My mother (in her 50s) and I (18-year-old son) participated. They picked us up from the hotel in a songthaew (smaller than the ones that run around town). We arrived after about an hour's drive from the old town. The schedule said we would take a 30-40 minute walk through the jungle, but we reached the river in about 5 minutes. There, we thoroughly enjoyed playing in the water with the elephants and getting close to them. If you hand your smartphone to the staff, they will take plenty of photos for you. It was such a fun and wonderful experience that we would love to visit again.
