Thank you Mister Ken! My friend and I visited elephant village on New Years Day 2023 and had such a lovely experience. It is clear to see that the 4 elephants living here are very happy. There are no chains, and no riding of the elephants, you get to feed the elephants fruits and help them bathe in the river. They seem to love Mr Ken and his family, I would definitely recommend this place over other elephant tours in the area. We were given transportation to and from Elephant village, as well as a nice lunch, for the reasonable price of 1750thb.

I had an amazing week at the Elephant village sanctuary. I stayed with Mr Ken and his family and from the second I arrived I felt like a part of the family. They taught me how to look after the elephants and live like a local. The elephants themselves are lovely, you can tell they love their carers very much and listen to their words. I fed them a range of fruits and helped bathe them daily. The village tribe is unique and I assure you that you will never see anything like this in the WHOLE of Thailand as their history is unique and rich. I really appreciate this time as I’ve never done anything like this and have learnt a lot about their community it’s defiantly an experience i’m going to remember for the rest of my life :) Thank you Mr Ken From Este

Booked this excursion on a whim and I am so glad I did! Ken was an excellent tour guide. We were greeted with an elephant and her baby Nancy upon arrival. We fed them and played with them! Such amazing creatures. The trek was a bit more intense than expected (wear sneakers), but it allowed us to see much of the property. The elephants were free roaming and we saw and fed a total of 6. The last stop at the waterfall was an experience I will never forget. The last elephant came down to get cooled off by the stream. Our last stop was a traditional lunch made by Ken’s family. If you’re looking for an authentic experience, this place is the way to go. 12/10!!!!

Ethical elephant sanctuary in chiang mai. Great experience seeing the elephants in their natural environment. More than we expected as got to trek through the jungle and visit the waterfall too. Mr Ken and his staff were great and the lunch was delicious.

The most amazing experience ever. Best day spent in Thailand! Got so much more than expected! Elephant met us at the water fall and swam around with us! Ken was incredible, the best guide ever, genuinely couldn’t recommend anything more! 🫶🫶

Visiting the elephant sanctuary was an absolute delight and an experience I will cherish forever. From the moment I arrived, it was clear that the well-being of these magnificent creatures was the sanctuary's top priority. Big thanks to Ken our guide, who’s popularly known as “The Elephant Man”

Got to feed and pet four different elephants for a good amount of time and then hiked down to swim in a waterfall. Also got to eat a meal from the food they make there. It was incredible and I would absolutely recommend!
