We had an amazing experience here Sa was our tour guide and they were very informative and kind. You can tell how much all of the works here care for the elephants and how happy the animals are here. Would recommend following giants over any other elephant sanctuary. Truly an amazing ethical place for these elephants.

wow!! this is easily one of the most memorable experiences of my life. i cannot stress enough how captivating this sanctuary is. the elephants welfare and happiness are THE main priority here.
the team here takes pride and honour in it’s transformation into a fully ethical elephant sanctuary, and i highly recommend visiting and supporting such a remarkable place. my friend and i booked on for a full day tour, and we are both extremely thankful we chose this option. from start to finish it was full of beautiful, mesmerising experiences.
we started the day off with a walk through the forest, meeting all of the elephants whilst they wandered freely eating as much food as their trunks could grab. our tour guide nong was absolutely brilliant in regards to being very informative, engaging and caring towards the elephants as well as our tour group.
after our stroll throughout the forest we made a stop to create seed balls. this activity is where we prepare food, then plant it for when rainy season comes around. to make this activity even more fun we got to sling shot the seed balls into the forest where they then go on to develop into food for not only the elephants but other wildlife that live there.
after this, we went back to have lunch and cool down in the shade. the options for food available were unreal. they catered for any dietary requirements and had a selection of foods with meat, as well as vegetables. our tables had a refreshing watermelon drink and fruit freshly prepared for when we arrived there.
once our food had settled we met with our second tour guide called yunut he was our jungle hike guide who took us to a beautiful waterfall called khlong chak. i’ve truly never met somebody so astonishingly passionate about their job. he was a great laugh, and went above and beyond for us. without him we would’ve missed such a variety of interesting wildlife animals. he spotted insects that my friend and i wouldn’t of seen if we were looking at that singular spot all day!! yunut was truly a remarkable guide. thanks to him we got to see scorpions, snakes, bats, lizards, and so much more. my personal favourites were a black widow spider, plenty of tarantulas and a viper snake.
after the jungle adventure packed with fun we headed back to the main spot where drinks and ice creams were offered to us. we had another short cool down before heading to our last activity.
the last activity was so fascinating to witness and take part in. it consisted of watching the process of fibre get extracted from elephant poo and then turning it into paper. i’ve never heard of anything like this before, and to be a part of the process was so entertaining and exciting. as a souvenir we even got to take our paper home with us. with a quick goodbye to the elephants before they headed to their sleep shelter, our day was unfortunately over there.
i truly cannot recommend this sanctuary enough, all of the staff were so accommodating and lovely to be around. their care and support for the elephants was unlike anything i’d ever seen before. i can confidently say we will definitely be returning, and i will never stop talking about this day!!
thank you to every staff member and volunteer for their unconditional love towards elephants and the people who come to visit. you should be so proud of your work :)

This is the most wonderful experience. I went with friends yesterday and it was magical. May our guide was so knowledgeable and made sure everyone understood about all of the elephants, their background and how they are now living a happy protected life. Thank you May for making this unforgettable

Trip was amazing our guide knew every aminal and so much about the jungle. One tip I'd recommend is to ask the guide which days will be best for night tour as there is a lot of different conditions that could allow you to see more or less aminals. All in all I would recommend.

This trip was amazing. We saw so many different animals such as monkeys, vipers, snakes, frogs, and lizards. The waterfall with coffee was a perfect experience. The hike also trains you for jungle hiking.

Mooie jungle tour,
Kort naar de boeking kregen we contact met jaja via whatsapp. Daar kregen we het adres waar we moesten aan komen omdat we een huurauto hadden.
Uiteindelijk toen wij aan kwamen werden we ontvangen door een jonge collega van hem.
Jaja had blijkbaar een dubbele boeking. Maar hij deed het prima en onderweg kwamen we jaja tegen. Hij had zich verontschuldigen en zij ook dat het voor zijn collega goed was.
Misschien hadden we uiteindelijk wat minder gezien maar ik was tevreden want naar mijn gevoel deed hij het goed en hadden ook het een en ander gezien. Het was een mooie wandeling

Een lokale gids is een aanrader. Zonder hem hadden we veel van de bijzondere dietren en planten niet gezien. Een topervaring
