Easy to find, large stadium. Online ticket booth separate from regular one; should be sign posted but keep in mind. Easy to enter, drinks cheap. Fights themselves were great. The headliners were the most experienced and fought well. Organisation was good and everyone came in and out orderly and without pushing.

Highly recommended, far exceeded expectations, perfect for booking a tour as soon as you arrive in Chiang Mai! Our guide, Kat, was very witty and humorous, excellent at finding hidden culinary gems, and made exploring the streets and alleys a wonderful experience.

I highly recommend this park and this tour. Although the journey there takes over an hour, it's truly worth it. You get to watch the elephants eat, feed them, and there's no pressure for them to bathe or have mud baths. You just walk around with the elephants, and they just keep eating and eating. Anyone who loves elephants will find it incredibly therapeutic. The driver, guide, and park staff were all very friendly.

By a twist of fate, I accidentally rebooked at another branch, Makkha Health & Spa Chiang Mai (Ancient House). The service was excellent. My masseuse, Nice (number 3), had fantastic massage skills and made me feel very comfortable. I will definitely visit again. Masseuse: Nice, excellent technique.

Very polite, with excellent technique, and a convenient location. Before the massage, they also ask if you have any specific areas you'd like them to focus on.

Unforgettable experience at Elephant Jungle Sanctuary! 😊 Got up close and personal with these gentle giants - feeding, petting, and even watching them splash around in the mud bath was pure magic. The mini activities and free drinks were the cherry on top. Super ethical and responsible sanctuary, felt great supporting their cause. If you're an animal lover or just want a unique experience, this is a must-do in Chiang Mai!

Went on saturday. Was almost sold out and saw some great fights (14)with good energy and a few knock-outs. Was pretty close to ring without having ringside seats. Great evening out when in Chang Mai for that price!
