ELEPHANT ADVENTURE Anantara Golden Triangle Resort and Elephant Experiences

Perched on a ridge overlooking the hills of three countries; Thailand, Myanmar and Laos, the Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort is a window on breath-taking nature. The resort is known for it's on-site elephant camp and traditional Mahout village, offering guests the unique chance to walk among charming two-ton beauties and play with jumbo babies in a fun, educational and interactive environment. This is a thoroughly rewarding experience to help protect and appreciate the majestic elephants. Your journey begins at the airport, as you will be greeted and transported to the resort in style via longboat on the Mekong River. After, travel through lush jungle following an expert mahout on elephant back. In three distinct Elephant Camp Experiences, you’ll learn about their behaviour and biology, meander through romantic twilight jungle on elephant back and even help shower, feed, and give an ‘ele-check-up’. Delve into Chiang Rai's mysterious past at the Opium Museum, and learn about the areas' dark trading heritage in a private tour. Back at the resort, you'll savour the world’s most rare and expensive coffee; Black Ivory, in an aromatic coffee cupping experience. Taste and learn to prepare Thailand’s exquisite cuisine, in a Spice Spoons professional cookery class, and local market tour with Sala Mae Nam’s chef. Relax in the evenings with two luxurious 90-minute massages each in one of the five private, al-fresco treatment rooms overlooking the Mekong. Your treatments will utilise natural Thai remedies and indulgent Elemis products. Each meal is provided, but on one unforgettable evening you’ll enjoy a Dining by Design experience, allowing you to dine where you desire. Overlook the mighty Mekong, the verdant rice paddies or eat alongside baby elephants in the bamboo forests of the Elephant Camp, and toast to these magical memories on a sunset farewell.
