A 2-day jungle escape with elephants, waterfalls, and bamboo rafting

About This Tour

Discover Northern Thailand’s lush mountain jungle on a two-day adventure that combines trekking, elephant observation, and bamboo rafting. This immersive experience lets you connect with nature, learn about local hill tribe culture, and spend quality time with rescued elephants in a peaceful, ethical setting.

Your journey begins with a scenic 1.5-hour drive south of Chiang Mai, passing rice fields, hill tribe villages, and quiet countryside. The trek leads through remote jungle trails to a hidden elephant sanctuary, where you’ll meet gentle giants living freely in their natural environment.
