Fabulous and funny! - From the start to the end this experience was fabulous! We were picked up from our hotel in a comfy van and drove about an hour and a half to the base for the rafting. The rafting itself was great fun - the guides very hilarious! But also we felt safe in their hands. The last section is a paddle through the elephant sanctuary which was beautiful. The elephants looked well cared for and free to roam around within the large area. We had a delicious lunch and then a short walk to a waterfall where some people jumped down into a pool. All in all a fabulous day out!

Such fun! Well organised... - Such fun! Well organised and stress-free experience run by a team with good humour. I felt safe with the equipment, safety briefing, and support crew on hand. Lunch after the rafting was tasty and there was more than I could finish. And the waterfall sliding was a fun way to finish off the day before heading back

Great river experience with bonus elephants!!!! - These guys were fantastic! Great communication during pick up. The water levels were low but they put us in two man kayaks and kept it fun and exciting. The lower part of the trip we did ran through the elephant sanctuary- there were elephants in the river as we floated by and water buffalo. It was extraordinary. It also felt very safe and well thought out. We went with two families, four adults and 4 teenagers. Everyone had a great time! The lunch was really nice as well. Highly recommend- absolutely would go with these guys again!

Great customer service - I was a solo traveller to chiang mai and booked a trip with these guys. Thomas picked me up from inside the old town square and drove me to there base. On route Thomas told me that I was there only booking today. (Probably because of burning season). When I arrived I was made very welcome by the team and introduced to Em (definitely spelt wrong) who was going to be my raft guide. We got kited up and drove approx 15 mins upstream to the start. A quick safety briefing and we was underway We used the small raft as it was just me but with low river levels the Larger rafts would have struggled anyway. During the experience we encountered some good white water in places and elephants bathing in the river as we passed. Lunch was served at there base before heading up the hill to a waterfall and played about on a natural slide Whist rafing a photographer was chasing us and got some great pictures. ( I was expecting the hard sell but they simply sent them to me on what's app.) All in all I cannot recommend this company high enough. I think it just goes to show that one customer is as important to them as a raft full of customers. THANK YOU GUYS

A Highlight of our Honeymoon: Rapids and Mini-Waterfall Adventure! - This tour was so SO much fun! The scenery of the river was beautiful and when the rapids came up it didn’t feel dangerous but still gave us juuust the right dosage of adrenaline and sense of adventure! The guides were also so funny and playful and the food was yummy. They even took us on a short hike afterward and we slid down a waterfall! Then we rode back on the top of the truck and it was just the perfect end to our wonderful honeymoon! Highly recommend if you’re looking for fun and adventure!

Awesome Family Day Out - Fantastic full day out and great value for a full day of rafting with the kids. We had 3 boys (8-11) and 3 adults across 2 rafts - really nice and friendly guides and a nice Pad Thai for lunch. Tip for booking is to contact them directly as you get mega discount

unbearable conditions For the elephants - This was the worst and sadest experience I have had in a long time. When you book, you are not informed that this tour includes seeing elephants; if we had known that, we would never have gone. The elephants are chained to trees and trained to pose for tourists. The entire experience with river rafting and the beautiful nature was overshadowed by the unbearable conditions these elephants live under. Elephants are not animals that should live in captivity—they have emotions on a level comparable to us humans. I cannot describe the feeling I am left with, and from the very first elephant we saw, I wanted to go home, because I in no way agreed to support such an ethically wrong place that is so indifferent to the lives of these beautiful elephants. If you want a clear conscience, I would advise you to never go anywhere near this place.
