Our guide Limmy was very knowledgeable and accommodating! He is so nice and personable. We felt comfortable and looked after since my friend and I are not used to large animals and elephants were a bit out of our comfort zone. The temple was beautiful and the sticky waterfall was a fun experience! it was amazing!
We are a young couple travelling in Thailand, during our stay in Chaing Mai we booked a couple of activities with Limmy who end up being our tour guide for the day and who accompanied us to the zipline and elephant sanctuary on the surroundings of the city. We had an amazing experience, where we learnt a lot about the elephants and their way of living, Limmy transmited us his passion and knowledge about these animals that made us understand more about their history and environment. Finding Limmy had made our stay even more special, thank you, you rock it ! :)
This excursion was our favourite of all our experiences in Thailand! Whilst the visit to the temple was worthwhile and we enjoyed the experience of walking up the waterfall, visiting the elephant sanctuary was definitely the star of the show! It was a fantastic experience and privilege to feed and pet these huge, powerful but gentle animals in their natural habitat, completely free to roam around at will. I would definitely recommend this excursion, especially if you are an animal lover!
Excellent day with our guide Limmy, very attentive, always caring and perfectly organized. Thanks to him, we avoided the crowds and took full advantage of every place. The elephant sanctuary was an incredible, unforgettable experience. Thanks so much Limmy for this awesome day, we really enjoyed it!
We are a couple of Spaniards, who come from Burgos, coincided by chance with Limmy at the exit of the train station, offered to take us to the hotel and at first we did not trust thinking it was a hoax, but good thing we got on board, as on the way to the hotel he convinced us to do the excursion with him. Finally, we did the excursion with him and it has been AMAZING, we recommend it 100%, everything super well planned and organized, and being a small group much better explains everything and you enjoy much more. If you doubt whether to take it or not, taking it without weighing it will be an unforgettable day.
my friend and I had the best day ever on the tour today with limmy! we got lucky with a quiet day so it was just the three of us and limmy coordinated and planned everything perfectly. the temple and sticky waterfall were both amazing, and of course, the elephants were the best part. my friend and I were both so happy to see that the sanctuary was very ethical and that the elephants were free to roam as they liked. the sanctuary was so quiet when we arrived and we had so much one on one time with the elephants which was incredible. you can tell they are very happy and well looked after, and limmy is also incredibly passionate and knowledgeable about them so was such an amazing guide. lunch was also provided and was delicious. the whole experience was so amazing and as two female solo travellers we felt so safe and enjoyed every minute of the day. cannot recommend this tour enough, and the price is great for the experience. thank you limmy!
Lemmie took is to an amazing temoke to start the trip...not one people usually get to travel to...words cannot explain...stunning!!! Sticky waterfalls, amazing, good fun apart from having to wait for people to take pictures all the way up! Lovely lunch at the sanctuary...elephants were gorgeous and well looked after...loved it all. Lemmie was a great rour guide...would highly reccommend
We had the most amazing day with Limmy. We started at the temple before anyone else was there which was so peaceful and great opportunity for photos. Then we went to sticky waterfalls where we had as much time as we wanted to explore. Last we spent a few hours at the elephant sanctuary which was truly amazing. Limmy was so knowledgeable with every stop and in between. His love for the elephants really showed and we learned so much from him!
Our guide was very friendly and had great information! We had a fantastic time, felt very safe and well taken care of. We never felt rushed. Absolutely would recommend!
Favourite trip in Thailand. Mr Lemie was a knowledgable and attentive guide. Our tour only had 4 in the mini bus and we had sufficient time at the wat, sticky waterfall and elephants. We did the wat first and upon arriving were the only group there a rare treat , the waterfall was fun and the interactions with the elephants magical. It is clear the elephants have a connection with mr Lemie and we loved the fact it was a local sanctuary with only 13 elephants and few other tourists there, the elephants seemed very well cared for and were allowed to do as they pleased they were not encouraged/ forced to do anything they didn’t want to. Would highly recommend this thoroughly enjoyable trip.
