with the elephants, the guide proactively helped us take photos with them! He made sure no one left disappointed, haha. One of the children in our group seemed to have hurt their foot, and without a second thought, the guide immediately took off his own slippers to offer them to the child. 😂😂😂 He was truly so considerate. Finally, I highly recommend visiting the Sticky Waterfalls. The timing of our visit was perfect, so there weren't many people, and we had an absolute blast. The cool river water splashing down was incredibly refreshing. Just note that it closes at 4:30 PM, so plan your time well if you want to go multiple times. Overall, the itinerary was smooth, well-organized, and we were very well taken care of. We had a fantastic time! I will definitely recommend this tour to any friends visiting Chiang Mai in the future!

Σκεφτείτε το ως μεταφορά, όχι ως ξενάγηση. Ο οδηγός ήταν στην ώρα του, οδήγησε ομαλά και μας ενημέρωσε πότε να συναντηθούμε ξανά στο βαν. Μας άρεσε πολύ να επισκεφτούμε το Elephant Poo Paper Park (δεν μύριζε καθόλου χαχα) και ο Sticky Waterfall ήταν τόσο ωραίος! Ο καταρράκτης έκλεινε στις 4:30 όμως, οπότε μας πίεσαν οι φύλακες του πάρκου προς το τέλος. Συνολικά άξιζε τον κόπο για να μην ανησυχούμε για τη μεταφορά.

Our hotel was outside the Old Town area, but we booked this tour because it offered pickup over a wide range. We participated as a family of two adults and three children (ages 3, 8, and 11). We shared the ride with two other groups, but it was a smooth experience. The day before, we received a confirmation email letting us know which car would pick us up. The cooking portion was for two adults, and the children helped the adults cook or wandered around when they got bored, as there was a chicken coop and a large garden nearby. The children received a set meal that included drinks, a rice plate similar to fried rice, and a mango with sweet sticky rice plate. The two adult portions we cooked were quite substantial, and our family was full after sharing them with the children. Other group members also shared one adult portion between two people. The assistants received the same menu as our children, and the quantity seemed sufficient. We adults each wanted to cook our own dishes, so we requested that, but some people took turns cooking, which might be a good option for couples. The instructor was kind and very easy to understand, even showing consideration for our children. The venue was truly stress-free and allowed us to relax. The food was delicious, the environment was pleasant, and our family of five thoroughly enjoyed it.

I booked a Thai cooking class with Mamanoi, the Chinese morning session, which starts at 9 AM and ends at 1:30 PM. The total duration was about four and a half hours. You don't need to prepare anything special, but I recommend wearing light clothing as the venue only has fans and no air conditioning. For those who attract mosquitoes easily, remember to take mosquito repellent precautions. The main process is as follows: At 9 AM, the staff from Mama's Kitchen picked us up from the hotel. Around 9:30 AM, they took a group of people to the local market. There was a dedicated Chinese and English-speaking teacher who explained various common Thai vegetables and spices. They covered everything from pandan leaves to red and yellow curries, and from different types of basil leaves and their aromas to various levels of chili spiciness. After the explanation, the teacher gave us fifteen minutes of free time to explore the market. After visiting the market, the staff drove us to "Mama's Kitchen," where the Chinese and English classes were held separately. Teacher TAN first let us choose the main dishes we wanted to cook. I chose the combination of "Pad Krapow + Green Curry + Tom Yum Soup." You can choose three main dishes, which can be two main courses and one soup. Thai milk tea and mango sticky rice are mandatory desserts and do not need to be chosen. After the teacher recorded our selections, she took us on a tour of the farm. After our farm tour, the teacher went to prepare the ingredients for cooking. Once everyone had taken photos and returned to the classroom, the class officially began. First, we pounded the curry paste and various spices, then chopped the different ingredients. The preparation for each dish was done separately. After completing the preparation for one dish, the teacher gave everyone a small mesh cover to protect the prepared ingredients from flies. Once everything was ready, we started cooking. Cooking over an open flame is fast, but controlling the heat can be challenging. Throughout the process, everyone was like a robot; we didn't have to think at all, just followed the teacher's instructions to complete the three dishes. However, this process was quite hectic, and I couldn't take any photos myself. If you want to capture good photos, it's better to have a companion dedicated to taking pictures. After eating, the teacher guided us in making Thai milk tea and mango sticky rice. After the itinerary concluded, the teacher asked everyone for their desired drop-off locations. You could return to your hotel, or tell the teacher where you wanted to go, and the teacher would help arrange transportation to your destination. Overall, it was a pretty good experience.

Όλα είναι υπέροχα και υπάρχουν πολλά ζώα εκεί, ενώ υπάρχει μεγάλη ασφάλεια κατά τη διάρκεια της διαδρομής με το τραμ για να δείτε όλα τα ζώα. Αν κάνατε κράτηση μέσω της Klook, το εισιτήριο θα περιλαμβάνει όλα τα σόου: το σόου με τις τίγρεις, το σόου με τους καουμπόηδες και το σόου με τα άγρια ζώα.

I booked 120 mixed massage and it was to die for. I was relaxed and felt pampered all the way. the place is clean and has nice atmosphere. you fill out a form with all the information and are taken swiftly to feet washing and then your massage. after the massage you can enjoy your tea and rice cakes before you are ready to tackle your day fully relaxed

Αυτή τη φορά κλείσαμε ένα πακέτο 2 ωρών με απολέπιση και μασάζ με λάδι. Το σαλόνι ήταν πολύ ανατολίτικο και το τσάι που μας προσέφεραν κατά τη διάρκεια της συμβουλευτικής ήταν υπέροχο. Η θεραπεία ήταν προσεκτική και απαλή, και έμεινα πολύ ικανοποιημένη. Το δέρμα μου έγινε ενυδατωμένο και λείο, και το επιπλέον πρήξιμο υποχώρησε, κάτι που ήταν φανταστικό. Το τσάι και τα γλυκά που μας προσέφεραν μετά ήταν πολύ νόστιμα, και αγόρασα μερικά για το σπίτι. Αν και υπάρχουν πολλά σαλόνια στο Τσιάνγκ Μάι, χαίρομαι που επέλεξα αυτό.
