Centrum na ochranu slonov New Elephant Home v Chiang Mai

It was such an amazing experience, as a solo traveller I felt safe and well taken care of! Satin was such a great guide who was highly knowledgable. Highly recommend for anyone who wishes to interact with these gentle giants. There was vegetarian food options available as well, which was helpful for Muslim travellers who require halal food ♥️

I joined the English tour and we ended up being a group of 20, split into 2 Vans. we were paired up with Paul and JT was the driver for our van. I received a text from Paul on the day of with the pick up schedule. Got picked up right from my hotel and dropped off again at the end of the experience. Paul was definitely working hard to make sure everyone in the group was included. Handsome Paul! was generous, knowledgeable and humble. Gave some good information about the elephants, the sanctuary, and some history about the people working at the sanctuary. We had the best spots to wait, got first dibs on the line for the raft, He was helpful with taking photos and sent them via WhatsApp. Lunch option was bland but edible, some of the things didn’t go together. We spent the most time at the sanctuary, but got to experience the bamboo raft and sticky water fall as well. I loved the elephants and Doggos there!! Overall the experience was an unforgettable one!

今天大象营体验感超棒！亲手切甘蔗、剥香蕉，制作大象专属营养餐，近距离投喂大象、相伴散步合影。昨夜河水涨水，没能带大象下河洗澡略有小遗憾。导游Ruang十分细心，讲解细致到位，还会主动帮忙拍照📷全程照顾周到。大象温顺放松，整体体验治愈难忘，非常推荐！ We had a fantastic day at the elephant camp. We cut sugar‑cane, peeled bananas and prepared vitamin meals for the elephants. We fed them, walked together and took photos. We could not bathe the elephants due to river flooding last night. Our guide Ruang was very thoughtful and gave great explanations throughout the trip. Highly recommended!

We really enjoyed this full‑day tour in Chiang Mai. Our guide Amy did an absolutely wonderful job throughout the whole trip. She is a young, friendly lady, very patient and thoughtful to everyone in our group. The elephant care experience was meaningful, we got to feed and bathe the elephants in a respectful way, no riding performances. The sticky waterfall (Bua Tong Waterfall) was stunning, climbing the mineral slope was such a fun unique experience.
 Amy gave us clear instructions for every activity. She always checked on us, reminded us about sun protection and staying safe, especially when we were at the waterfall and bamboo raft. Pick‑up from the hotel was on time, the whole schedule was well‑arranged without rushing. Overall it was a fantastic day trip. Highly recommend this tour, and big thanks to Amy for making our day so memorable!

我是前一天晚上才訂的 大概隔天早上7點就收到導遊Kim訊息 非常nice，她通中文、英文及泰文 所以溝通上完全沒問題 人很幽默，很會開玩笑 也非常細心、體貼 能夠被Kim服務到我們全家都很開心 喔對了，Kim超會拍照~~ 這很重要❤️ 這個行程不管是瀑布、長頸族或是大象 都是我們在泰國五天內最愛的一天🥰 / I booked this tour the night before, and by around 7:00 a.m. the next morning, our guide, Kim, had already sent me a message. Kim is incredibly friendly and speaks Chinese, English, and Thai, so communication was smooth and effortless throughout the entire trip. She has a great sense of humor, is always making us laugh, and is also very thoughtful and caring. Our whole family truly enjoyed spending the day with her, and we felt lucky to have her as our guide. Oh, and one more thing—Kim is AMAZING at taking photos! 📸❤️ Trust me, that's a huge bonus! Out of our five days in Thailand, this tour was by far our favorite. Whether it was the waterfall, the Long Neck Karen village, or the elephant experience, every part of the day was unforgettable. 🥰

我们导游paul非常棒！英文流利且标准，清楚讲解了注意事项，在黏黏瀑布我背着包不方便攀爬，主动帮我背了包包，每个景点都有帮我们每个人拍照，很敬业又负责，最后返程前还送了我们水果，这次带着儿子一起来，下次会带朋友再来玩，很好的行程！再表扬一下我们的司机kla，驾驶技术杠杠的，我们每次去车上拿东西他都非常耐心，每次玩回集合点还准备了冰镇的矿泉水！我们这次行程8个人，一辆车不会很拥挤！这里一定是来清迈最值得来的一趟行程！

We had an amazing experience today. The elephants are gentle and intelligent. We got to make food for the elephants and bathe them. Our guide San was very thoughtful and took good care of every member of the group. He also took really nice photos for us.

Sprievodca Dum sa o nás veľmi dobre staral, bol mimoriadne pozorný a trpezlivý. Každú atrakciu vysvetlil veľmi podrobne. Keď rozprával o slonoch, cítil som sa ako na univerzitnej prednáške – jeho výklad bol taký podrobný a živý, že som získal hlbšie pochopenie slonov a miestnej kultúry. Počas interakcie so slonmi nás sprievodca aktívne viedol k tomu, aby sme sa s nimi odfotili! Nikto neodišiel naprázdno, hahaha. Jedno dieťa v našej skupine si zrejme zranilo nohu a sprievodca si bez váhania okamžite vyzliekol šľapky, aby ich dal dieťaťu 😂😂😂. Bol naozaj veľmi ohľaduplný. Na záver naozaj odporúčam všetkým navštíviť Sticky Waterfalls. Časový harmonogram bol taký, že tam nebolo veľa ľudí, takže sme si to naplno užili. Chladná voda bola obzvlášť osviežujúca, ale zatvárajú o 16:30, takže si dobre naplánujte čas, ak si chcete užiť viac jázd. Celý výlet bol hladko zorganizovaný, starostlivosť bola vynikajúca a veľmi sme si to užili! Nabudúce, keď prídu priatelia do Chiang Mai, určite im odporučím tento výlet!

Tento jednodňový výlet v Chiang Mai vrelo odporúčam! Celý zážitok bol úžasný a musím pochváliť nášho sprievodcu, pána Poppyho! Poppy hovorí plynule a autenticky po čínsky, takže komunikácia bola bez akýchkoľvek prekážok. Je vtipný a zábavný, počas cesty neustále zdieľal informácie o miestnej kultúre a podrobne vysvetľoval mnoho zaujímavostí o slonoch. Je vidieť, že má úprimne rád zvieratá, a jeho výklad bol živý a srdečný. Slony boli krotké a hravé, a interakcia s nimi zblízka bola mimoriadne liečivá. Kŕmenie a prechádzky boli veľmi upokojujúce a výlet stál za to. Popoludňajšia návšteva lepiaceho vodopádu bola ešte väčším prekvapením. Jedinečný vápencový vodopád ponúkal veľa zábavy pri lezení a osvieženie vo vode bolo super relaxačné. Celý denný program bol dokonale naplánovaný, nebol uponáhľaný a tempo bolo primerané. Počas cesty nám aktívne pomáhal robiť krásne fotografie, bol ohľaduplný a spoľahlivý. Celkovo je pomer cena/výkon vynikajúci. Ak chcete v Chiang Mai zažiť sloní tábor a vodopád, dôrazne odporúčam Poppyho ako sprievodcu. Keď nabudúce prídem do Chiang Mai, určite ho opäť vyhľadám!
