  • Description

    Embark on an unforgettable full-day adventure at the Elephant Jungle Sanctuary, where you'll have the chance to get close to these magnificent creatures in a natural and sustainable environment. Located near a Karen village in a mountainous region, this sanctuary offers visitors an opportunity to witness elephants living freely in a forested paradise. The day begins with a scenic 1.5-hour drive through Northern Thailand's countryside, offering glimpses of rural life and breathtaking landscapes. Upon arrival, an English-speaking guide will lead you through the sanctuary, where you'll meet and interact with the elephants, learn about their behaviour, and discover their unique histories. This enriching experience includes feeding the elephants, taking photos, bathing and brushing them in the river, and even joining them for a therapeutic mud spa. The day culminates with a delicious traditional Thai lunch, followed by a relaxing walk through the Karen village before returning to Chiang Mai.
