Excursão ao Chiang Mai Kerchor Elephant Eco Park (a partir de Chiang Mai)

I was very happy to participate in this tour. The day before departure, I called to confirm the car, and the service staff spoke English (but I'm not sure how to contact them if you don't have a Thai phone number). I recommend filling in your hotel as the pick-up location; it's very convenient if the driver can pick you up directly from there! It's truly great value for money! There's also a significant discount for three people traveling together! Playing with the elephants was really fun – there's a very pure feeling in nature. You can get up close and personal with the elephants 🐘😍, they're adorable! The bamboo rafting in the afternoon was also very relaxing! In short, I highly recommend this tour with excellent value for money!Group size: 8 peopleTour guide: Thai people who speak English, and there are also guides who speak Chinese.

Definitely one of the best experiences we could have had in Thailand. Their transport picked us up at the hotel, not at the reservation. They lend you the top shirt. Our guide Ef was very good at all times and explained everything very well. We walked with the elephants, fed them, and bathed them, all in a very respectful and ethical way. They are very well cared for! Without a doubt, it's an experience we recommend 100%.

除了接駁交通的車子比較老舊之外，整個行程都讓人非常滿意，雖然供應商在行前不會再次聯繫，但是司機準時到旅館接送，來的時間適逢午後大雨，但是還是非常享受非常開心，記得提醒遊客可以穿泳裝（因為會在河裡幫大象洗澡）或是短褲涼鞋，並務必攜帶雨具及換洗衣服！！然後就可以享受整個流程囉！pm1:00飯店一一接送，1：30出發約一個小時車程，2：30放置物品到行李櫃（有附瑣），講解-製作餵食大象食材，3：00餵食大象、拍照—與大象漫步—至樹林拍照—與大象玩泥巴—與大象在河裡洗澡拍照，4：15接駁至餐廳自助用膳（炒飯、炸雞塊、水果、湯品），5：00回程，6：00抵達古城依序接送回各自旅館。

Amazing experience! The elephants were clearly well cared for, and the staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about the animals. The guide was excellent, transportation was smooth, and the whole tour was well organized. I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Chiang Mai! 🐘

Geweldige ervaring waar goed voor de olifanten wordt gezorgd, gemakkelijk vervoer van en naar het park en de gids gaf een zeer grondige uitleg. Veel interactie van dichtbij met de olifanten en elke persoon krijgt een emmer om te voeren, en lunch aan de rivier. Een absolute aanrader!

Highly recommend this tour and especially Ef our tour guide— if you're lucky enough to get him as your guide, you're in for an unforgettable day! The sanctuary itself is ethical and well-run — no riding or mistreatment, just pure love and care for these gentle giants. Getting to feed, walk with, and bathe the elephants was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. You can really tell the animals are respected and happy here.

Itinerary: We will pick you up punctually at your hotel around 1 PM. The air-conditioned vehicle will take about 1 hour to reach the park. Upon arrival, you will be divided into two groups, one with a Chinese-speaking guide and one with an English-speaking guide. After sequentially placing your personal belongings into lockable lockers, you will change into traditional Karen blouses. First, the guide will explain elephant communication and demonstrate how to make herbal balls. Then, you can feed the elephants and interact with them for photos (you can ask the guide to help take group photos). Next, you will walk with the elephants through the jungle to the river, where you can help them with mud baths and washing. After finishing, you will return to the camp for a quick rinse and hot tea. Then, you will take the same vehicle to their café for snacks (fried rice, fried spring rolls, soup, and fruit). The café is located by the river and has a very relaxing atmosphere. Finally, you will be driven back to your Chiang Mai hotel. Guide: The entire activity was wonderful, the staff were very friendly, and the interaction with the elephants felt natural, without forcing them to do anything. Additionally, the park has a playful and adorable baby elephant named Ai Ai, who is less than three years old.

Highly recommend this tour. We really enjoyed spending time with the elephant. We would like to highlight the ecopark to those who like to travel to Chiang Mai as 50% of the payment will be used for the elephants' food and maintenance.

It was so much fun, a close-up experience! Feeding elephants, hugging and kissing them, playing in the mud with them, bathing them, and walking with them – everything was so enjoyable. We also saw a four-month-old baby elephant sticking close to its mother, playing and eating, which was incredibly cute. You couldn't even tell that one of the female elephants was six months pregnant; it turns out elephants are pregnant for two years... that's really tough. Overall, it was a very special experience, highly recommended!

It was a truly satisfying tour. Even though my hotel wasn't originally on the pickup list, they still picked me up, and everyone involved was kind. The elephants were so cute and lovely...!!! I was so happy, I felt like I wanted to live with them!! Interacting with the elephants was wonderful.
