Description

Visit Phuket Elephant Sanctuary, Phuket’s first ethical elephant sanctuary and a pioneer in ethical elephant tourism since 2016. After a scenic drive through a local village, you will arrive at the Tree Top Lounge, where you can enjoy complimentary snacks and beverages. Here, you’ll watch an educational video that introduces you to the elephants and explains why their protection is so important. Next, you’ll have the chance to feed some of the elephants their daily baskets of fruits. Your tour guide will then lead you into the sanctuary, where you’ll explore Thailand’s longest canopy walkway and walk along natural trails to locate the elephants. As you observe them foraging and bathing freely, your guide will share each elephant’s unique story. By maintaining a safe and respectful distance, you’ll witness the elephants’ natural behaviors—whether they are bathing, playing in ponds and rivers, or socializing with one another. At the end of the program, a delicious vegetarian Thai meal will be waiting for you.
