Beautiful! Great experience! Fun day

Really enjoyed the beautiful grounds and Erawan museum. It was a hoot driving the golf cart around the Ancient City. We brought our own “costumes” and took many amazing pictures during the day and then with the great lighting later towards evening.

Operator response

Interesting, but aging. CAUTION Maltreatment Elephants.

ABUSE: Elephants (old and very young) chained (1 meter long) to a post on concrete, movement impossible. They are there to be climbed by tourists, the cornak have spades (small very pointed deer) to guide them. The park itself is quite interesting, and some monuments are really to be seen (very beautiful). However, some places are completely abandoned. For example: broken bridges, severely dilapidated buildings, dirty, vegetation invading buildings, or closed for renovation. Other buildings are simply not finished. It must be said that the park is old. But the interview is quite patchy. Also know that it is better to go around by bike or possibly cart but flexible. But we'll have to rent this after the entrance. Simple bicycles that were previously free to move are no longer there. Having done it on foot, it's doable on the other hand we spent the whole day there,; we enjoyed it (we like to walk!!). Meal points are affordable. Small shows of 10 minutes are offered on certain points of the park. Also know that you have a chek point after the entrance to the park, keep tickets on hand.

Operator response

Merci pour votre retour détaillé. Nous sommes sincèrement désolés pour ce que vous décrivez concernant les éléphants : nous prenons toute suspicion de maltraitance très au sérieux et ne soutenons pas ce type de pratique. Nous transmettons votre signalement au site et à notre équipe qualité afin de vérifier et d’agir si nécessaire. Concernant Ancient City (Muang Boran) et Erawan Museum, merci aussi pour vos remarques sur l’entretien, la location vélo/voiturette et le checkpoint : nous allons améliorer les informations pratiques pour mieux préparer les voyageurs.

Sobering experience

The area is huge with a lot of sights, which give the impression of being somewhat old. You can rent a golf cart at the entrance, which allows you to move faster. Animals are also kept in the area, such as elephants, which can be fed for a fee. However, the animals are tied to one leg.

Operator response

Vielen Dank, dass Sie Ihre Erfahrung mit uns geteilt haben. Es tut uns leid zu hören, dass Ihr Besuch im Ancient City / Erawan Museum eher ernüchternd war und einige Bereiche einen „in die Jahre gekommenen“ Eindruck gemacht haben. Wir geben Ihr Feedback zur Instandhaltung an unseren Partner vor Ort weiter, damit die Anlagen besser gepflegt und der Gesamteindruck verbessert werden können. Dass Tiere, insbesondere Elefanten, im Areal gehalten und an einem Bein angebunden sind, verstehen wir als berechtigte Sorge. Wir nehmen Themen rund um Tierwohl sehr ernst und werden Ihre Rückmeldung zur Haltung und zum Füttern der Tiere mit dem Betreiber besprechen sowie prüfen, wie wir diese Informationen in unserer Beschreibung transparenter machen können, damit Gäste vorab eine bewusste Entscheidung treffen können.
