This tour was great! It...

5.00This tour was great! It was a very long day, we left our hotel at 6:30 and didn't get back until 19:30. Note, there is a LOT of driving, especially on small windy roads towards the sanctuary. What we liked the most was seeing the elephants, being able to feed them and walk with them. It was amazing witnessing the creatures up close and we loved how ethical and respectful this sanctuary was. No riding, no washing and no petting! The experience in the park was great too, we really enjoyed the hike with the beautiful waterfalls and views. The Karen village was a wonderful experience with the coffee tasting and the lunch was very tasty. Overall, we thought this tour was well worth the money and highly recommend it.
Amazing trip

5.00The day was absolutely amazing. From learning about the elephants to walking with them in their natural habitat to the amazing hike and seeing the Karen village it was a beautiful day. The guides were all fabulous as well. We felt we got to see a whole other side of Thailand from the cities.

4.00A long day, pick-up at 6:30 am and return by 6:30 pm. The three activities were all enjoyable, the walk with elephants observing their behavior was relaxing. The hike to the waterfall and along the river was nice, the 1 1/2 hrs passed quickly. The guide did a good job in navigating the day activities on time.
Very ethical elephant sanctuary

5.00Most ethical elephant sanctuary you can find, with a no-touch policy. You do feed the elephants, walk with them through the jungle and observe them enjoying their bath while you eat your lunch (vegetarian pad Thai prepared by the sanctuary staff). The Doi Inthanon tour is a little bit too rushed but it is magnificent. The hike to the waterfall is downhill so accessible to all. Only the tribe village visit with coffee/tea tasting was disappointing, it felt a bit pushy and commercial, you're on a roaster there. All in all, I recommend this tour, especially for the sanctuary and Chai, the amazing guide we had.
Great experience in beautiful location

5.00An amazing intimate experience. We were picked up on time by our guides and drove out to the sanctuary after stopping at a 7/11 for breakfast. The sanctuary is in the mountains, so a beautiful drive with a couple of steeps bends. When you park you are then transported further down the hill by 4x4 and then walk the last couple of hundred meters across the river. The guides are amazing and hilarious, we all had a real giggle. They are informative and passionate about the work. There are 5 beautiful elephants at the sanctuary, we found out lots about them. It’s hands off apart from feeding them some snacks at the start. Pumpkin was the snack the morning we went. We fed them 20-25 chunks each, so a great opportunity. After feed ing it’s time for a walk. The elephants dictate where the walk goes…. Was very uphill on our walk, who knew they were so nimble on their feet! After getting back it was time for a cuppa and swim if anyone wanted. The elephants came over to the area and did go for a drink. Certainly no bathing or swimming. After a delicious Pad Thai we all got to make a Yadom. As only 20ish in our group it was a cozy experience. I know everyone goes on about elephant nature park, but the are other ethical sanctuaries in the area that deserve the financial support of tourists. I can’t recommend Joy Elephant sanctuary enough, such special memories were made

5.00An amazing experience to see this well cared for and maintained elephant sanctuary. Great and informed guides. Also the hike was the highlight of the tour going through the Karen region seeing the rice fields and the small town was the best part. My favorite part of my trip visiting Chiang Mai
Excellent tour!

5.00I've never booked a tour before but this tour was amazing from start to finish! The van that picked us up and took us between the activities was clean, spacious and very comfortable. At the sanctuary the elephants were very well cared for and after much research I am very happy we chose the Joy elephant sanctuary. For the rest of the tour, highest point, hiking and visiting the Karen tribe, our guide Joe was kind, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. What an unforgettable experience to learn about elephants, northern Thai culture and the communities that live here. Thank you to everyone involved!
