Ein Morgen mit den Elefanten im Phuket Elephant Sanctuary
Beschreibung
Phuket Elephant Sanctuary ist das erste ethische Elefantenschutzgebiet in Phuket, in dem Elefanten auf 30 Hektar üppigem, tropischem Land, das an den Khao Phra Thaeo Nationalpark im Nordosten Phukets grenzt, frei herumstreifen, baden und sozialisieren. Wir kaufen alle geretteten Elefanten, um sicherzustellen, dass Phuket Elephant Sanctuary ihre endgültige Heimat ist, und wir bieten professionelle tierärztliche Versorgung für alte und verletzte Elefanten. Mit Ihrem Besuch unterstützen Sie einen nachhaltigen, ethischen und mitfühlenden Ansatz im Elefantentourismus, in dem Elefanten die Freiheit haben, natürlich zu leben. National Geographic, Lonely Planet und The Guardian haben unseren ethischen Ansatz unterstützt.

Reiseverlauf
Ein Morgen mit den Elefanten ist ein augenöffnendes und inspirierendes Erlebnis. Nach einer malerischen Fahrt entlang eines lokalen Dorfes erreichen Sie Phuket Elephant Sanctuary, einen malerischen Dschungel mit Teichen, weiten offenen Feldern und Hängen, in denen die Elefanten herumstreifen können. Ihr Besuch beginnt in unserer Tree Top Lounge, wo wir Ihnen ein Präsentations- und Schulungsvideo zeigen, um Sie auf Ihre Begegnung mit den Elefanten vorzubereiten und Ihnen zu zeigen, warum sie geschützt werden müssen. Wir folgen ihnen dann hinunter in den Dschungel. Indem sie einen sicheren Abstand halten und sie von unseren Beobachtungssalas aus beobachten, haben die Elefanten die Freiheit, ihr natürliches Verhalten auszudrücken, vom Baden und Spielen in unserem Teich bis hin zur Geselligkeit miteinander. Das Programm endet mit einem köstlichen thailändischen vegetarischen Essen.

A beautiful, peaceful place to visit and experience the amazing work that is done with the rescue elephants. Rudi our guide was excellent.
Fantastic experience learning about the elephants in Thailand and how this special sanctuary is looking after them
Had a memorable experience visiting Phuket Elephant Sanctuary. It was great seeing all of the beautiful elephants and knowing that my visit will help provide for their care. Our guide did a wonderful job giving details on the different backgrounds and personalities of the elephants. This tour was certainly a highlight of my vacation.
This experience was well worth the money to see this beautiful creatures up close while knowing they are being treated ethically. We learned so much! Rudi was an excellent tour guide and the service from start to finish from all was warm and thoughtful.
Wow. What can I say, this tour is so worth the money. It was such a great experience and our tour guide Rudi was amazing. If you're lucky enough to get Rudi then you are all set. Would do this again for sure the way they care and are passionate about elephants is phenomenal. It's not a job for them it's a passion. Thank you so so much fir sharing them with us... our group also had a great bunch of people. Do yourself a favour and do this tour when you're in Thailand.
Absolutely beautiful. I am happy to support this ethical sanctuary so they can continue their good work.
True elephant sanctuary experience. Let’s start with pick up. The driver was on time and very courteous, he even stopped at 7/11 because my friend really wanted a redbull. The experience there was amazing, the Elephants are free roaming and all rescues, you can get close enough to enjoy it but far enough that they can still do their thing. It did say on the booking that we’d get to feed the elephants, that recently changed so that was the only issue I had. Overall 5/5
Very informative, though it was sad to hear the cruel treatment some of their resident elephants came from, but I'm so happy there is an ethical sanctuary helping these beautiful creatures. This is probably the only elephant sanctuary I would recommend to visit in all of Thailand. Side note, the food provided was amazing!
It was an absolutely amazing experience. The sanctuary is very well run and thought out, the vegetarian lunch was delicious and our guide Rudi was brilliant and very knowledgeable
The Phuket Elephant Sanctuary was an absolutely incredible experience. It was heartbreaking to learn how horribly so many elephants have been abused since the rise of tourism in Thailand. We saw it ourselves, first hand, in Bangkok. Here, at the sanctuary, they’re treated with such amazing compassion and respect. The people here really care a tremendous amount about the wellbeing of the elephants. And it was such a joyous experience to be among these happy thriving animals. Being just a few feet away and seeing the emotional intelligence in the eyes of these gentle giants Is something I will never forget. Everybody that comes to Phuket should come here and see how we can coexist on this earth. Do not give your money to business that exploit animals for photo opportunities, or interactive rides or performances. Do not reshare social media posts of people visiting those places. Those animals are kept in chains and cages, the birds and lizards are fed barely enough to keep them alive, the tigers are drugged so they won’t attack, elephants that give rides or perform tricks or make paintings aren’t having fun! They’re being forced through physical torture. All of the elephants here are rescued from abusive situations, and they have a magnificent new lease on life. Here they are happy and thriving, being allowed to just be elephants. Not slaves, not performers, not an amusement park attraction… just elephants. In the wild. Simply being allowed to be.
