This place is absolutely wonderful.

You can tell the staff really look after and take care of the rescued elephants.

They educate and talk about elephants to you.

You get to feed, scrub and bath elephants.

The staff also cook nice Thai food for you as well.

I highly recommend this place because the elephants here are protected, well looked after and NOT FOR RIDING!

Just spent the morning feeding and bathing the most beautiful elephants. They are all rescued from the logging or entertainment industries and you can tell how much they are loved and respected. Seeing the elephants looked after so well made for an incredible day and memories my family and I will never forget.

One of the best experience ever. The elephants are so big yet such gentle animals. You could see the love around them and how happy they were! Riding the elephants was not allowed, which I think is the best thing ever. All of the elephants were rescued with such a sad history. We loved every part of it, feeding them, playing with mud, washing them, showering with them. I would highly recomment this experience to anyone that wants to see these beautiful animals. The staff were amazing people, always smiling and giving us information, and taking pictures with us. Overall it was a very positive experience and would love to come again.

Amazing experience!! SAY NO TO RIDING! This sanctuary takes care of elephants that come from circus, entertainment events and riding “adventures”. You’ll feed, shower and observe them in a peaceful retirement life. Have in mind that domestic elephants cannot survive in the wilderness and some of them are old enough, they need care every day! So perfect ETHIC way to meet and be with the elephants! Staff is really nice and elephants are just adorable!

If you’re looking for an elephant sanctuary that actually care and look after elephants, look no further. We visited this place 2 days in a row. First day we were a bit late and couldn’t wash the elephants but we fed them and it was absolutely beautiful so we booked to wash the elephants the next day. We got to feed them, had a mud bath with them and then showered with them. After that we had a cooking tutorial by Teddy, we ate beautiful Thai food and our host Uncle Chow, big shout out to Uncle Chow!!!!! He made us laugh and he is very passionate about the elephants, all the staff really care about the well-being of their beautiful elephants who were all rescued from abuse. It’s also good they don’t let you ride the elephants, emphasising that they genuinely care. Would definitely come back, Uncle Chow and Teddy are the best!!!!!!

Amazing experience. It was only me and my wife and one other couple. Pricier than some other tours I've seen but this one lets you feed and bathe with the elephants whereas some others only let you feed them. The buffet lunch was awesome. We got a free tote bag at the end. Definitely recommend the elephant jungle sanctuary.

Such a wonderful experience. Totally worth it! Before coming I was really worried about how they treat the elephants at this type of places but since I came in I just felt totally relieved. They have so much love and respect for the elephants and it shows. Everything depends on the elephants and not at any moment they are obligated to do something, most of times we were just around them. Letting them be. What made the whole experience even better, Kevin and Thunder were such amazing hosts, they were very informative and funny as well. Last but not least, caretakers and kitchen staff also great.
There’s also a photographer (handsome boy) that takes photos of everyone while doing the activities. Thank you guys very much for the very valuable work you do, you are truly making the world a better place to live in!
