Mae Taeng Elephant Park & Clinic: Bamboo Rafting

Bamboo rafting along Mae Taeng River. 

Taking my risk by bringing camera on the raft. 

Of course we have to wear safety jacket even though the water is very shallow, maybe up to knee length. There were 2 guides, one at front, and another one at the back. You can even do the rafting in front as posing for camera. 

Another photo of elephant ride along the Mae Taeng river.

Tree houses! 
Now who doesn't have fantasy of living in these? 
I mean, not for life, but at least one night, just for the experience.

Houses of the natives.

Some luxury chalets, as comparison with the natives one. 

pit stop for beverages.

Load these bamboo rafts on the truck, drive to the beginning of the route again and ready for the next batch of tourist.
