Unforgettable Elephant Sanctuary Experience – T is the Best Guide Ever! Our visit to the elephant sanctuary was hands down the absolute highlight of our week-long trip to Thailand! A huge special thanks to our guide, T, who made this experience so extraordinary. T was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated throughout the entire activity. T took great care in explaining the background and unique personalities of each elephant, ensuring we interacted with them safely and respectfully. We are especially grateful to T for capturing so many fantastic photos and videos for us! Thanks to T's keen eye and patience, we walked away with priceless memories and moments captured on camera. T’s enthusiasm and attentive care truly made our day magical. This is a MUST-DO experience in Thailand, and we cannot recommend guide T highly enough!

I apologize for forgetting to ask the driver's name, but he was a young man. The vehicle was in great condition, his driving was very smooth, and he was very punctual. We were the only group of guests, so once we got in the car, we headed straight to Elfin Farm. We were also the first group to arrive, getting there around 9:30 AM before the elephants even started their day. However, the staff was wonderful; about 15 minutes later, they brought over a 5-year-old baby female elephant. We fed her bananas and sugarcane. Afterward, 5 or 6 elephants of various ages arrived one after another, each with their own name. Their business hours start at 10:00 AM, and it gets quite busy after that. I was so glad we were the first group to arrive, as it gave us the chance to take photos with the elephants in peace and enjoy the tranquility of the mountains. The landscaping throughout the park is fantastic, and it is a great place to enjoy a cup of coffee. On the way back, we stopped at a very local market—a truly authentic Thai traditional market. After buying some fruit, we asked the driver if he could drop us off at a mall, and he readily agreed. He didn't charge any extra, so we gave him a tip. The whole trip went very smoothly and the timing was just right. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to spend a morning seeing elephants and mountain views.

Nop was very knowledgeable and made sure our entire experience was comfortable and entertaining. We started with the elephant sanctuary and Nop knew SO much about elephants and their lifestyles. He also took us to Watchirathan falls, Twin Pagoda and Doi inthanon and the view throughout was surreal and Pon made sure he clicked pictures of us too. a must have experience in Chiang Mai. Since nobody else has booked along it was also kind of a private experience.

I had an awesome experience visiting Maerim Elephant Home despite the rain. The elephants are so adorable and the whole staff were very accommodating. We were briefed first of everything about the elephants and we were given delicious food as part of our tour package. This is truly a must-try experience if you're visiting Chiang Mai, Thailand.

🐘 "Everything moves slowly, but my heart feels warm." The most healing elephant accompaniment experience! I never thought I would have the opportunity to walk through the forest with elephants at such close range. This experience was truly magical and unforgettable! ✨ Elephant Dream Project is a park that is not overly commercialized and even retains a somewhat raw, natural atmosphere. Here, you can deeply feel the staff's careful and attentive care for the elephant herd. The elephants look immensely relaxed and leisurely. Watching them eat slowly and walk slowly... everything is so unhurried. "No disturbing, no bathing, no hugging." We simply quietly accompany, feed, and observe these gentle giants. This is truly the best and most respectful way to interact with them. I sincerely and highly recommend this to anyone looking to experience a different side of Chiang Mai! ❤️

I really enjoyed going to the elephant sanctuary. The tour guide, Chat, was really good. The refreshing rain was really nice to bathe in. The waterfall was truly beautiful. The rafting activity was really amazing. Everything is good and follows the time.

I went with my child, and it was a special experience. It was even better to listen to the guide's explanations, even briefly. The fan-making experience at the end was also very informative (there are more activities available, such as diaries and bookmarks). The natural scenery is so beautiful, and there is an eco-friendly playground, so I highly recommend it for travelers with children!

The group tour experience was absolutely wonderful! Special thanks to our guide Fluke. He is patient, thoughtful and has a great attitude the whole trip. The schedule was well-organized, he took good care of every member and was very considerate. What’s more, he took photos for each one of us during the trip and sent all the pictures to us afterwards. It was such a thoughtful gesture. Highly recommend traveling with him!
