I HAD SOOO MUCH FUN!!!! I LOVE HOW GENTLE THESE ELEPHANTS ARE! Guys, please support their sanctuary. Their baby elephant Nam Chok is so cute!!!!! Ofcourse, others too but Nam chok is really irresistable and very charming!!! All their elephants are sweet and gentle. You can hug them-which I did! haha and they are loving it! I hope I can return and visit them again! Their staffs will guide you properly and can speak good english. God bless tee tee elephant home. 🥰
Five lovely elephants live here. Mom Mojoko and her daughter, son. Mom Ramjii and her daughter. Ramjii's daughter was born in 2024, so she's still a baby. She still acts out a lot, so I asked her not to get close. She's cute when she follows her mom around, and her nose isn't long enough yet, so she spills a lot when she eats food with her nose, which makes her even cuter. I signed up for a full-day tour, and the tour structure was similar in that they make medicine balm and give her a walk and bathe her, but I was able to spend more time with the elephants by watching them more leisurely and going for a walk together twice. Guide PK's vehicle was clean, and I could feel his kindness and love for the elephants. * Those who actively want to bathe her, please bring your own underwear. You can just shower and change. (They give you Lanna-style clothes as soon as you get to the farm. You don't have to bring outerwear.) * You can stop by 7-Eleven right before going to the farm, and you can buy drinks to go with your lunch (Pad Thai) in advance. I recommend it. Still the elephants who are growing up💕🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘
I am so glad that I signed up for the opportunity to visit Tee Tee Elephant Home! As most reviews have stated, the elephants look so well taken care of and free. The owner was very kind and passionate towards the elephants and you could tell by his explanations and mannerisms. In the morning, the elephants get to roam around the space opposite the river freely, and they come back later in the morning for more food. We signed up for the half day tour the evening before and got confirmation a few hours later. We fed them bananas and made nutrition vitamin balls. We also crossed the nice cool river with the elephants and watch them roam around and splash in the water freely! Bring a change of clothes (a small towel is provided to clean up afterwards). Highly highly recommended 👍🏽
I booked a very last minute trip to the Elephant Sanctuary and it turned out to be the same one I visited in April, but it got an upgrade. I saw baby Namchok and he is the CUTEST! this experience is so worth it as spending time with elephants this close is rare, and I see why they are called gentle giants. I recommend bringing a extra pair of undergarments as you will get wet. My family and I had the best time ever with the amazing guide and driver who picked us up. The pad thai they give you at the end is DELICIOUS! I absolutely loved everything about it and I hope you can experience this for yourself too.
So worth it! It was the first time that I had such close contact with elephants, feeding them, walking together, watching them play, giving them baths, and making food for them to eat... It was very interesting and meaningful. The staff were very polite. After arriving, we changed our clothes first... then fed the elephants bananas, and then taught us how to make food before feeding them. If you need to walk across the river after feeding, the staff will help carry the children. This process was also the most thrilling. I can’t swim so I was worried because the current was very fast. But in the end I passed it successfully both times, so I felt that it challenged myself. When you get to the other side of the river, you can walk with the elephants and watch them play... It's magical because they are really right next to you... After all the activities, you can simply take a shower. The staff will prepare food and everyone can eat together. It feels very warm. . One thing to mention is that taking a shower is very simple, but you need to bring your own shower supplies and straps, otherwise it will be difficult to separate wet and dry with one hand... Overall, I am really happy to participate in this event.
We had an amazing half day here would highly recommend! I have done other elephant sanctuaries in Thailand however this is definitely the one I would recommend people to come to! we got to feed them, make vitamin balls, take them out in the jungle for their exercise and bath with them I. the river.
We had an amazing experience with the elephants! It's clear that this place is ethical and truly cares for the animals. The elephants are never forced into any activities and are allowed to roam freely around the area. They don’t practice elephant rides, which is great, especially since most of the elephants here are rescued. The volunteers did a great job explaining the do's and don'ts to ensure we interacted with the animals safely and respectfully. They also provided helpful tips to avoid triggering the elephants. The Pad Thai served at lunch was absolutely delicious. PK, our tour guide, was fantastic—constantly checking in with us while we interacted with the elephants and offering tips on how to play with them. This experience was both fun and educational. We are also grateful for meeting Linda and Phim who's very passionate in giving back by volunteering in taking care of the elephants.
A great park, very friendly to the elephants, and Open International volunteers participate in the care of the elephants, and do not force the elephants to perform behaviors that please tourists. You can feel that the mahout cares for his precious elephants, which is very touching. The tour guide PK is also very responsible in explaining in English. My favorite jungle walk, thank you Tee Tee Elephant Home.
Awesome experience! It is recommended that you must come to the Elephant Conservation Park when you come to Chiang Mai. Come and walk with the elephants in nature, feed them food, and enjoy a delicious lunch with the employees. Special cars can depart from the hotel to the park, saving you money on transportation. Troubled. There is also a special explanation of the habits and names of each elephant. Spend a special and wonderful morning here. I really recommend it.
very nice experience, the tourist introduced the elephants so detailed, was quite fun feeding the elephants except very nervous when going down to the river~
