Perfecto poder ver a los elefantes comportarse como quieren y no como el turista desea, muy rica la comida y la caminata la pausa necesaria en un viaje a Tai

Our guide was super nice and could tell us a lot about the elephants there. You really noticed how well they know each one of them and the girls all really seemed at peace with there live there. Would 100% recommend going to ChangChill

We loved our experience at chang chill, it was beautiful to see rescued elephants foraging for food and being able to chill in their own space. We stayed for the afternoon session and made vitamin balls for the mahouts to feed the elephants, the elephants were so happy, it was beautiful! Our guide, Joom, was very knowledgeable and happy to answer our questions. Will definitely be back!

It was great time, we truly recommend this place. Mr. Big, the guide, was charming, helpful, with smile on his face all the time, very expressive and positive. The elephants look happy and free what was the most important for us. We could observe them in their natural situations and it was wonderful. Thank you, Mr. Big, boys taking care for elephants, people who prepared very good lunch and drinks for us, the driver and all Canadian ladies who accompanied us during this trip. ♥️♥️♥️

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to ChangChill Elephant Sanctuary. Our guide, Thong, did a wonderful job explaining how this sanctuary truly supports elephants living freely and naturally. We observed the elephants in their forest environment and learned about their daily lives without any touristy activities like touching or bathing. It was inspiring to see an ethical, sincere organization that genuinely cares for the well-being of former working elephants. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to learn about elephants in a respectful and responsible way.
