Honeymoon Highlight!

We booked the Elephant adventure and Ziplining two day tour. Both adventures were so much fun.

The elephant sanctuary we visited was beautiful and clean. How they took care of their elephants was represented by how well they fed their elephants and kept their facility clean. We fed the elephants, learned basic commands, walked and bathed theme. We even saw their 2 month old baby born on site. We truly enjoyed that experience...

The next day Ziplining was such a great adventure. Rambo was our main lead and made it so much fun for us. Safety came first but fun was a close second. The course was long compared to other Ziplining we have done around the world. They used top grade equipment and we felt safe throughout the entire course. Well done and will recommend to all who visit Thailand.
