After I paid, a customer service representative added me on WeChat very soon. I mentioned the highly praised customer service representative Xiaoyou, who was serious and responsible, communicated promptly, and answered all my questions. Especially on the day when my family was going to the airport to return, we encountered a traffic jam in Chiang Mai due to heavy rain. We couldn't get a taxi. I was unfamiliar with the place and was afraid of missing the plane. I asked Xiaoyou for help with a try. Xiaoyou was very helpful. She didn't refuse me, a tourist she didn't know at all, and the trouble I caused her was not her job. Instead, she helped me find a car enthusiastically and quickly. Thank you so much Xiaoyou. My trip to Chiang Mai ended successfully.
It is nice to spend time with our kids to get to know some animals. We enjoyed the tram rides and the animal shows. But, there is one animal (male whire lipn) during the night show especially first show looks so thin, that we thought whether it has been treated so well or not, it looks like that the lion did not get enough food& treatment. That made us a bit sad. Hope the management of the Safari could improve the quality and conditions of the animals bring shown. For sure, we prefer them to roam freely in their habitats.

🌴Chiang Mai Jungle Jump is amazing! This experience directly maxed out my travel happiness value! From the moment I got on the shuttle bus and headed for the mountains, I was healed by the lush rainforest. The coach was super enthusiastic. He explained safety knowledge all the way and did not forget to liven up the atmosphere~
When wearing the equipment, you can feel professional and meticulous. All equipment has been checked repeatedly, and the sense of safety is directly maxed out! The moment I stood on the platform, my adrenaline soared. When I whizzed past the high-altitude slide, the wind whistled in my ears. Under my feet were layers of tree canopies, as if I turned into a flying bird flying through the forest, exciting and shocking! There are also aerial suspension bridges and rappelling links along the way. Each one is super challenging, especially the 360-degree rotating platform. The moment you overlook the entire rainforest is so beautiful that you can't speak!
The coach team not only escorts you throughout the journey, but also captures all kinds of funny moments. You can get exclusive photos and videos immediately after the end.
Highly recommended to every adventurer who comes to Chiang Mai! Here, the perfect combination of excitement and beautiful scenery is definitely an unforgettable experience in a lifetime! Next time I come to Chiang Mai, I will watch it again! 🌟
Chiang Mai is full of what to do! We planned to stay just a couple of days and ended up for more than a week :)Being in nature was just the best part!

Tickets: 800 on site, 720 on klook

Chiang Mai Zoo Highlights:
The attractions of Chiang Mai Zoo mainly include the following parts:
1. Panda Pavilion°: The Panda Pavilion is closed and there is no performance. Already dead
2. Whale Pavilion°: Closed.
3. Ice and Snow World Paradise°: A separate fee is required, other animals are basically sleeping, and birds are the highlight.
4. Aquarium°: It displays a variety of marine life, such as colorful fish and a variety of corals, with exquisite design and transparent glass tunnels.
5. Walking Area°: There is a beautiful lake view, and you can enjoy animals such as big-eared foxes, Malays, civet cats, white raccoons, squirrel monkeys, etc. along the jungle trail. The walking area will be more interesting at night because there is enough light during the day and you can see more details.
6. Herbivore Sightseeing Area^: There are herbivores such as giraffes and deer. You can take a sightseeing bus to observe these animals up close. That kind of bus, 70 baht per person,
7. Carnivore Area°: There are Bengal white tigers, cougars, lions, spotted hyenas, Asian black bears, foxes and other animals. Visitors can take a small train to observe these animals.
8. Animal performance area°: There are tiger performances, water dance shows and dance shows.
Chiang Mai Night Zoo Highlights:
There are tiger shows, wild animal shows and a Thai show that has nothing to do with animals.
The last bus is at 9 pm, and you must see herbivores first and then carnivores.
There is also a half-hour walking trail, so it is recommended to come early.
Suggested time to play: If you want to experience both zoos, it is recommended to start at 5 or 6 pm, so that you can catch some daytime activities.
It is still worth going. It is close to the city center. The number of animals is not as many as the night zoo. There are no pandas in the panda house. It is expensive to feed the animals, about 20rmb per time. Pay attention to sun protection! !

It's a great experience. The park is not big and you can experience the whole papermaking process. It is a good place to learn and play. In the end, you can DIY your own notebook. Little girls especially like it. There are also refreshments there, and adults can relax there. It's very comfortable.
A great experience.
The park is small and easy to walk, and every angle is beautiful.
According to different times, there are guides in different languages, and special people will explain and demonstrate the whole process of elephant poop papermaking. The whole family will follow it. At the end, there is a small DIY area where you can make your own souvenirs with paper made by elephant poop (extra charge).
Adults and children are very happy, and it is recommended to go.

Very good experience, Toyota Hiace pick-up and drop-off. After arriving, we first had a basic explanation, experienced the making of elephant food, and then had free feeding time. After feeding, we went to bathe the elephants. It was said that we bathed them, but in fact, we basically watched them bathe. Of course, there was a sense of participation, but the water we splashed was just a drop in the bucket for the elephants. After the meal, there was a simple meal, with few varieties, but the taste was good. It was just right to replenish energy
I like this very primitive elephant conservation camp. It is not just for taking pictures, but it is really fun. The elephants are free and cute.
The elephant conservation camp is a very elephant-friendly tourism mode. Feed the elephants, bathe the elephants, give the elephants mud spa, and walk with the elephants at close range [highly recommended]
There are nearly 50 elephant camps in Chiang Mai. Because the natural environment here is suitable for elephants to live and live, the elephants will be more active and cute. 📍Kerchor Elephant Conservation Camp is a large-scale elephant conservation camp. There are now 11 elephants and 2 baby elephants over 1 year old. The local Karon ethnic minority is very simple and loves the elephants they raise. The elephants here are very free and happy.
Love it😍

I can't describe the happiness and touching feeling in words.
The tour guide is very good, the elephant owner and his family are very good, the friends I met are very good, the sun is very good, the scenery is very good, the elephants are very good, everything is very good, I hope the elephants can grow up healthy and happy❤️🐘
Satian Park is very close to Chiang Mai city, about a 20-minute drive away. It is a new scenic spot opened last year. The elephant ladies are very nice, the tour guides are also good, the environment is very good and comfortable. You can interact closely with the elephants. The children had a lot of fun. The experience was great and the service was very good
