Review of Chiang Mai’s 4-in-1 tour with Sticky Waterfall, ethical elephants, Karen village, and white-water or bamboo rafting.

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. 🙂”
