Pattaya's parents swim to the ceiling! Elephant conservation camp without a ride

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!

Great experience. Pick up was on time and took about 45 minutes to get to the sanctuary. Had an amazing time with these gentle

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.

Must-do bucket list experience.

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!

Amazing Experience

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.

Wonderful Experience

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

1/2 day morning elephant experience (Pattaya)

Once booked, they will WhatsApp you with all the information you need. 6.30am pickup, 8am start and we finished around 11am. Plenty of biscuits and refreshments throughout. Locker provided with 100bhat deposit. Showers there on site. Clean and welcoming area. 7 elephants on site all friendly, gentle and looked truly happy. The tour guide staff was friendly, funny and knowledgeable. Plenty of activities to do with and without the elephants. And shop on site (cash or card). Lunch buffet at the end and shuttle back to the hotel. If traveling solo, the staff there will take your photos/videos with your camera. And there's a professional camera guy on site too, and youll get your pictures on the next day max. Amazing experience, highly recommend it!

Support them ❤️

Support the heck out of these ethical organizations. The people in charge of these organizations, dont give up, you are doing God's work. I only wish the poor elephants at Nooch nooch whatever tropical garden can roam around free in these sanctuaries one day.
