1. Pickup: In the morning, our guide Poppy added me on WeChat, provided the exact time, and we got on the bus smoothly. 2. Arrangement: It was very thoughtful to go rafting first, avoiding the strongest sun, then to the elephant interaction, and finally to the Sticky Waterfalls. 3. The guide was very professional: From the arrangements to the explanations, and taking photos for us throughout the trip, I highly recommend Mr. Poppy again. He was truly dedicated and professional! This trip was very enjoyable, thank you Poppy and the driver.

We had an amazing experience at New Elephant Home, and a huge thank you to our tour guide, Beautiful Amy, for making the day so special. Amy was funny, interactive, and made everyone feel comfortable from start to finish. She kept everything running smoothly and made the experience fun, relaxing, and unforgettable. We especially appreciated how she helped capture so many beautiful moments by taking photos throughout the day for everyone. She was also very informative, helpful, and always made sure everyone was enjoying themselves. You can truly feel the love and care this place has for the animals. It was heartwarming to see how happy and well cared for the elephants were. We highly recommend Beautiful Amy and New Elephant Home to anyone visiting Chiang Mai. This was truly a magical experience and one of the highlights of our trip! 🐘💚

Purchasing tickets was easy, and we had no issues upon arrival. The park was clean, and there were several baby elephants. Everyone had a wonderful time, and we'd love to come back if we get the chance.
