Información importante

- El bienestar de los elefantes siempre es lo primero. No obligamos a los elefantes a participar en ninguna actividad. La experiencia puede variar dependiendo de la comodidad del elefante, la seguridad, las condiciones climáticas y la orientación del cuidador. Algunas actividades, como la preparación de alimentos naturales, la observación de la alimentación, la caminata por la selva o la observación de ríos, pueden no estar disponibles en cada visita. Estas actividades dependen del comportamiento natural de los elefantes y de la comodidad del día. Los reembolsos no se proporcionan cuando una actividad cambia debido al bienestar del elefante, la seguridad, las condiciones climáticas o la guía del cuidador, ya que la visita guiada al santuario aún se proporcionará.

Barely finished and we wanted to go back
Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the experience so much that you wanted to return right away. We truly appreciate your support and hope to welcome you again soon.
Very relaxed tour, lots of opportunity to see the elephants close up in natural surroundings. They are well cared for & although the stories behind their arrival are sad, it is great to know that their retirement is a peaceful one. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable wow good level of English & was able to answer all our questions. Would highly recommend visiting this sanctuary as opposed to the more staged photo opportunity experiences on offer.

Great experience - our guide was very knowledgable about the elephants in the sanctuary and elephants in general. The tour was great - both the elephant part and seeing the beautiful waterfall. Pick up booked through elephant sanctuary website went flawlessly and the driver was very good.

I LOVED visiting the Khao Lak Ethical Elephant Sanctuary. There were five elephants roaming quite freely without chains or being fenced in. Each had their own dedicated caretaker. The elephants were clearly very well cared for and seemed relaxed and comfortable in their environment. Our guide, Wyn, was incredibly passionate and knowledgeable, and took such great care of me throughout the two-hour visit. You could really feel how much respect and love the staff have for the elephants. One of the highlights was being able to feed the elephants bananas and have them come right up close to interact with us. It felt very natural and respectful rather than forced or performative. I would highly recommend choosing the two-hour tour if you can. In addition to the experiences included in the one-hour visit, we also went down to the river where we watched one of the elephants swimming, eating and lounging peacefully in the water. It was incredibly calming and quite surreal to witness such natural behaviour without obvious human interference. A very memorable and special experience that I would highly, highly recommend.

Excellent experience. 5 endearing elephants! No petting, no contact, no forced bathing. A team at their side constantly like lifeguards. Long lives to the ladies!! I recommend 100%. Provide mosquito repellent.

Very nice and punctual. Great learning experience. Could spend a good amount of time around the elephants
Thank you very much for your lovely review. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your visit and found it to be a great learning experience. Our goal is to give guests enough time to observe the elephants calmly and naturally, while also sharing knowledge about their history, behaviour, and daily care. As these are rescued elephants who have spent much of their lives in captivity, we focus on creating a relaxed environment where both the elephants and our guests can enjoy the experience without pressure. Thank you for visiting Khaolak Elephant Sanctuary and for supporting the care of our elephants. We hope to welcome you back again in the future. 🐘
