WHY CHIANGMAI ELEPHANT CARE?
Natural Environment
CMEC is located in a peaceful natural area of Mae Taeng, surrounded by trees, hills, fresh air, and open space. This kind of environment is much better for elephants than a busy city area because elephants need calm surroundings and room to move.
Access to Water
The location has access to natural water sources, which are important for elephants to drink, cool down, and play naturally. Water also helps support daily elephant care, cleaning, and food preparation.
Enough Space for Movement
Elephants are large animals that need space to walk, explore, and behave naturally. CMEC’s location gives them more freedom compared with small or crowded tourism areas.
Away from Heavy Traffic and Noise
Mae Taeng is away from the busy center of Chiang Mai, so the elephants are less exposed to traffic, loud noise, and pollution. A quieter environment helps reduce stress and supports better elephant well-being.

Fabulous experience carried out by incredibly friendly and personal team. A mesmerising day’s activity.
We had the amazingly friendly and chatty Sem (fluent in English) pick us up from where we were staying and take us to the elephant jungle for an unparalleled hands on, personal, and immersive tour. We fed and wandered around with the elephants and it was simply phenomenal.
Following this we had a delicious meal including fruit we had spied in the jungle and the rice grown from the very paddies we were sitting by.
After lunch we then went rafting which was terrific fun. It struck the perfect blend between safe and thrilling. Finally we experienced the Mae Kong waterfall which was our first in Chiangmai area (and I imagine may well be our best).
If you’re looking for a fun interactive, friendly, hands on and personal experience these are your guys - highlight of our trip!!!
Perfect day
5 star absolutely. We were with Sem who speaks great English and was very helpful and fun all day.😀
Excellent trip, beautiful location, well looked after elephants
We had such a lovely time with Chiang Mai elephant care! Our guide was very helpful and knowledgeable on everything to do with the elephants.
We loved our time at the sanctuary, the elephants look well cared for, with lots of room to roam around the jungle.
The transport was modern, clean and air conditioned. They were very punctual in picking us up from our accomodation!
I’d have no hesitation in recommending this tour to a friend or family member!
