--- Fullday program ---
An ethical, up-close experience with elephants is wonderful and a 'once in a life time' fantastic day out, but best of all it will leave you with a parting gift of lasting memories that you will treasure forever. Please note: All our timings are approximate as we will never force any elephant to stick to a time schedule! If they want to stop to rummage for food or want to play a little longer in the river that's fine by us and we hope it will be fine for you too! We only have one arrival of visitors a day with a maximum of 8 people, sometimes less, which means you will get plenty of time to relax and enjoy your time with the elephants and hopefully feel that it is a very personal, special and unrushed experience.

Elephant and Water Buffalo Experience
------------------------------------------------
The Asian water Buffalo has been listed as Endangered in the IUCN Red List since 1986, as the remaining population totals less than 4,000. A population decline of at least 50% over the last three generations (24–30 years) is projected to continue. The global population has been estimated at 3,400 individuals, of which 3,100 (91%) live in India.
Help us, help them.
During our Asian elephant and water buffalo experience, You will trek 1 and a half hours through the beautiful Khun Khan National Park, enjoying the beautiful views surrounding you in the rainforest where you will come to see the water buffalo's in their natural environment, learn about them and feed them special salt in bamboo and rice straws. After your interaction with the buffalo's, you will trek through the forest again to meet our majestic elephants, you will begin to make special herbal medicine for the elephants, learn about them, feed them and bath them in the river.
Finally after saying goodbye to the elephants you will trek through a coffee plantation to a local Karen Hilltribe village.
Once here we will prepare to head back to Chiang Mai City arriving back at your hotel around 6:00 pm.
Our goal for this program is to get enough visitors to buy 1 to 2 beautiful water buffalos a year, to keep them free in our rain forest and hopefully in the future help to bring the water buffalo population up in Thailand.
We can only achieve this through education and support from visitors like you!
