Northern Thailand Tuk Tuk Adventure

The perfect day trip for anyone in Chiang Mai who wants to witness authentic rural life, get up close and personal with elephants, try some bamboo rafting and drive your very own Tuk Tuk! Begin your Tuk Tuk driving training upon arrival at Mae Wang. The Tuk Tuks are surprisingly easy to master and once you're confident, you'll head out with the rest of the group on narrow rural roads winding through farming villages in a convoy. Visit an ethical elephant home where you will have the opportunity to interact with these incredible animals and after lunch, walk with the mahouts to the river to help wash the elephants - a fantastic experience! Later on, float lazily along the river on a traditional bamboo raft until it's time to jump back into your Tuk Tuk and wind your way back down the valley. Enjoy your last moments behind the wheel as the road curves gently down into the valley, and be sure to have your camera ready to catch the surprised looks of the locals when they see you pull up in your very own Tuk Tuk!
