    Incredible experience!!!!

    Our family of 5, including 3 kids 8-12 years old, did this full day tour a couple of days ago. It was an amazing experience! The chance to be up close with the 3 elephants and their handlers in such a gorgeous location was truly special. We walked with the elephants, fed them bananas and watermelon, watched them roll and play in the mud pit and then our kids swam with them in the stream and helped to wash off the mud. We also had a delicious local lunch of chicken, fried ride, egg and tons of fruit. The pace was very relaxed. We spent about 5 hours at the sanctuary plus a few hours of driving. This is the tour to do if you really want to slow down and enjoy a quiet relaxed day in nature just observing the elephants and enjoying the beautiful surroundings.

    Never showed

    Unfortunately we did not get to participate as the driver never showed to pick us up. We waited over an hour at our hotel and ended up having to book a half day session somewhere else instead of doing the full day instead. After countless attempts to contact, the activity manager finally called me back and apologized offering a full refund and free booking the next day.

    Response from the operator: First of all, we must apologize. It's something we shouldn't have to accept. We understand, and we apologize again. We are deeply saddened by what happened. It stemmed from a new staff member recording your date as the next day, which didn't match your booked date by one day. Upon realizing this, we immediately contacted you. We offered a full refund and pleaded for an opportunity for you to participate in the activity with us the following day, as our staff had scheduled, at no extra cost. That was the only thing we could do. Everyone is sorry for what happened. We sincerely apologize for making you feel uncomfortable during this important part of your trip. If you return to Chiang Mai again, we hope to have the opportunity to serve you. Thank you very much. Our deepest apologies.

    Fabulous experience in this wonderful sanctuary

    Beautiful day with mother and daughter elephants being so well cared for by the farming family. Tam and Coffee were our guides giving us their history and daily routine. We were allowed to feed them and then walk through the forest and hills in their natural feeding grounds. Then we bathed in the river and were allowed to cool the elephants down with river water. Finally a beautifully prepared meal of local produce from the very kind farming family. Overall a fabulous experience for us.

    A good experience

    I would say it's a pretty good experience if you want to get up close and personal with Asians elephants. You will travel to a small farm with some rice patties and you get to take a walk with the elephants of a mountain. The elephants are very aware that they will be said sugarcane and we were up close personal and it was a very nice experience for my son and myself small type of run operation but I feel that you will enjoy the experience. Be sure to take lots of photos and wear shoes sandals you will be slippery

    Amazing day

    Amazing expirience! We booked a private tour and were alone with the elephants all day. We walked them, fed them and bathed them. Elephants were calm and happy and eating a lot!! The elephants freely decided the pace and we followed them. We will never forget this day!

    Care Pride Elephants: Full-Day Tour Experience: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Chiang Mai.

    How much does Care Pride Elephants: Full-Day Tour Experience cost?

    +

    Prices start at $87 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Chiang Mai usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Care Pride Elephants: Full-Day Tour Experience take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Chiang Mai is not rushed.

    Is Care Pride Elephants: Full-Day Tour Experience worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 96 out of 100, which we label "Peak Performance". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 670 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Chiang Mai, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Care Pride Elephants: Full-Day Tour Experience?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Care Pride Elephants: Full-Day Tour Experience suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Care Pride Elephants: Full-Day Tour Experience?

    +

    Around 234 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Chiang Mai can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Chiang Mai and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Care Pride Elephants: Full-Day Tour Experience start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Chiang Mai within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Chiang Mai?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Chiang Mai experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Half-Day Thai Cooking Class at Organic Farm in Chiang Mai, Full Day Thai Cooking at Farm (Chiang Mai), Thai and Akha Cooking Class in Chiang Mai. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Chiang Mai?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Chiang Mai?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
