Chiang Mai Province Wildlife

This was such a wonderful experience at the elephant sanctuary! Our tour guide, Mr. Handsome, was amazing-knowledgeable, friendly, and super helpful with photography (haha). The elephants seemed to live happily and stress-free with their caretakers. I really enjoy the feeding part - including preparing foods and bathing for them. Highly recommended!

The elephant tour is absolutely worth it. The elephants are clearly well cared for, and you can see the respect and love the locals have for them. If you want to directly support the families who own and care for these elephants, booking your tour here truly makes a difference. Your money goes straight toward helping this community and sustaining this meaningful project.

We enjoyed this tour. Vicky spoke English really well and the driver was a polite young man. The elephants were well behaved. It was very interesting to see the personalities and dynamics amongst the elephants and with their minders. A baby elephant ran a couple of times towards his mum for a cuddle, while she was posing with guests for photos. The minder would run after the baby, telling him to return. Very funny to watch. Cafe was pleasant to sit down at and enjoy a drink. We paid extra for the yummy shrimp spring rolls and chicken nuggets. Our son tried durian for the first time at the fruit market. He thought the taste was “interesting”. 🤣

The stops at each temple were overwhelmingly stunning — truly breathtaking at every turn. The trip is a full 12-hour day, but absolutely worth every minute. Nuttaya was amazing: incredibly knowledgeable, and always looking out for us. Highly recommend this experience!

The experience was amazing. A truly ethical santuary. No touching, bathing, riding the elephants. Just feeding and observing. Note that there is also a hike trail with the elephants so you must be ready with the right shoes. Also enjoyed doing the inhaler personal souvenir. :)

Safety: There are plenty of staff members in the park taking care of visitors. Location: It's super convenient to call a taxi to and from Cong Tucheng District (about 20 minutes)! Instructors: They provide explanations in English and are very dedicated. Experience: Very novel! Facilities: A bit basic, but that's part of the original charm!

the staff the host the food was amazing the random puppy I found on site and how nice the elephants were even the one naughty one and feeding them was just me facing my fear I would definitely do it all over again with more confidence thank you guys I loved making the medicine balls too I didn’t know it was included so it was a pleasant surprise I love you all deeply thank you for the memory

Good and feeding experience. Guide was really great at explaining however during the elephant bath time the guide didn’t explain that there was a step under the water and I had a misfooting and almost submerge fully into the water.

Really recommended. The guide first explain about each elephants story and then you immediately are immersed in their habitat. You will be free to feed them and touch them, always respecting their boundaries.
