This was one of my greatest experience in Chiang Mai ever! Even we are Thais, It was such an unique and amazing experience and we love it soo much!! We have tried elephant-riding before, we was sitting on wooden carrier. But this one is mind-blowing! We drove to the camp. Not difficult to find but you need Google maps. Recommend to call for the resevation so that the staffs could prepare the elephants and meals for you in advance. I think they have a pick-up service from your hotel, please ask them for more information when you call them. It started with providing us some basic information about the elephants. Then they asked us to get change to mahout clothes. Clean clothes providing with chaning room and showers. Later they introduced us to meet the herd and let us feed them, pet them, ride on them, even teach us few commands to them. Shortly we started riding on the elephant like a Tarzan! My girl was named Ruby, very tall and cute. Soon realized that she loved to grab-and-go some snacks along the way. That's cute! Love so much while we were in the canel with the elephants. They love to play spraying the water. You could even command them to spray the water or kiss on your cheeks. They could also lift you up. with its nose. That's just amazing! So fresh! While we were riding, we all had a personal mahout to take care all of us. So it's pretty safe in my opinion. The staff and mahout kept asking if we were alright. They were also an amazingly photographter! I was so surprised after seeing all the photos after the trip. Balancing myself on the elephants was very challenging! Recommend to bring a case with rope that could wear around your neck or a head wrap for a go pro would be a great idea. But if you do not have it, That's just fine. Mahouts could help you take photos as well. it's ok to come alone or with a friend, but you know, the more the merrier with the herd of elephants! you will have so much fun! Even it was just few hours, I really had a great moment with my friend, mahouts and of course! this herd of elephants. Thanks to K.Joe and his team for taking care all of us. Very nice and friendly staffs. PS. Would I go back? OMG!! YES!!

Cool unique spot where the mineral deposits on the rocks allow you to climb the waterfall. Long awkward stairway down, a bit of fun work to get up.

I had a friend suggest this Wat to me for an interesting visit. He described it as a meeting of Buddha and Dr. Seuss and that was a completely accurate description. The intricate detail of the whimsical features are a delight to the senses. It is a large complex that is still under construction - I look forward to another visit when I am back in Thailand.

We took a boat trip on the lake to eat at a restaurant! The facilities are good at many of the “restaurants” including accommodation, water activities and more. There are families that have been granted permission to live on the lake in floating houses which are interesting to see. Most of these families rely on visitors for their income. Worth a visit!
