Programme Details

Be picked up at either 08:00 or 13:00. Enjoy a magical morning or afternoon mingling with rehabilitated Asian elephants at the Phuket Elephant Sanctuary. This scenic slice of paradise serves as both a sanctuary and home for elephants and forest wildlife. The visit begins with a pleasant ride down a village lane to the grounds of the sanctuary, where you will arrive at the Tree Top Reception and Observation Platform.

You will have the opportunity to meet some of the elephants, learn about their individual stories, and understand why they need protection. Following this, we venture into the jungle to find the elephants and observe their natural behavior as they engage in daily activities such as foraging, bathing, and playing in one of the three lagoons.

You will also have an opportunity to visit Phuket’s first elephant hospital, which provides professional veterinary care for 13 resident elephants and others from across Southern Thailand.

For animal lovers who value interactions based on respect and adoration, this is one of Thailand's most heartwarming and memorable experiences. It offers exceptional insight into the remarkable nature of elephants.

A delicious vegetarian Thai buffet lunch or dinner will be served at the Tree Top Observation Platform, where you can rest, relax, and enjoy the tranquility and beauty of the sanctuary. (L/D)
