Not getting your money worth. If you’d like to save some money and see the Elephant sanctuary and Erawan park i would recommend you just get a driver for a day (or take public transport) and book tickets yourself, very easy. My Tour guide didn’t pick me up. I had to pay 3300 extra to get picked up. She didn’t speak any English, and left me at the Erawan to go alone. I’m not even sure if the guide was included cause we had almost no contact. The Erawan was beautiful, absolutely loved it. The Elephant sanctuary was amazing and is memory for life, we got to feed, bathe and hang with the elephants before having a simple nice lunch. And they also treated really well. But they also have their own guides that tell you about the Elephants.

The waterfalls were fun, but I have mixed feelings about elephant world. I witnessed a trainer pulling a young elephant’s ear to force him to squirt water on numerous tourist. The elephant didn’t seem to do this on his own will. They also forced elephants to stand in line for selfies with tourist as if it was a circus show. It didn’t seem very ethical to me at this point of the tour.
