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!

First, let me say a big thanks to the Klook staff. For some strange reasons, I did not receive the vehicle number and meeting time confirmation. Feeling dejected, I texted Klook and received a quick reply. The staff was kind and managed to resolve the issue even though I liaised after 9pm. If not for this Klook staff, we might have missed this class. We did a pit stop to the market & met our jovial chef who went through the cooking items that we wil be used later.😀. My chosen menu: Tom Yum Goong, Pad Thai, Khao Soi and Thai milk tea. Each of us cooked our own dish! All the ingredients are very fresh everything was clean and organised. This class also allowed us to meet some lovely cooking mates. :) The chef was patient, friendly and always kept a lookout. If i had to really nitpick, we didnt have enough time to take pictures of the beautiful garden! We thoroughly enjoyed this activity and i will highly encourage you to try it too!

Although the temples are really far away from Chiang Mai (3.5hrs/single way), they are worth-visiting. The itinerary was fine, yet the time left for White temple/ Black House were too short to visit the whole as they are too big. The tour guide Apple was really nice. Still recommend!

Nui and our driver Mr James were exceptional. I booked this tour the day before with my partner, we got a shared tour with another couple and one solo traveller. They picked us up across from Thapae gate. We drove about an hour before a brief rest stop, then onto a beautiful waterfall. The amount of mist and spray coming off was incredible but quite slippery so make sure you wear proper shoes. From there Nui and James took us to a Karen village for Tea and Coffee, which was very tasty. A brief moment to shop some souvenirs if you wished but nothing felt forced at all. We then had a nice lunch before continuing onto the summit. The cloud jungle is breathtaking, moss all over the trees and birds off in the bushes. Traveling back down we arrived at the twin pagodas. Nui provided some very insightful commentary into the Buddhist imagery. The views from here down into the valley below is one of the best landscapes I’ve ever seen. Thankyou to Nui and James for being insightful and funny.

I joined Numnim’s half-day tour alone, and it was such a lovely experience! 🥰 I originally booked the morning session but couldn’t make it because I overslept 😂 Luckily, Numnim kindly contacted the tour company and helped me switch to the afternoon session on the same day. I really appreciated her kindness and help! Just a little tip: this might depend on availability, especially during peak season. 😉 Even though it wasn’t peak season, there were still around 10 people in our group. Since I was traveling solo, Numnim also kindly took photos of me throughout the trip, which made the experience even more special. ❤️ And don’t worry about choosing the afternoon session! I never imagined the views could be so beautiful in the evening, too. The scenery had a different kind of beauty that I absolutely loved. 🌿✨ Thank you, Numnim and the driver , for being so kind and making my solo trip such a memorable one. Highly recommended! 💕

Four coaches for nine participants is quite good. Jacky, who I met this time, was enthusiastic and made sure I had a great time even though I was traveling alone. Before you depart, you can pay their accompanying photographer $300 per person, and at the end, they'll give you some photos and videos. You can also tell the photographer along the way if you'd like to take pictures.

Very good, and the price is also very affordable. When you arrive, they first give you a cup of herbal tea, then the massage goes from your back to your legs, then to the front, and finally to your head. The massage therapist's skills are excellent. I highly recommend Kate (I think that's her name). Highly recommended, absolutely flawless.

What to know before visiting Chiang Mai Province

Things to Do in Chiang Mai

Night Bazaar

You can explore the Chiang Mai Night Bazaar for handmade goods, snacks, and easy evening walks. Many travelers come here for street food, small shops, and a relaxed night out. It’s one of the most visited attractions in Chiang Mai.

Wat Phra That Doi Suthep

You can ride up the mountain to visit Wat Phra That Doi Suthep by songthaew (red truck) or taxi from the city center. The temple is known for its views over central Chiang Mai. You can also climb the long staircase if you prefer, with detailed steps and gold details along the way.

Wat Phra Singh

Walk through Wat Phra Singh to see its halls and quiet corners. It's one of the most respected temples in Northern Thailand.

Wat Chedi Luang

Visit Wat Chedi Luang to see its large ancient structure in the middle of the city. The grounds are open for walking, and monk chat programs sometimes take place here.

Living Green Elephant Sanctuary

You can spend a peaceful half day learning about rescued elephants at the Living Green Elephant Sanctuary. You can feed them, walk with guides, and enjoy a slow, thoughtful visit.

Get your Living Green Elephant Sanctuary tickets through Klook ahead of time to make your trip easy!

Wua Lai Road

Enjoy food stalls, crafts, and music along Wua Lai Road on Saturday nights. You can try dishes like pad thai, northern Thai sausage, or vegetarian khao soi.

Tips before visiting Chiang Mai

1. Plan for the weather

Chiang Mai can be warm during the day, especially in March and April. Bring light clothes, drink water, and rest indoors if the sun feels strong. (Klook tip: You can walk into coffee shops or food courts to cool off.)

2. Visit temples with proper clothing

In most temples, you'll be asked to cover your shoulders and knees. Make sure to bring a light scarf or long shorts that work well. This will help you feel comfortable during longer walks.

3. Try local food with an open mind

Street markets offer dishes like khao soi, sticky rice, and northern Thai sausage. You can try small portions first if you’re unsure. Fresh produce and all the tropical fruits are also easy to find at local markets.

4. Learn simple transport options

Red trucks, taxis, and app-based rides like Grab will make moving around easy. Chiang Mai International Airport is close to the city, so transfers are quick. You can also rent a bike if you want to explore central Chiang Mai at your own pace.

5. Bring cash for markets

Many food stalls and small vendors prefer Thai baht rather than cards. Make sure to keep small bills for snacks, drinks, and simple gifts. This will make your visit to night markets and street markets smoother.
