A must do in Chang Mai!! - The elephants were a sight to see and really a highlight of our visit to Chang Mai. Our guide Tong was fun and engaging, He has great stories of the Thai and Myanmar people. He’s a natural tour guide, spoke excellent English. And makes a fantastic Pad Thai with fresh fruit for lunch. Our elephant guide Ford was pleasant and knowledgeable as well. The elephants in our humble opinion are very well cared for and would highly recommend this adventure. This is a dad and his 15 year old daughter travelling Thailand. We also recommend going to the Sticky Waterfalls in the afternoon. My daughter loved it. Keep taking care of the elephants Ford!! The support guides (did not get their names) are friendly and gentle with their elephants. They are good at what they do. We loved our experience with Chang Mai Elephant Care.

Amazing - Go go go!! It was absolutely incredible. We booked through our hostel and also went to a temple and sticky waterfalls during this tour. The elephants were definitely the highlight of the whole trip! You really noticed how they cared about them and took good care of them.

Amazing well loved elephants - Tod picked us up from our hotel on time. We stopped briefly at a rest station to get drinks and toilet break on the way to the sanctuary. When we arrived the elephant came straight up to our vehicle! There were three elephants there and they have tours of 9 people/group morning and afternoon. We went in the morning. We were not disappointed! We fed the elephants, stroked them and washed them. They were not chained and wandered off as they pleased. One elephant did not want to join in for wash time so she just wandered off it was no problem. The elephants have a large area to roam and were well cared for and loved. Tod was an excellent guide/host as he explained a lot about the elephants and their care. We then had a lovely lunch home cooked and served in banana leaf so minimal environmental impact! We did tour C so after the elephants we went and did white water rafting. Tod again was so good and stopped on the way to take our photos. After this we drove on to the waterfall. We were given plenty of time to visit and walk up the waterfall. Returned safely home on time and exhausted but worth every penny!

Sweet Animals - The elephants, trainers and guides were very sweet. They showed us how to take care of the elephants by feeding, walking, and bathing them.

A magical adventure - A unique place in this world. The way they treat the elephants is very sweet, kind and careful. You can tell that everything they do is done with love and with the due respect they deserve as rescued animals. The place, the food, the staff, absolutely everything perfect. It is evident that their mission is to care for and not mistreat or exploit the elephants. An experience full of magic and joy.

Great time with elephants - The sanctuary is not big and there was only our group, so we could enjoy interaction with the elephants. The place is scenic and the lunch was good. Great choice for a half day activity.

Best place to see elephants! - This was one of my best experiences ever in Thailand! I had a tour with my father and girlfriend where we were able to enjoy beautiful elephants! We fed them, washed them and then had a delicious meal with a view of nature and elephants. We then went to a beautiful temple and ended the day with the sticky waterfall. All this was very well supervised by the friendliest people in Thailand. I recommend this to everyone.

Elephant spa day - The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. He took pictures and videos with his GoPro and sent them to us, so if you don’t bring your phone or camera, you will still get great photos The elephant was awesome, bathing the elephant was fun, you can see how thankful they are. Highly recommend.
