À quoi s'attendre

This tour is your backstage pass to the world of elephants in Thailand. The adventure kicks off at the elephant sanctuary with a refreshing welcome drink, setting the tone for the day ahead. After a short video on the history of domestic elephants, you'll learn about the camp's values and how it was founded. Plus, you'll catch a live feed from the Elephant Hospital – an emotional reminder of the care and commitment that goes into their well-being. Prasit, one of our expert local guides, says: "The elephant is Thailand's national animal and holds deep cultural significance - it symbolizes power, wisdom, and good fortune."Next, it's time to get hands-on. You'll roll up your sleeves, prepare nutritious food, and feed the elephants. Watch them as they enjoy their meals and observe their natural behaviours, including their playful mud baths – a vital part of their routine. The day continues with some creative fun. You'll try your hand at making eco-friendly mulberry paper from elephant dung – yes, it's as cool as it sounds – and take home a one-of-a-kind souvenir. Asian elephants can consume over 200 kilos of vegetation each day, so their dung is an abundant resource.Then, to wrap up, enjoy a live Thai cooking demo where chefs walk you through traditional dishes, before tucking into a buffet surrounded by lush nature and the peaceful presence of the elephants.

Well organised, from pickup being on time to the delivery of the experience at the Elephant Sanctuary. Milly was very informative and clearly cared passionately about the programme to protect elephants and provide much needed care

Amazing experience encountering elephants during their daily routine of feeding, mud bathing and walk. Got to see where they lived and how well they are cared for. Pick up each end was seamless and on time. My only negative would be the amount of time drivers spend interacting with their phone.

Love the time with the majestic Elephants. The guide at the Sanctuary was amazing and very knowledgeable. It us a shame you have stopped clients from bathing and give the Elephants a mud spa we missed this part very much. We did not have. TUI guide in our mini bus just a taxi driver who did not speak. We were in the taxi for 1 hour plus with no knowledge of our surroundings. Not acceptable ~ the same in the return journey. For this I will give a much lower score.
