Once In a Lifetime Experience

This was a once in a lifetime experience. The rapids were not too extreme (in case you are looking for a really thrilling rafting experience) but the views, the guides and the elephants made this absolutely amazing. Tom and Mike were hilarious and made sure every moment was an adventure. So many added “bonus” experiences like feeding an elephant, trying new fruits and even getting to ride in the kayaks ourselves. The waterfall was a blast and you can really tell the guides and employees love their jobs. The elephants were in an extremely ethical environment and roaming freely throughout the area. I swear one was smiling at us while eating bananas off of a tree. The food at the end was honestly one of the best meals we had while in Thailand. Don’t think twice if trying to decide to book this adventure!

Great time rafting in Chiang Mai

I had a great time on this trip, and would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys rafting or wants an authentic, exciting experience. The guides are hilarious and very friendly, also knowledgeable and well trained. This is a very well run trip, with a delicious meal at the end of it! We also had the opportunity to go down a naturally occurring waterfall slide, which was brilliant. I highly recommend!
