Chiang Mai Elephant Sanctuary, Bamboo Rafting and Waterfall Tour

Mark_V, Jul 2026

Great Experience With Paul

We had an amazing experience on the Chiang Mai Elephant Sanctuary, Bamboo Rafting, and Waterfall tour, and a big part of that was thanks to our guide, Paul. Paul was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout the entire day. He made sure everyone was comfortable, shared helpful tips along the way, and took lots of photos for our family so we could simply enjoy the experience without worrying about capturing every moment. What really stood out was his kindness. During the jungle trek, my son’s flip-flops broke, making it difficult for him to continue. Without hesitation, Paul took off his own flip-flops and gave them to my son so he could finish the hike safely. That level of generosity and genuine care is something we will never forget. Paul went above and beyond to make our day memorable, and we are incredibly grateful for everything he did. If you have the opportunity to take this tour, we highly recommend requesting Paul as your guide. He truly made an unforgettable experience even better!

Great day trip

Great day trip tour from Chiang Mai. Sticky waterfall was fun and a refreshing experience and our guide was helpful and provided tons of interesting and educational information.

Adventurous Day!

A long but ADVENTUROUS day! Well worth it! At the Elephant Sanctuary, you can see the elephants are well taken care of and loved! Living as free as possible after being rescued. Doi Inthanon, so breathtaking being in the clouds. A beautiful tribute to the King and Queen. To end it with the waterfall hike was a perfect ending! Definitely got our steps in and the waterfalls were therapeutic to see and walk along.

Half-Day Thai Cooking Class at Organic Farm in Chiang Mai

Nicole_T, Jun 2026

Great way to see Old City

A fun outing that takes you through the backstreets of the old town, with stops at notable temples, the old city wall, and a food market. You’ll pass dozens of cafés and small shops. The guide was friendly, safety conscious, and knowledgeable about the sites we visited. I took the morning tour and it got hotter as the morning progressed. We had some shade and cloud cover throughout the ride, which was nice. The mountain bikes are in good shape, and the tour also provided a helmet and water bottle. Wear long sleeves or sunscreen. I wore a sun hat under the helmet which provided extra coverage which I needed!

Experience Elephant Sanctuary + Sticky Waterfall

Gareth_H, Jun 2026

We loved it and you will too ❤️

Do not worry about whether this is an ethical tour or not. Doodoi is an elephant sanctuary founded by a monk who saved an elephant from harsh working conditions in the local logging industry. Since then all the elephants cared for at this sanctuary are Rescue elephants. We had a wonderful day learning about the elephants and making their food before feeding them. The elephants are very tactile and it is a privilege to be so close to them that you can look into their eyes, and they into yours - a deep experience! We also learned how paper is made from their waste (!) before crossing the river to their free area and bathing with them in the water. Our guide at Doodoi was called Moon and she loved her job and treated us really well, taking lots of photos and videos which we will treasure. Our driver Ming was lovely and very helpful, always answering our questions and clearly happy to see us enjoying the experience. We were even fed with freshly cooked food on site. Give this tour a go, we did and loved it and you will too. Don’t forget to make a donation while you’re there to help the Sanctuary with its work.

Must Do Adventure!

We visited Chiang Mai Elephant Care and were able to touch the elephants and feed them. I was happy that they had plenty of space and only limited visitors and that they were not taken out of their normal routine. Their caregivers gave us lots of interesting information. Definitely a highlight of my visit to Thailand.

Sticky waterfall ATV and White water rafting Adventures

Emily_O, Mar 2026

Adventure-packed day with great guides and unforgettable stops

This was one of the best experiences we did in Chiang Mai and I would highly recommend it if you’re looking for a full day of adventure. The tour included ATV riding, white water rafting, a stop at the Sticky Waterfall, and food — which made it a really well-rounded and enjoyable day. Everything was very well organized from start to finish. Pick-up was on time, transportation was smooth, and the schedule flowed really well without feeling rushed. Each activity had enough time to enjoy without it feeling overwhelming. The ATV ride was a highlight. Riding through the jungle trails, dirt paths, and mud made it feel like a real adventure. The guides made sure everyone was comfortable before starting, which made it fun even for beginners. The Sticky Waterfall was such a unique experience. Being able to actually climb up the waterfall was something I’ve never done before and definitely worth it. It was also a great break in the day to enjoy the scenery and relax a bit. White water rafting was a great way to end the day. It was exciting and fun, but still felt safe with clear instructions from the guides. It added a really fun and energetic finish to the experience. Lunch was included and a nice addition — it gave us time to recharge and made the day feel complete rather than rushed between activities. A big part of what made this experience stand out was our guide, Mr. K. He was friendly, professional, and made sure everything ran smoothly. He kept the group engaged, explained each activity clearly, and really added to the overall experience. Overall, this tour is perfect if you want a mix of adventure, nature, and unique experiences all in one day. Everything was well coordinated and felt like great value. I would definitely recommend this to anyone visiting Chiang Mai.

Chiang Mai Half Day Elephant Sanctuary Observation and Waterfall

Lacey_g, Jan 2026

Highly recommended elephant sanctuary experience

Such a wonderful day with the elephants! The hotel pick up was smooth! It is quite a drive to the sanctuary from the city which I didn’t realize. Dramamine is a good idea for anyone who gets motion sickness. The scenery at the sanctuary is beautiful. Feeding the elephants was a fun and unique experience as was hiking with them through the jungle! The staff was all very nice and did everything they could to make it a positive experience for everyone! We were worried about going to a sanctuary because we’d heard of elephant cruelty, but there was no cruelty of any sort at this sanctuary. The elephants seemed very happy and healthy living in a natural environment! Lunch, swimming in the waterfall and making a local craft at the end were all added bonuses. I highly recommend this experience! Good shoes for hiking are a must!

Chaing Mai tours let you experience the best of the Rose of the North: Spend the day at an elephant sanctuary, climb to a golden temple atop Thailand’s highest peak in Doi Inthanon National Park, and master local specialties such as khao soi (curry noodle soup) during a cooking class. Plus, day trips to nearby Chiang Rai reveal even more architectural masterpieces.
