Came to see this video after seeing Zeenunew visited. Absolutely stunning and hope to visit one day with my husband.
The way this was shot and produced is just so beautiful that by the time it got to the elephants, I was moved to tears. Thank you for such amazing work. Incredible. Such love.
Elephants Don’t Give Rides or Perform Tricks Willingly
Elephants only allow people to ride them when constantly threatened with physical violence and psychological punishment. They’re typically beaten into submission with bullhooks-sharp steel-tipped weapons resembling fireplace pokers-and mahouts (trainers) always have one in hand.
To train baby elephants to be subservient in the tourism industry, they’re often forcibly separated from their mothers, tied down and immobilized with ropes, and beaten mercilessly, sometimes for days on end. During these spirit-breaking sessions, some of them die.
Those who survive are forced to live the rest of their lives in servitude, lugging tourists around-sometimes for hours on end, or even when they’re exhausted or injured
In all your journeys, she's never smiled so much as here. Well done, Doctor. Thank you for sharing this incredible location.
Wow! Beautiful experience, the elephants encounter is incredible. They seem calm, not stressed and loved. Really nice to rescue those elephants and give them a second chance. This is in very good place on my bucket list! Can’t wait for Soneva Kiri next week. Stay safe out of the nasty virus

"They seem" gtfoh. they have been tortured and that's the only way they appear docile. they live under constant threat and fear. elephants are wild animals that don't want nasty ass humans near them. what is wrong with everyone?
@@bbuck1bbuck1then do something about it besides talking. It's easy to complain on a travel video and takes little effort. If you hate what's happening, then change it like starting your own organization to rescue these elephants, call the hotel to discuss alternatives, join several groups who peacefully seek animal safety solutions.
Every time I watch your videos. It takes me to the experirnces of that respective places. Thank you and a salute to your hardwork done for the video purpose.
Such a beautiful, and relaxing resort! I appreciate how much shade there was. I never thought of a jungle as being cozy, but this definitely was. Loved it!
sometimes come tears on my face when I see your clips and the music in the background...love it***
Same here. Just FAB! Decided to go after the covid-19 hype/crazyness is back to normal (never will be) as of flying. Would travel today if possible. Peace -
ZeeNunew brought me here. Lovely place indeed 💕
Stayed here 5 days on our honeymoon in feb 2020, probably one if not the most unique hotel we have ever experienced, video brings back a lot of joyful memories.
This video brought me so much unexpected joy. My heart was full when the elephants bathed in the river I actually cried. Fantastic!❤❤
Me too. I also cry like a river. It is like the release.

I love the informal look and the beauty of the resort.
Who doesn't love Elephants?

I love how each of your videos compel me to add new locations on my bucket list!❤️
Thank you for sharing your experience in such a beautiful location. For commenters who are so upset about the treatment of the elephants, it's easy to complain anonymously in a travel video comment section. It takes little to no effort. If you actually want change, then you'll do it...start your own organization to help rescue animals, be active in multiple established organizations in a peaceful way beyond just donating and signing petitions, calling the hotel to request a discussion on alternative solutions to this form of leisure activity, etc.
Your videos are changing the way one perceives the idea of travel and vacation. Thank you 🙏
When I watch some other travel videos, I leave a comment saying the person filming it should follow the example of The Luxury Travel Expert and film the resort/flight and not themselves.
I do the same thing...best vacation video's are here!
I immediately turn off videos where the host jumps into the video trying to be the star. These are some of the best travel videos I've seen.
Such a relaxing looking place, a great place to be at to escape this chaotic world.
You would love the one he did at Amazoe, for real, I'm sure you'll love... It's like the chaos doesn't exist there... It's quite peaceful and lovely. 🍀🌳🌱
By the time it got to the elephants we were moved to tears! Unbelievable! Life is heaven!
can i have ur instagram
@@mrcorbel My Instagram?
Send me yours and I’ll do you
@@LadyKwenAdi yeah 🙌 🙏🙏
There are so many people with your 😀
It's nice that you were able to share this beautiful experience with someone.
I was disturbed at the sight of the young lady riding the elephant. If anyone wants to support elephant rescue, I suggest looking into the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust in Nairobi, Kenya which has been doing so for 40+ years. (Plenty of TH-cam videos on them). Their work is outstanding and if you’re in South Africa, you can even visit them. I highly recommend watching a video about them. You’re heart will melt and you’re perception changed. Other than my opening opinion, another great presentation 👍🏻

Thank you for making and posting this beautiful video. Feel so relaxed after watching 😊😏
An awesome experience! Very nice. Music was spot on. I rather like the smaller places vs huge inner city hotels. Their mission is most admirable.
Absolutely incredible place. This is definitely on the list, and what an amazing experience. Hope u had a fantastic time sir
What a beautiful experience ! Especially the elephants . Lucky people Thanks for sharing .
I've been long waiting for video about this place. Thanks!
Oh. Now this place really caught my eye, this looks amazing.
The height of beauty, tranquility and luxury. Magnificent as always! We stayed at many Four Seasons hotels as a flight attendant but I never did something like this ……
A very beautiful place! Thank you for sharing the world with me!
I'm worried your beautiful videos might be delayed due to coronavirus. Watching it on Saturday evening is my relaxing time of the week. Wish you well, and I hope you have plenty amount of clips to be uploaded in your cam :)
Now is not the time to go on vacations. The virus can easily travel from one country to another by plane and hop from one person to another on different continents. We'll see his videos again once this is over. Hopefully sooner rather than later.
AvariceUntied I believe he means if he has any preexisting clips he can upload to TH-cam so he can stil get content out
@@vivianestevez360 Any idea how long his videos are delayed? The resort look pretty deserted already.
@@vivianestevez360 Yes he can do that. But since he's a doctor he might be quite busy right now.
magnetospin No idea, seeing as this is a very exclusive and expensive resort, that may explain the lack of guests
so relaxing, no rush! enjoy every second in your video! your channel will be big! 🙌🏻
You DO love your eggs benedict :) always part of your breakfast.
The elephants were too cute! When she was drinking water, I was fawning over it. This "camp" is a must-visit.
Great video!
Continue to shoot and delight us with quality content! Thank you very much!
love all your content! so inspire! 🙌🏻
Thank you for sharing this lovely place and spirit with us. Love the elephants. :)
Place is fantastic no doubt plus elephants also looking so healthy. Food items are also so colorful!!!!!
Unique Fantastic and as usual brilliantly captured .. You bring light to these worrying times
Such beautiful scenery
I enjoy your video trip on cambodian and thailand. It is a joy to watch your video. 2 thumbs up!
A taste of paradise! The sound of nature and breathtaking landscapes in this crazy moment on earth, means that a brand new day is expecting for us... Elephants are the most perfect creation among animals. They mesmerize me. Enjoying that energy from elephants is simply a magical contact. Thanks for take me to a trip with elephants.
And please when travelling take care. Attention to corona virus. Best wishes

Place of dreams ♥️
Amazing!
Ein wunderschöner Ort zum Träumen, um zur Ruhe zu kommen und ich finde es wundervoll zu sehen, wie sehr die Natur respektiert und erhalten bleibt. Normalerweise mag ich es nicht, wenn auf Elefanten geritten wird. Allerdings hab ich bei Ihnen den Eindruck, das es den lieben grauen Riesen sehr gut geht und glücklicherweise bekommen sie ja auch nicht diesen grässlichen Sitz auf ihren Körper geschnallt!
Respekt und Anerkennung, Sie haben einen traumhaft schönen Platz erschaffen!

OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!!! MAGICAL.✨💫 The elephants part is so spiritual. 🥰😇✨
Thank you for your video! It made my day!
Looks great, still wouldn't ever ride an elephant though, regardles of how well they are treated.
would you ride horse or snowdog?
@@cillajendar4378 Horses aren't broken in like elephants?
The hotel emailed me a few days ago, they no longer offer the elephant rides.

🐘🐘🐘❤️🙏
Stay safe&your family 🤗🙏
Very beautiful and informative video, thank you very much for uploading. We are also planning to stay there.
I loved this video, what a magical resort. Amazed your friend never ended up in the river when she was on the elephant!! Looking forward to next week at Soneva.
Everything is better when u have money😉😂. That’s because I like ur videos. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
People who.think money make their happiness.are no difference from a person paying for a prostitute and confuse the outcome with love
We love Chiang Rai and his surroundings are very beautiful. Been there many times because we have a Belgian friend living there who showed us the beautiful nature and temples where you will not find a "farang" :-) Keep to your vlogs coming!
♥The LOVELIEST video The Luxury Travel Expert has ever posted. THANK YOU ♥
Wow, thank you!
I am so addicted to your videos
Now this is my idea of tent camping! Really roughing it. :D
Since I have been following your vlog for ages, this is my first comment and this clip is extremely awesome and Im so proud of my hometown, which is Chiang Saen. I hope you like our country and county.
You are blessed to be able to have such beauty.
Thank you
@@KhonAdid :)
What a Fabulous experience
Spectacular !!!
The place very calm...
That looks a magical place! Plus with the Elephants too! In the early sixties my sister got to know an elephant at London Zoo, we did not go back for at least 8 years! My sister called his name out and it looked around and it came walking over straight away! This is one place I would love to go to! Just delightful to watch thank you!
What a magical story, thanks for sharing.
@@magical5d thank you kindly!
@@magical5d thank you, you see my mum passed away and I have all these magical memories we all had together! My sister is alive but our mum died aged 95. I lived with her you see, so it was difficult times for me! Sigh

Who want to have peace times this is the right place ❤️👍
Enjoyed the review as usual Not sure it would be easy to get around the camp if you had a mobility problem however. I am writing off my own travel plans for 2020 due to the obvious global health issues. Fortunately I can always re-watch some of your archived videos which will hopefully keep me going until next year.
It's nice to travel in class and luxury. The travel expert in a wealthy world traveler.

Thank you for the great content! We already spent hours watching your videos. They are beautiful, relaxing and also offer good information. Your choice of music is also excellent. Even thou we will not be able to visit most of these places ourself, we always enjoy watching. Thanks for taking us with you...

Poor elephants :( but great hotel
You called the Land Rovers "Jeeps", now that is below the belt. Love the elephants though. A nice resort, though not on the partners bucket list, but very pleased to have see the resort.

Hotel nya keren mirip suasana film Thai jaman dulu ada paviliun dipinggir kali
awesome❤️❤️❤️
I don't know if it already came up or not, but I just wanna mention something that came to my attention: You refer to off-road vehicles as Jeep, which is not correct, as long as the vehicle is not actually a Jeep. Jeep is a US manufacturer of off-road vehicles, like the Jeep Wrangler. In this particular video (13:11) the vehicle you refer to as Jeep is actually a Land Rover Defender, Land Rover being the name of the British manufacturer. Jeep has come a long way and established itself as a Brand which is synonymous for off-road vehicles, that's why it is sometimes used in that way, but not on purpose. But there are other brands which are on the same level as Jeep, namely Land Rover. Just wanted to mention that. Stay safe and enjoy your trips. I am always looking forward to your videos :-)
The Elephants
Precioso vidio para ir de vacaciones y de relax🙏🌻😘💖
So beautiful! Your video is so soothing like nothing is happening in the world despite all the outbreaks right now. I live in U.S and hope everything will go back to normal soon. How is this traveling possible for you? There are so many countries are restricting people from entering. Many airlines have shut down or canceled flights. How did you do it?
Alline Lee i visited Thailand before the pandemic
very a nice video.
It is still ok to do elephant riding; especially when it is discouraged by many animal rights that I have read during my travels.. ?
And they carry a bull hook
No, never do activities with elephants. Please.
Riding bareback like that is fine.
Then don't ride them...
Why is it discouraged? I only witnessed lovely interaction between men and the majestic animal. I would love to experience that one day.
Please be safe and healthy
The hotel conserve elephants, but uses lots of elephant tusks on its furnitures
That is so ironic.
erm just to let u know, the elephant tusks are removed from the elephants itself to prevent poachers from hunting down elephants. please listen to urself before u comment
