3 en 1: recorrido por Doi Inthanon, santuario de elefantes y ruta de senderismo

A long but ADVENTUROUS day! Well worth it! At the Elephant Sanctuary, you can see the elephants are well taken care of and loved! Living as free as possible after being rescued. Doi Inthanon, so breathtaking being in the clouds. A beautiful tribute to the King and Queen. To end it with the waterfall hike was a perfect ending! Definitely got our steps in and the waterfalls were therapeutic to see and walk along.

This excursion provided a nice mix of activities- very memorable. It was a great way to see a lot in one day, the transport was convenient, and the driver and guide did a good job.

Booking this experience was super easy, the van showed up at our doorstep right on time. We were very comfortable the entire trip and were with a small group of just us and four others. Spending time with the elephants was definitely the highlight. The sanctuary workers seemed to truly love and care for these gentle giants and we had a ball feeding them and walking them to their watering hole. Lunch was excellent and fresh. Doi Inthanon was very cold, so definitely take a windbreaker or a jumper! The pagodas were pretty much covered in mist but still heaps to see indoors as well. Great hike to the Karen village through the lush forest, do be mindful that this is long, slippery at times and there are quite a few steps (downhill). Great experience overall, we had a wonderful day out.

This 3-in-1 tour is perfect for people who are trying to see a different area of Chiang Mai and have a full-day’s worth of activities. Our guide, Rainbow, was fun and knowledgeable, and made sure everybody in our small group of 6 was having a great time. The elephant sanctuary in the morning is definitely the highlight of this tour, where you get to feed and bathe the elephants, and have an overall lowkey morning. There was a baby elephant who was chasing and playing with her mahout the whole time which was really cute to watch. The afternoon can feel a little less exhilarating in comparison, but there are still some beautiful views and great spots to site-see. The garden behind the queen pagoda was under renovation during our tour which was a little unfortunate since we were looking forward to seeing it, but the pagodas themselves are still very beautiful and definitely worth a visit. Overall, a good way to spend the day and we would certainly recommend this tour to anybody wanting to take a day trip from the city.

Despite the rain and foggy conditions, we had a fantastic time with Jon! He was very knowledgeable along every point of the journey. We were awestruck by the elephants and being at the highest point in Thailand was something we will remember forever. Our favourite part was the hike, where you pass through lush forests with cascading waterfalls, see rice farms and various local fruit growing, and try local tea and coffee at the end. I would recommend this activity to anyone visiting Chiang Mai.

We had a fantastic day. Mr. Wat was our tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and we appreciated his humor, as well. Our 8 year old did just fine with the 11 hour trip. Our favorite part was the elephant sanctuary but the hike was nice too. Mr. Wat took plenty of pics which was nice gesture. Even though we hit a little rain, it did not ruin the hike or experience one bit. Check this tour out if you're in Chiang Mai!

We had an amazing time in this tour, we've done a lot of things that you could easily need two separate tours to do (i.e. we've done both elephants and Doi Inthanon in one tour). We got a bit unlucky with the weather as there was no good visibility for the Pagodas but that's just luck. Our guide pajarito (birdie) was absolutely amazing and we were super impressed with his level of Spanish!

We had a great day despite some downpours and sprinkling rain. Our guide, Mark, was very friendly and kept us informed. He answered our questions. The driver was very skilled at driving theountainpus roads, but the van was a bit cramped with no leg room in the front row. The elephant sanctuary was a fun and informative experience. We got to feed the herd of females and stand close to them while they were feeding on corn and grass. We followed them to the river and helped wash them. We had a veg pad thai and fresh fruit lunch. The store at the highest point was very brief and then we went to the King and Quees pagoda. There were some interesting buddha relics with info in english and thai. The hike in Doi Inthanon was really good and by then the rain had stopped. A local woman guide joined us to point out some plants and wildlife along the way. It was steep at the beginning and at the end but not too taxing overall. We finished in a local cafe/ shop to taste coffees and teas. It was a good combination tour if you have 12 hours. The mountain temps were more pleasant than the heat in Chiang Mai in May.

Fantastic time with the elephants.

Really fun day trip, well organized. The pictures online don’t do the hike justice, very pretty and all downhill. The elephants were cute and fun to feed. The sanctuary seemed like they take quite good care of the elephants. The pagodas didn’t exactly look like I thought they would from photos online (in general not just from this tour), but still a beautiful place.
