Four Seasons Tented Camp
Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai & the Golden TriangleLocated amid a thick bamboo forest in the far north of Thailand, Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle overlooks the Ruak River and peers into Myanmar and Laos. This intimate camp offers a unique safari experience, from arrival on a longtail boat to looking after rescued elephants and jungle trekking.
There are 15 luxury tents and a two-bed Explorer’s Lodge, all designed by Bill Bensley. The rustic rooms feature handcrafted furniture, Northern Thai décor, large copper bathtubs, and outdoor rain showers. All rooms have private balconies, while deluxe tents include a private outdoor hot tub and the lodge has an infinity pool.
Nong Yao Restaurant serves Thai, Burmese, and Laotian cuisine, while the Wine Cellar offers tastings and private wine-pairing dinners.
Learn to be an elephant mahout, go jungle trekking, meet hill tribes, and explore the Golden Triangle. Relax in Burma Bar, which echoes the ambiance of 19th-century explorers’ bars.

“You know that Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle is going to be a very special place from the moment you arrive via a longtail boat along the Ruak River. The camp’s seclusion, along with the activities surrounding its rehabilitated elephants, is its main draw. It’s a great spot for nature lovers, escapists, and solitude seekers alike, offering sophistication, luxurious simplicity, and an intimate look into the world of the wildlife kingdom.”
