Saker att göra i ChangChill Elephant Sanctuary (Ethical)

Bortsett från att transferfordonet var lite gammalt, var hela resan mycket tillfredsställande. Även om leverantören inte kontaktar dig igen före resan, hämtade chauffören oss punktligt vid hotellet. Det regnade kraftigt på eftermiddagen när vi kom, men vi njöt ändå mycket och hade väldigt roligt. Kom ihåg att påminna besökare att bära badkläder (eftersom ni kommer att bada elefanterna i floden) eller shorts och sandaler, och att absolut ta med regnkläder och ombyteskläder! Sedan kan ni njuta av hela upplevelsen! Kl. 13.00 hämtning från hotellen, 13.30 avresa, cirka en timmes bilresa. 14.30 läggs saker i skåp (lås medföljer), instruktioner – förberedelse av mat till elefanterna. 15.00 mata elefanterna, fotografering – promenad med elefanterna – fotografering i skogen – lerbad med elefanterna – bada elefanterna i floden och fotografering. 16.15 transfer till restaurangen för buffémiddag (stekt ris, friterade kycklingbitar, frukt, soppa). 17.00 återresa. 18.00 ankomst till Gamla stan för avlämning vid respektive hotell.

We had an absolutely amazing day! The ATV ride was so much fun, and the views along the way as we explored different locations were breathtaking. We then visited a beautiful waterfall before ending the day with a peaceful bamboo rafting experience, such a relaxing way to finish an adventurous day. I would honestly do this experience again and again! Our tour guides were incredibly friendly, helpful and welcoming, which made the entire experience even better. Absolutely one of the best experiences we’ve had! ❤️🌿🏔️

Den bästa resan jag hade i Chiang Mai. Till skillnad från andra platser var detta mindre turistigt. Vår guide, fröken M om jag inte misstar mig, var mycket vänlig och rolig. Hon hjälpte oss att ta bilder och hennes berättelser var väldigt roliga.

This was a very impactful experience. Initially, I misunderstood the itinerary, and our guide, Koh, patiently explained everything to me until I understood. Afterward, to ensure a better experience for the entire group, and fearing the heat, Koh moved the bamboo rafting to be the first activity of the morning. Then came the main event, the ATV activity. As a petite woman, I found it a bit challenging to handle the ATV. Guide Koh kept looking back to check on me. He was very professional and incredibly patient, offering me a lot of encouragement! I'm truly super grateful! Additionally, I met two wonderful New Zealand female friends on this trip, which made the entire ATV experience even better! I hope Koh and they can see my sincere thanks! Instructor: Koh Safety: Excellent Experience: Absolutely amazing

A fantastic experience! The three zipline guides were humorous and responsible, helping us take photos throughout and ensuring we had a great time! The three elephants were all adorable little girls with distinct personalities; feeding and bathing them was a joy. The bamboo rafting was also very fun, allowing us to enjoy the scenery in the beautiful jungle. We even got to experience it in the rain, which was a unique touch. The entire trip was relaxing and pleasant, with not too many people, making it very laid-back!

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.

First and foremost, I highly recommend this tour. At the beginning, during pickup, the guide couldn't find us due to an inaccurate accommodation address. Even though he searched for us for nearly an hour under the hot sun, he wasn't angry at all. Instead, he quickly rearranged the itinerary and had a driver pick us up. I'm truly grateful to him. The pickup vehicle was an air-conditioned 11-seater van, which was very comfortable. The elephant sanctuary isn't very large, but it has reasonably clean restrooms. It's worth noting that you can feel the genuine love the conservationists and guide have for the elephants. There are no commercial performances or rides, only interactive activities like feeding, showering, and making rice balls with the elephants. There's also plenty of time to interact and take photos with them. The guide is very knowledgeable about elephant ecology and will explain everything in detail, guiding us through our interactions with the elephants. For lunch, there was delicious Northern Thai curry noodles, fried rice, fruit, and more – that fried rice was truly amazing! The ziplining part was also a lot of fun. The instructors were professional and humorous, ensuring everyone's safety. They also took photos and videos for us during the activity. There are about ten different ziplines to try, with varying distances, heights, and types, so you won't get bored. It was genuinely enjoyable! Finally, I want to thank the guide again. He was truly dedicated, genuinely loves elephants, and was very friendly to the tourists. All in all, I highly recommend this tour!
