    Highlight of the day was definitely the elephants! Such an awesome elephant sanctuary that clearly cares so much for these animals. We got lots of time interacting with them. Lunch was good, vegetarian pad Thai and fruits with beer and soda for purchase. The national park was nice as well, the twin pagodas are very beautiful on a clear day like we had. The hike has a gorgeous waterfall and ends with a cute stop in a coffee village where you can purchase local handmade goods and coffee. Lots of driving, more than expected on the way there, but the ride home is a little shorter. Ladies - bring pants for the pagodas.

    A lovely full day trip. Our guide TomTam was friendly, informative and fun. The trip was very well organised and ran to time. The journey was broken up into manageable segments. The trip to the White Karen village felt reasonably ethical and not intrusive.

    The Twin Pagodas site is beautiful and gives commanding views of the surrounding hills. Its peaceful and cool (at least it was in February)

    TomTam kept us updated throughout the day and took photos of the whole group, which he shared with us.

    Praise goes to TomTam and driver Phra Tuam for a great day.

    Our Guide A-K was charming, knowledgeable and extremely professional. He shared in the experience throughout the tour demonstrating how to prepare the food and feed the elephants he was in the water with the group and the elephants and guided us up the sticky waterfall. A-K also took pictures of the group through the day which he shared at the end of the trip. The elephants were fantastic small with only three Elephants but it was very personal. The sticky waterfalls is one of those Wow I’m glad I did that experience get wet and get climbing.

    We were expecting there to be no more than 12 people to a guide on this tour but ended up in a group of 22 in 2 minivans. However, our guide Matthew was very good and kept us all informed. Lunch was a bit hit and miss as hot food had been left out on our table when we arrived and was barely warm which was disappointing. Good variety of things to see.

    This tour was amazing; from our guide to the temples and the food! Sunrise over Chiang Mai you don’t want to miss. The feeling of peace while meditating and listening to the chants of the monks while sitting amongst architecture and statues that are breath taking. Our guide Non was full of the history from, his 6 years in the monastery, of the temples and how the temples got be! Doing miss out on this tour

    We were picked up on time at the designated pick-up point by a friendly guide and driver team. We made two back-to-back stops that were unscheduled that could have been combined into one, these were bathroom/store stops. Then we stopped at a long-neck people village for 30 minutes and only the guide and two others went inside. Given the long drive and the short amount of time that day, we thought it would be better if this village visit became part of a different tour. These stops/detours could have given the group more time at the originally scheduled stops to visit. The Rong Khun, Rong Seur Ten, and Huay Pla Kang Temples are some of the most beautiful temples in Thailand and are well worth the visit. The Sigha Park/Tea Plantation is quite beautiful and it is a shame we did not have time to stop by the park souvenir shop to buy some of the tea plantation-produced tea. Overall, the day was filled with beautiful views and experiences.

    It was an amazing experience. You can share with the elephants walking right next to them as they do their usual rutine, including giving them a mud shower in order to keep them clean of the worms.

    The tour from Tik was excellent - he explained information about all the stops very well and the trip was well paced, with more than enough time to explore each stop at your own pace. The place for lunch was good too. Would definitely recommend!
