点评:A truly amazing experience.
Opted for the full day tour, and SO glad we did. We were able to spend so much time with the elephants, nothing ever felt rushed.
You get to spend time with them, feed them, bathe them, even do a short walk with them.
Our guide, Tim, was the kindest, most informative guide! He brought such a good energy and was happy to answer all questions.
The photographer, Bay, was also an absolute legend and I would highly recommend getting the photograph packages at the end. It was 800 baht (this varies depending on your group size) for digital copies of about 300 pictures! Definitely worth it.
I could not recommend this tour more if I tried! You also get to relax at the end of the tour in a swimming pool, with the options for drinks too!
Also - spent a lot of time researching the various sanctuaries in Chiang Mai, and this one ticked all the boxes!
The way they operate is “elephant led”, let them do what they want and we will follow.
Foraging was a small part of the tour, you chop down 2 banana leaf trees each and then carry them to the van. (Nothing to be phased by at all!)
You also get given a change of clothes before you meet the elephants so don’t worry about getting mucky!

我选择了全日游,非常庆幸。我们和大象相处了很长时间,一点也不觉得匆忙。
你可以和它们待在一起,喂它们、给它们洗澡,甚至和它们一起散步。
我们的导游Tim是最友善、最博学的导游!他充满活力,乐于解答所有问题。
摄影师Bay也是一位传奇摄影师,我强烈推荐最后购买摄影套餐。800泰铢(具体价格取决于你的团队规模)可以拍下大约300张照片的数码拷贝!绝对物超所值。
我强烈推荐这个行程!行程结束后,你还可以在游泳池里放松身心,还可以享用饮品!
另外,我花了很多时间研究清迈的各个保护区,而这个保护区完全符合我的要求!他们的运作方式是“大象主导”,让它们做它们想做的事,我们也会跟着做。
觅食只是旅程的一小部分,你每人砍下两棵香蕉树,然后把它们抬到面包车上。(一点也不费劲!)
在与大象见面之前,还会提供换洗衣服,所以不用担心弄脏!
