The MUST Do activity if you are only visiting Bangkok - We had the best day with Nan, having a private driver and tour guide was amazing, there was only 2 of us so it felt a little overkill now thinking about it but no one else was doing this tour from Bangkok and we didn’t want to have to travel. Nan was so informative and knowledgeable and a real sweet character, she got the most amazing photos of us through the day. I would definitely recommend this to anyone visiting Bangkok you get to see the REAL Thailand outside of the city. It’s a long day but if you want to see elephants I suggest you take this tour because travelling 3 hours just for Elephants it a long time and the history and railway really broke it up nicely

Top Tier - This trip was amazing and our tour guide Roon was top tier! We learned so much from her and the places we visited. We enjoyed the train and elephant experience. Must try. BTW prepare to get wet.

Experience of a lifetime - This was by far the very best excursion we've taken in Bangkok! Nan our guide and Nui our driver were FANTASTIC! They went out of their way to make our special day one that we would remember always. They even stopped to let us get coffee before heading out on the long drive to our first destination. Nan explained things along the way and was so eager to answer our questions. I would highly recommend taking this trip! From the beautiful temple to the Death Railway and Bridge over the River Kwai (via the 45 minute train ride) to feeding and bathing the elephants it is truly remarkable. Full of history, beautiful scenery and of course the ELEPHANTS! Soooooo much fun! Definitely worth the time and money. If you choose this excursion I hope you are lucky enough to get Nan and Nuri! They're the best!

Amazing day. - Loved feeding and scrubbing the elephants the best but the temple was also an experience with the views and the temple itself was stunning. A full packed day but was worth the experience if my 90 year old mother can do it so can you. 😉

Very fun excursion - The guide we had, Ake, had excellent treatment with us and left us with a very good feeling! I would repeat without a doubt. Plus, they drop you off and pick you up directly from your hotel, which makes it very convenient. The activities are very good and the guide knows a lot.

Elephant haven with death railroad - Our tour guide, Eddie, was an excellent guide. While this was only his second time leading this itinerary, he was very knowledgeable. He engaged us in conversation over a wide variety of topics and we learned a lot about Thailand. The temple we visited was lovely, but the highlight of the tour was the elephant haven. Preparing food for and feeding the elephants was awe inspiring. Ao far, this was the highlight of our trip. On the way back to Bangkok, we stopped along the roadside for the best Pad Thai we have ever had. While a long day, it was well worth it.
