Premium Halvdag Ethisk Elephant Sanctuary oplevelse Max9Guest

Ford was excellent. Super knowledgeable and great guide.

There are 4 elephants here and all are obviously well treated by the humans here. Our guide/explainer is named Ford. He was happy to share with us. No riding of the elephants or bathing is allowed. Just feeding and viewing. This was a positive experience. I hope you book this experience.

Wonderful half day. From the time of pickup until the end, everything was great. The elephant caretakers are obviously very concerned with the well being of the animals. We were able to help feed and pet the elephants while learning about and just enjoying being with them. We had several hours, so didn’t feel rushed. A very good lunch was served just before heading back to Chiang Mai. Vests were provided to put on over your shirt. Rubber boots were available to borrow as well. This small group tour was a great choice. Definitely would recommend!

Been to other Elephant experiences and this is by far the best I have experienced! The animals are very well cared for. The workers are friendly and attentive. The Pad Thai and fresh fruit were the icing on the cake. Highly recommend!

Ford was a terrific guide. The elephants are well cared for. You get to be right near them!!

I had an amazing experience. My guide, Ford, was excellent. And I was very impressed with this particular sanctuary's genuine concern for the elephant well-being. There was a very strict cap on the number of visitors per day so as not to stress the elephants. And I could tell that they were all very happy. Particularly the cute little elephant named Lucky! I was allowed to spend as much time as I wanted observing the elephants. And I interacted with them several times during feeding. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

We visited Chiang Mai Elephant Care and were able to touch the elephants and feed them. I was happy that they had plenty of space and only limited visitors and that they were not taken out of their normal routine. Their caregivers gave us lots of interesting information. Definitely a highlight of my visit to Thailand.

This is truly an ethical sanctuary. They don’t force the elephants to do anything you just follow them around and feed them. Lucky the 2yo is truly a joy and I would come back again.

Appears to be a highly ethical rescue park with massive open spaces and none of the touristy type activities of some parks. Animals all seem highly cared for; appear to have great relationship with rangers. “Lucky” the two year old elephant is hilarious - just a massive puppy. I highly recommend visiting.

We were lucky that it was just the two of us on this day, it felt like a private tour and we were able to dictate the pace (a faster one since we had to go back in time for work meetings). Todd picked us up from the hotel, on the way there he told us more about elephant sanctuaries but also life in Chiang Mai. When we got there, Ford was very welcoming and explained the whole day. Best part was he told us more about what an ethical sanctuary really means and this in fact is one of them because they don’t force elephants to go into the water for people to bath them, also they don’t overcrowd the day with tourists and visitors so that elephants don’t get too spoiled being fed too much sweet bananas which makes them walk less. Also their land is huge and they don’t overcrowd it since elephants graze constantly and eat a lot of greens. Highly recommend the half day tour, I don’t imagine doing a full day one I’d get bored. Pad Thai lunch was declined, we asked for vegetarian.
