Must do experience

Cannot recommend this experience enough. Nikorn & Bancha were phenomenal guides that shared deep and incredible information about Karen culture and way of life which leads into experiencing a part of that way of life as you stay overnight. Along with that, you’re able to experience some of the best nature/sights Chiang Mai has to offer as you hike up a waterfall and the surrounding forest seeing buffalo, nature, and unforgettable views. To end the trip, you’re able to have a private ethical experience with elephants that will surely create lasting memories. For anyone looking a one-of-a-kind experience full of culture, nature, and elephants, this is the trip for you.
