Experience the authentic side of Chiang Mai!
Start with a scenic trek to Tard Mok Waterfall, followed by a homemade lunch at our cozy jungle base camp. Then, float down the lifeblood river of a Northern Thai village on the first and only river tubing experience in Chiang Mai.
With a local guide who has lived here all his life, observe elephants and water buffalo bathing naturally—an ethical, non-intrusive way to see these animals. Your guide, a former elephant caretaker, shares insider knowledge about these gentle giants.
Discover Saa Gee Waterfall, a hidden gem rarely visited by travelers, and soak in the quiet beauty of Chiang Mai’s countryside. End the day with hot tea and snacks before heading back.
Note: Wildlife sightings are not guaranteed, as animals roam freely.
A true local adventure blending nature, culture, and exploration.
