Mezza giornata al Santuario della casa degli elefanti a Samui

Excellent experience , lovely staff , elephants prioritised and well looked after , lots of space and not handled by tourists

We had a lovely experience and it was amazing to see the elephants so close up. We learned so much about elephants and the ones they have rescued are adorable! It was very hot in the jungle area so ensure to take sunscreen and a fan/water. The only disappointing thing was that half way through the tour, Bestie, stopped and asked us whether we were happy with the interns who were supporting the tour as they had informed her that we were not happy with them. We wholeheartedly had no idea what they were talking about and were SO confused, we then saw one of the interns crying, this put a downer on our experience as we genuinely didn’t have any concerns or issues, we were completely perplexed and it was just a sad ending to the tour, still now we have no idea why the interns mentioned this to Bestie.

If you want to get up close and personal with these amazing animals, I highly recommend booking this tour. 🐘❤️ We were so impressed with the entire experience and the wonderful staff. Everyone was so informative, kind, caring and relaxed, which made the whole experience even more special. I actually found myself crying during the tour. It felt incredibly spiritual and peaceful knowing that these beautiful elephants had been rescued from logging and riding and are now living a much better life, receiving the love and care they deserve. Drinks were provided throughout the tour, followed by a lovely meal at the end. They even provided us with a free video of the day, which was such a wonderful keepsake. Please visit and support this amazing sanctuary. Every visit helps the staff continue providing these beautiful elephants with the care, love and life they deserve. 🐘❤️ An unforgettable experience that I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Thailand.

What an amazing experience. It’s very clear that the team here care passionately about these elephants they have rescued and are determined to make sure the rest of their lives are lived in freedom and tranquility. The guides are knowledgable and whilst it is not a hands on experience you really do get up close and personal.

A nice experience, and a thorough review of the project before we got to go to the elephants. Everyone gets a board of food so we could feed the elephants, they come with the snabble and we could give them fruit and bananas. They bathed in a pond and a lot to see. We thought it was a nice experience

Incredible, ethical experience! Prepared food, fed and observed them in their environment and sprayed the elephants with water to cool. All staff were knowledgeable about each elephant and shared key facts.

It was a great afternoon. We learned everything about the 9 elephants. They were rescued from elephant riding, the circus, or from log dragging during forestry work. We prepared their food and then fed them. Everything was filmed and you can download the video!

The people love the elephants and treat them very well and are very kind to them. The elephants are also very friendly and kind to the kids and love there food.

Such a great activity with such amazing, passionate staff. We learnt the background of all the elephants at the sanctuary, made them food, fed them, saw them in their natural environment and finished the activity with a lovely lunch. Highly recommend this activity.

​My family and I had such an amazing time visiting the elephants in Samui! The team there was incredible. They did such a great job making the whole day feel super personalised to us, and you walk away really feeling like you made a direct, positive impact on these elephants' lives. ​Honestly, what struck us most was how genuine the guides were. They weren’t after your money they just genuinely cared about educating us and asking us to spread the word about proper elephant care. ​Making the food and feeding them was so much fun, and everything flowed really smoothly without us ever feeling rushed. Finishing off with a lovely lunch to just sit and digest the day was the perfect touch. ​Loved their honest approach, too: "We don’t claim to be the best [best would be elephants not in captivity], but the best we can offer these elephants." ​If you're in Samui, definitely go support them! Great for all ages.
