Wir wurden freundlich empfangen und während des ganzen Spaziergang sehr respektvoll mit den Tieren zusammengeführt. Es fühlte sich wirklich sehr echt an und war eine berührende Erfahrung. Wir alle können beim Reisen etwas ändern und die Welt etwas besser gestalten, indem wir genau wählen, wie wir uns „unterhalten“ lassen.

A great little Sanctuary up the hill from Patong. Small groups only, no more than 15 people. Our group was 10 people. Knowledgeable keepers, who really care for the Elephants Each Elephant has there own keeper. We prepared food for them and watched them forage in the forest and got to walk with them and feed them. The kids asked if they could go back the next day.

bellissima esperienza, la nostra guida (May) ci ha accompagnato a vedere tutti gli elefanti e ci ha fatto tantissime foto insieme, gli abbiamo dato da mangiare e li abbiamo accarezzati, in più ci ha spiegato tutto riguardo la loro vita e la loro routine

We had a truly special experience at the Ethnical Elephant Village in Patong. From the moment we arrived, everything felt well-organized and respectful toward the elephants. What impressed us the most was how well the elephants are treated – they looked healthy, happy, and well cared for. It was clear that the staff genuinely care about their wellbeing. The team was friendly, professional, and happy to share information about the elephants and their stories. Interacting with these incredible animals in such an ethical and natural environment made the experience unforgettable.

Die Aktivität war wirklich atemberaubend. Der Ausflug zu den Elefanten war wirklich sehr schön. Wir durften die Elefanten füttern, das Essen haben wir selber vorbereitet. Die Elefanten leben im freien und sind sehr glücklich.

Do the full tour This tour was amazing! We were able to get up close and feed the elephants. Our guide May was fantastic. Several in our group did the first hour and left. This is a great option if you are short on time. We opted for the trek and lunch. It was my husband, me the guide and our own personal elephant. We walked and learned more about the elephants and were able to spend quality time. Then we were put on motor bikes which was not counted on but very fun and taken to a little local place for a very delicious lunch. Do the combo but book early in the morning. It gets hot!

Absolutely brilliant, you wont be disappointed Absolutely brilliant. We were very nervous at first but then we were reassured by our guide and we could get up real close to feed and touch the elephants. We took our 3 year old daughter and was very comfortable with this tour.

Amazing and insightful visit. An amazing morning learning all about the sanctuary and the fantastic work they do protecting and caring for the elephants. The Guide was insightful and went out of his way to talk through the work they do and how they care for the animals. It was great to be able to prepare their food and experience them close up. Absolutely worth the visit as it was a very special experience.

The sanctuary place is... The sanctuary place is not the one we thought about, it’s quite new, just 11 months, made for tourists around patong area. Though elephants are lovely to see. They are used to tourists around.

Very nice Elephant Sanctuary for rescued elephants and physically challenging ATV-Ride for the hardcore Positive: I just really loved Elephant Hill. Unfortunately I had only had 30 minutes, but at least it was a private tour with a very kind guide and I could pet three rescued elephants, who were really cheeky and hungry. I could also make some medicine bananas and look at the beautiful view. After that I was taken to the ATV- trip which is in another location. I was put with a German "Boygroup" together and the three guides took us to the training place first. It is really bumpy, full with roots and holes so you need to have very good handling on your quad. As the instructor see that we can manage we went for a big circle in the jungle for an hour. It was really an experience, was fun. Negative: Be prepared to pay your fee at the Elephant Hill cash or card (more than 2000 Baht) - so better when you have cash with you. If you need to pay card, know that the keyboard has a different number order as you used to, that's why get your phone out if you do your PIN codes automatically. In other case you will enter your PIN code wrong. It was really well coordinated and organized, but I would have appreciated an hour at least with the elephants and maybe therefore half an hour with the ATVs. I love quadriding, I did it a couple of times and I also can ride a smaller motorcycle, but still it was really physically challenging. I am sure, that the instructors have a very keen eye, which tourist how much capable of, but still, have your own judgment and don't take risks! You cannot compare Western couch Potato to a very agile thai person!

Elephants on a very steep hill. We booked a half day visit to this park. There are a few points that were not mentioned prior to coming/booking that are essential. 1. The park is actually situated on an incredibly steep hill so if you have young children elderly or older people it's a no go. 2. The guide was very young could hardly speak any English so communication was very difficult. 3. We had to ask all the questions regarding the Elephants so like getting blood out of a stone. Not what you'd expect from a guide. 4. Bring mossy spray because they take you into the forest area where you get bitten to death. 5. There are only 5 elephants situated on 3 different levels. 6. The Elephants were fantastic and feeding them was magical..... Overview we had a good day considering but would i have booked it knowing what I now know or recommend it to others I'm sorry to say no I wouldn't.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a fantastic time on this ethical elephant tour. The 45 minute duration was spot on for our young children, keeping them engaged the whole time without getting tired. We started by preparing natural food for the elephants, which was a great educational touch, followed by feeding and a gentle walk alongside them. It’s clear that the welfare of the animals is the top priority here. They seem very well cared for and relaxed. A must do if you want a respectful and kid friendly animal experience.

Elephants First We throughly enjoyed this experience. Great way to see elephants in their habitat. Chichi was an excellent tour guide and as expected very knowledgable about the elephants. He was also very accommodating to our friend who could not climb up the hill. Highly recommend this if you prefer to go where the elephant comes first.

Beautiful experience at this ethical sanctuary….. Booked a 1 hour excursion to feed and walk with the elephants. This excursion was even better than we hoped for. Staff is extremely friendly, polite and knowledgeable. They offer free bottled water to their guests and truly care that you have an amazing experience. Everyone in our group got to make the elephants their snack and hand feed all of the elephants. Plenty of time for everyone to get the photos they want, and the staff are excellent at offering to take photos as well. You can tell that the elephants are very happy, loved and well cared for. They have 100 Acres to roam freely and there is no riding or bathing of the elephants here. Truly a beautiful experience of a lifetime.

Fantastic sanctuary We were picked up from our hotel on time by a very friendly driver who carried us to the elephant sanctuary.Upon arrival we were greeted by a lovely young lady who was very happy and cheerful. Meeting the elephants was fantastic and you could see the relationship between them and the keepers was solid.We got to feed and walk with them in the 100 acre site they live in.I would highly recommend this particular sanctuary to anybody wanting to do 1 and I’ll definately be back.

Dream come true! Group of women squeezed this into our morning the day we were leaving Phuket. The experience was amazing and something none of us will ever forget. Our guide was amazing, easy to talk with, and answered all our questions. We worried doing this tour being that most places don’t have the best reviews or treatment of the animals but this was not the case here. The elephants roamed freely, they seemed comfortable and moved at their own pace, which was nice. Highly recommend this trip! Making our lunch was delicious and nice touch to this already unforgettable experience.
