Traveling to Thailand Soon? Don't forget to get our Resource Pack - bit.ly/3uOsiG4

Please be careful when picking your Elephant Sanctuary and do your research before you go. Sadly, there only are very few true sanctuaries in Thailand. Places where tourists wash elephants are problematic. While elephants need/like to be washed every day, they need to cover themselves with dirt to protect from the sun. Places where tourists wash elephants probably have tours in the mornings and afternoons, so animals get washed several times a day. My family visited Wildlife Friends Foundation Thailand several times and love how they educate visitors, not just on elephants, but also on other Thai wildlife.

Thailand is the paradise and second home for all visitor !!!

Hi, greetings from South Korea! We met in the truck after the elephant tour, you remember?It was pleasure to talk with you about traveling, I really enjoyed your videos and hope things go well with your next journey! 😊

An nyeong! It was so nice meeting you two on this day😁🙌🏻. Thank you! We’d love to come visit you in Seoul soon! Safe travels and see you one day😁😁

really like this format and oh my gosh those elephants

Love that you don’t have any music that it’s just thie natural sounds. Easy…peaceful. ❤️ my daughter just got back from Australia/Thailand. She spent 2 1/2 weeks on her trip and she loves animals so the experience with the elephants being treated so wonderfully has really touched her heart. My favorite picture of her is in the water with the elephants!❤️

Hello!! Chiang Mai experience is good!! Elephants are infinite love❤ Thailand is a beautiful country. I have visited Thailand more than 20 times. I enjoyed the video. It’s nice to watch because it’s not a program that abuses elephants. It’s a great program to interact with elephants, such as feeding elephants, bathing elephants, and taking a walk. Thank you for posting the video💗🌸💗

You look so beautiful as usual. Wow! Never been to Thailand. Wanted go for the Womens Volleyball but was already full. I heard Thailand is so beautiful. And people are friendly. Hopefully will make it there soon. Especially after watching your video, it would be even better.

Most welcome to our country. Thanks for visiting and please come again and again.

Welcome to Thailand 🇹🇭 ❤🎉😊

I definitely like this type of video better than your lists and organise best ofs. to follow you two around on your normal day, showing your personalities and the fantastic areas you get into on your normal daily routines,is fantastic. You do still explain everything so well , your laughter and your easy personalities really comes through,happy travels. Can’t wait for your next vlog. Definitely make more like this one ✔️✔️

Thanks for sharing your elephant sanctuary experience with all of us, we got to see a very different kind of vlog thanks to your awesome channel. Hope you guys enjoyed this unique experience as much as we enjoyed watching this video. Thanks again for taking us along with you guys in these tours. Love & respect from Bangladesh

I enjoyed this style of video. It was really interesting seeing small clips of all there is to do there, as well as the shots of the scenery and the interactions with local people. The food also looked nice.

Hey guys, really enjoyed this style. Very natural. But then again you tend to be that way even in your other videos which is refreshing.

Hi, Rhett & Claire! Oh, this is a very refreshing change of video style & presentation. I loved it! This gives us a lot more depth, dimension and meaning behind compared to your usual video style. And it is also can be more enriching and engaging if there is a true cause behind it. In this case the topic is on animal abuse. Keep them coming! Keen to visit Chiang Mai, Thailand one fine day! Great content & story-telling! Thank you.

I had a crush on Jarunee the movie star when I was living in Thailand in 1982-1983

I loved this vlog! I think this format is a wonderful balance to your cinematic guides. It would also allow for fewer overlap of footage in your videos. I'd also like to see more vlogs about traveling, planning trips, and the boring practical details of being a nomad.

Love this video so much. It was raw,authentic, and so much information.

omg the elephants are adorable!

Yes yes and another yes. Keep on making more videos like this. You made me late for work this morning. 😅 Very good content. Claire I also thought the guy said "macaroni".

I find raw videos very entertaining!

Love the raw and quick video format.

I was there once. and after all day adventure, had a great Thai massage in the evening and amazing dinner and bar at night. One of the best day of my life.

If the fellow was not inches away from a toilet when he had to go … well, things got rather tricky rather quickly. Claire, you are always so plucky and full of life. When you told we viewers you had what you did, I almost fainted because one would never have guessed from how you came across, to what you had said, to all the activities in which you engage that you are suffering. I think you are amazing, Girl. And you gave a good nature to you, as well. 🙏

Chiang Mai is so overrated. For starters, if you arrive by train or bus, prepare for a little trip to the old town, because it's a bit away. Even the airport is closer to the old than the bus or train station, which is just ridiculous... Oh, speaking of the "old town", it's not exactly that old. Or pretty for that matter. After seing temples in Bangkok, Kanchanaburi and Ayutthaya, what Chiang Mai has to offer in this department is really disappointing. It's say there are two decent, worth visiting temples in Chiang Mai, the silver temple outside the old town, and the biggest one, literally in the center of the old town. Oh and the one at the monk's trail, in the forest. All these great attractions that people are talking about, they are not in the city of Chiang Mai, you need to get a taxi, tuk tuk, or rent a scooter to get there... The traffic, especially in the old town area is horrible, mostly because of the layout of the road. It's a good base, to travel around, but the city itself is really a waste of time. Maybe it's a nice place to live as am expat, beacuse compared to Bangkok it's cheaper, it's rather well maintained and clean, less hookers and homeless people. But from the tourist point if view I don't really understand why there's so much hype about this city. And if something worth visiting is an hour or more away, it's hardly fair to say, it's in Chiang Mai. It's like saying that London is nice because it's an hour by train from the sea. But it's no seaside. Hope I made my point.

@@RhettandClaire My comment wasn't as much about your video, and more of a city of Chiang Mai itself. I think people should know that you can really be disappointed with it, because of all this unjustified hype surrounding it... Chiang Rai is so much better in my opinion. Less touristy, more authentic, more Thai, better temples.

It's ok to ride horses and to make them do "unnatural" things but it's not ok to ride elephants or make them play football. How does that work?
