Fresh from being recognised at the Tatler Thailand Spotlight Awards 2026, Anantara Chiang Mai Resort and Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort are highlighting Northern Delights, a curated four-night luxury journey combining the cultural richness of Chiang Mai with the extraordinary landscapes and immersive experiences of the Golden Triangle.

Designed for discerning travellers seeking both cultural discovery and meaningful adventure, the itinerary includes two nights at each award-winning destination, seamlessly connecting the riverside elegance of Chiang Mai with the jungle-clad hills of the Golden Triangle.

Set along the banks of the Mae Ping River, Anantara Chiang Mai Resort invites guests to uncover the timeless charm of the former Lanna Kingdom through elegant riverside living, exceptional gastronomy, and immersive local experiences. The journey then continues north to Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort, perched above the borders of Thailand, Laos and Myanmar, where travellers can embrace extraordinary adventures in one of Southeast Asia’s most fascinating landscapes.

The Northern Delights package includes a two-night stay at Anantara Chiang Mai Resort with daily breakfast, one afternoon tea for two and a choice of daily art and craft workshops, followed by a two-night all-inclusive Discovery stay at Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort. Guests can enjoy a daily choice of signature experiences including elephant encounters, Spice Spoons cooking classes, spa rituals, private yoga or Pilates sessions and visits to the renowned Hall of Opium Museum, alongside airport and inter-resort transfers for a seamless Northern Thailand journey.

The combined itinerary allows travellers to experience two distinct yet complementary sides of Northern Thailand, from the artistic heritage, riverside sophistication and culinary culture of Chiang Mai to the wilderness, elephant encounters and panoramic Mekong views of the Golden Triangle.

“Chiang Mai has long captivated travellers with its graceful blend of heritage, artistry and contemporary luxury,” said Tudsaporn Jaiboonchuen, General Manager of Anantara Chiang Mai Resort. “Through Northern Delights, guests can immerse themselves in the timeless beauty of Lanna culture while enjoying meaningful and authentic experiences along the banks of the Mae Ping River.”

Jean-Marc Pougnet, General Manager of Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort, added, “The Golden Triangle offers one of the most extraordinary landscapes in Southeast Asia, where nature, adventure and culture come together in unforgettable ways. This journey allows travellers to combine the elegance of Chiang Mai with immersive jungle experiences, from elephant encounters to Mekong discoveries, all within the signature luxury of Anantara.”

The package requires a minimum four-night stay, comprising at least two nights at each resort, with the flexibility to begin the journey at either destination.
