Customer Reviews
I didn’t expect to get emotional, but seeing the elephants just be — no chains, no rides, no rush — was overwhelming in the most beautiful way. This place is full of love.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
They fed baby elephants, made vitamin balls, and even got to help bathe them. My son said, “This is one of the best days of my life.”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I’ve been to Chiang Mai three times and this is by far the most soulful, respectful experience I’ve had with elephants. No touristy vibe — just peace.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
You can feel the difference the moment you arrive. These elephants are free, and the staff truly cares. This is what tourism should look like.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
If you're looking for tricks, rides, or selfies — look elsewhere. But if you want to connect with nature and feel part of something meaningful, this is it.
