We had a lovely day with the elephants and learnt a lot from our guide Bee. She was very friendly and relaxed! The lunch provided was delicious and all veggie friendly too.
Best of all we got to see genuinely happy elephants looked after by their Mahouts!

Great 2 days, amazed to walk alongside those old elephants with wonderful staff and elephant caretaker. So awesome to learn more and to help preparing the food to feed them too. Such an awesome experience and chance to have been there knowing those old elephants are living a good end of their long life.

This was one of the greatest experiences we had in Thailand. If you love or care for animals this is a must. It was great not only seeing but also feeling how great the elephants live here. The employees take such good care of the elephants while letting them roam free on the premises. We had been searching a long time for an ethical sanctuary - and this is truly it. We booked the full day tour and would recommend everyone to do the same - you get to spend more time observing the elephants and the extra time makes it more relaxing. Our guide Song was excellent. He was very knowledgeable, down to earth and fun. He did everything he could to make sure everyone had a good time.

Wonderful day with wonderful people. I really enjoyed the day. It was magical to see the elephants in the wild. Respect, kindness and benevolence can be felt in this sanctuary.

A Truly Ethical Elephant Sanctuary – An Unforgettable Experience
Spending two days and a night at this elephant sanctuary was absolutely incredible. If you’re looking for a truly ethical experience—one that focuses on the well-being of the elephants rather than tourist interactions—this is the place to go.
Unlike many other places that still allow touching, bathing, or close contact, this sanctuary prioritizes the elephants’ natural behaviors and needs. They have been rescued and are now cared for in the best way possible, given space, respect, and the freedom to just be elephants. It was amazing to observe them from a distance, see how they interact with each other, and learn about their individual stories.
Beyond the elephants, the people running this sanctuary are wonderful. They are passionate, kind, and deeply committed to their work. As a guest, you’re treated with warmth, great hospitality, and delicious food. Supporting a local business like this one means you’re directly contributing to a future where elephants can live peacefully, without exploitation.
If you care about animal welfare and want an experience that aligns with those values, this is the sanctuary to visit. I couldn’t recommend it more!
