The elephant sanctuary was great and the elephants treated very well. The rafting was a blast, as was the Sticky Waterfall. I would highly recommend this tour, especially with Mr. K. 🙂”

Review of Chiang Mai’s Angel Land, Wat Ban Den, and Sticky Waterfall tour, with practical tips on costs, climbing, temples, and what to pack.

“My partner and I really enjoyed this trip, having included 3 locations in one go we thought it ideal to tick a few places off! All of the locations are stunning and the day is really well thought out. Our guide was a really friendly, cool guy who kept giving us lots of snippets of information making it more interesting. His English was fantastic and we really enjoyed his company. We had a smaller group on this day which made it more personal and very enjoyable! Would recommend this day to all!”
