An unforgettable day in the elephant reserve. - We spent an exceptional day at the elephant sanctuary about 50 km south of Chiang Mail. During a walk guided by ToTu we met young elephants successively of 1 year, 6 months and a week with the mother whom we fed by feeding her sugar cane stems. We bathed in a waterfall after lunch in a shelter. Then back on a van. Bravo and thank you to our ToTu Guide for his kindness.

Great day trip - We had a wonderful day with Ronny. Learnt lots about the temple we visited, including a blessing from a monk. The sticky waterfall was relatively easy to climb, with various points you could stop at. Need to be pretty able-bodied to climb the whole thing with steep sections. Ronny took us to a delicious spot for lunch, and took many great photos.

Amazing Elephant Experience - Did the day tour with my wife and 4 others. Was an amazing experience and totally worth every baht. Our tour guide Noi was excellent and taught us some history of Chiang Mai.

Chang Mai elephants, waterfalls and bamboo rafting - A day that we will remember.. Thanks to Noi and Issy ! Their kindness, explanations, energy and humour made this day like a dream. The van took us a 8:00/8:20 at our hôtel, and after about 1 hour later we arrived at the sanctuary, we’ve done the bamboo rafting (very nice experience ahah, during 20 min), then we saw the elephants, feed them a lot!!! The lunch was tasty and in front of a beautiful landscape (and the elephants 😉). We played with them in the mud, and rince them (and us) in the river. Wear flip flap and swimming suits. Our guides took plenty pictures of those moments, thanks again for everything. We recommend this tour ++

Fabulous day out - I had an amazing day out with Pon Elephants. Our tour guide Noi was kind and insightful. He shared insights into the lives of the elephants and the tour stood out for its ethical approach. This sanctuary is a must-visit destination in Thailand!

Perfect day - It was a perfect day! We fed the mom and the baby elephant. Then we fed 3 others and were able to take pictures with them. We were also able to go into the mud with them and into the water to clean them. Our Guide was Mr Noi, he was very kind. He told us about the history of elephants and interesting facts about Thailand. The dinner provided was excellent and good portion. Bamboo rafting and falling was also fun! We recommend this experience!!

Incredible experience - The entire tour was amazing and memorable. Out tour guide Yoong (said Mosquito is the meaning of the shorten version of her name and loves using it) was funny, very friendly, knowledgeable, explaining the history of the Monks, the Buddha, Buddhism, the history of Chiang Mai and its original people. Climbing the stairs to Wat Phra That Doi Suthep was not as difficult as I anticipated it would be. Buatong Waterfall-Chet Si Fountain National Park was absolutely beautiful. Mosquito was encouraging and thoughtful throughout our climb down and up the waterfall. You did not feel rushed. This is a tour we will take again with Yoong/ Mosquito and her driver. Yoong is a very valuable tour guide Allison and Jackie

Must do experience in Chiang Mai! - We had an unforgettable day exploring Chiang Mai with Noi, our exceptional tour guide. His profound knowledge of Thailand and Chiang Mai, combined with his enthusiastic responses to our countless questions, truly enriched our experience. Having served as a novice monk, Noi offered invaluable insights into Buddhism from a firsthand perspective. The tour featured highlights such as Doi Suthep, the Jade Factory (though I would personally recommend skipping this), and the captivating Sticky Waterfalls. Our visit to Chiang Mai would have been incomplete without this remarkable tour. Thank you, Noi!
