Elephant Jungle Sanctuary: Halbtägiges Morgenprogramm

This experience is truly one i will NEVER forget these wonderful animals are truly a sight to behold. I would urge anyone to go to this place and support the cause, the people who tend to them are so committed to looking after them and you can see the relationship they have with the elephants. When I am home I am going to look into sponsoring the sanctuary and I would urge other people to do the same. We need to look after and protect these magnificent animals and they truly are magnificent. My favourite 'Vanessa' I spent a lot of time with her and when I was leaving she gave a resounding trumpet. I asked her guide what is she saying and he said she is happy. Made my day.

This was one of the highlights of our trip. We booked this excursion directly with the Sanctuary on recommendation from our Gate1 Travel Director. It was worth every penny! An experience we will never forget! To be able to feed the elephants and get up close and personal with these gentle giants was utterly amazing. Watching them just be happy to eat, get cool in the pond, and then get lathered up with mud was truly one of the coolest things we have ever done! Watching an elephant lay down in the water and to be able to be right next to her and petting her was genuinely something I had no idea was on my bucket list! All the guides at the sanctuary are so friendly, knowledgeable, and are passionate about the care and happiness of the elephants in their care. Lunch, pictures, poop paper, showers, a cover in case you forgot a swim top is all provided at no extra cost. We will never forget the guides, the elephants, or this experience we were able to have on our trip to Thailand! If you have a half day to spend, please spend it here! You WILL NOT be disappointed! A wonderful experience that neither my sisters nor I will every forget! Thank you for all you do everyone at the Elephant Jungle Sanctuary in Pattaya!

This was by far best experience I have had! From the beginning, booking was easy and they communicated quickly when I had a question. It’s about 30 min from pattaya but they were prompt on picking us up. The whole experience is something I’ll forever remember. The guides English were amazing, they were friendly and informative. I asked a lot of questions regarding elephants , sanctuary etc. The price was more expensive than the rest of Thailand but after learning it’s to cover food for elephants and expense of upkeep the sanctuary it didn’t bother me. Also it is a good price because you get travel to sanctuary, feed elephants, make paper out of poo, swim with elephants, play in mud with elephants and get professional pictures. Honestly if I come back to Thailand I would do it again because I loved it so much. It was every bit of 3 hours at the actual sanctuary. They don’t push you to buy anything and it’s very relaxed. Elephants are free to roam and seem so happy! This was on my bucket list and was over here for work. After learning how they treat elephants at this facility it was a no brainer to book with them.

Coming to Pattaya brushed up on a lot of elephant camp strategies, mostly focusing on elephant riding, animal shows, long rides can damage the spine of elephants, training process is also cruel, I don't want to take my 4-year-old nephew experience. After comparison, Elephant Jungle Sanctuary was chosen as a pure rescue sanctuary with no rides and no shows. The interaction fully respected the wishes of elephants, making it more educational than visiting the beach mall. There's no forcing elephants here, just enough to give children a science that respects life and is more intuitive than book sermons. Baby was super happy the whole time, 500 times happier than swimming all the time. I've booked a half-day camp trip: 1. Hotel transfers There are guides in English to talk about safety norms (there are also guides who can speak Chinese) and rescue stories for each elephant, which will tell us what we can't do. Children listen especially carefully. 2. DIY natural nutritious meals + feeding Bananas and watermelons are provided free of charge to feed elephants. The elephant's nose was soft, and the gentle breath of it squirted on his hands, and the cowardly child slowly dared to reach out and feed. Children are also taught how to make nutritious meals for elephants, so they can have fun. 3. Elephant dung environmental paper by hand I didn't think the most exciting part of Baby was making paper out of elephant dung. Originally, I was worried that he would resist, but instead he volunteered to smell it and told me there was no taste at all. It was sterile plant fibres! Make one with your own hands that you can take away, and talk to children about rainforest recycling, animal conservation while doing it. It's fun and memorable. 4. Mud SPA + Bath Mud is a natural sunscreen and insect-proof skincare product for elephants. The children had fun wiping mud on the elephant and were all wet. 5. Thai simple meals and seasonal fruit available We probably eat the same watermelon as elephants. Oh, very fresh. 6. Special car returned to hotel Free to take photos when you're full, and then send them back to your hotel uniformly without worrying about traffic. Itineraries have no hidden consumption at all!

One of the best experiences of my life. I got to feed, bathe and interact with these amazing creatures. Despite the heat I would do this again in a heartbeat.

I love elephants and this was a bucket list experience for me. We had the most amazing time and it was so wonderful to get up close to feed and bathe them. It was such a beautiful time to spend time with them doing their natural activities. I had no desire to ride an elephant as I disagree that they are often mistreated and forced to do unnatural behaviours. There were no chains or sticks or prods of any kind, just gentle words by their handlers. I hope they are able to rescue many more elephants in the future, utilising the money raised from the tours they offer. I can’t recommend this highly enough. Definitely a must-do!

This experience was more than I thought we were getting. Everything went smoothly. It was so fun feeding the elephants, learning about them, making paper, giving them a mud soak, and bathing them. What got me the most was seeing how the elephants really enjoyed it, too. You could tell they were well cared for. I highly suggest you do this activity if you visit the area.

We were picked up by a private van and brought to the sanctuary. The drive took about 45 minutes from our hotel on the beach. Once at the sanctuary, we were greeted warmly by our guide and offered light snacks and drinks. From there we fed the elephants then bathed them. They were well taken care of. Great experience! Once
