Oat and Ding were fabulous. We had an amazing day! The market was most interesting. Oat bought some mango and rose apple for us to try. The elephant sanctuary was so much fun. Feeding, mudding, bathing, walking. Then off to the restaurant where we made Tom Yum soup and ate enough for a week! We felt full and sleepy for our bamboo raft ride. The coffee from bamboo cups woke us up. Overall a perfect day

Once in a lifetime experience, as said by my husband. We loved the canoe trip. It was so serene, relaxing and transported us to a different land. Also the caves. The team managing our trip was super cooperative, systematic and very polite and sweet.

We saw various birds, snakes and monkeys and our canoeist was very quick to spot them and point them out to us. We also visited the Tsunami memorial museum which was sobering but beautifully done.

Absolutely amazing experience - I was slightly worried beforehand but the elephants were treated so well and were so happy

Amazing experience! Our host was Emma and she was amazing!
