After lunch, embark on a guided trek to a traditional Karen village, where our own elephants roam freely. Walking with these majestic creatures in their natural environment is not just an activity but a privilege. The day concludes with a traditional Thai dinner prepared by your host family, followed by an evening spent around a fire, sharing stories under the stars.
Day Two: Village Life and Seasonal Activities Wake up to a serene village morning and enjoy breakfast on the big wooden balcony on the edge of the mountains. The day is rich with activities that offer a glimpse into the daily life of the Karen people. You can partake in traditional weaving, try your hand at cooking Thai dishes in a hollow bamboo, or stroll through the rice fields. Depending on the season, you might also have the opportunity to learn about and participate in coffee cultivation, a unique aspect of agriculture in the village. Lunch features another round of delicious, home-cooked fare, after which the afternoon can be spent either continuing your exploration of village crafts or simply relaxing with the elephants. Enjoy another locally prepared dinner, immersing yourself fully in the cultural and culinary traditions of the community. 3 Day / 2 Night- Signature Cultural Immersion & Wildlife Encounter
