This experience was dedicated to introducing the life of elephants in the sanctuary “after retirement”.
It’s really touching to see how people are trying to make amends for the civilization encroachment over their natural habitat.
I highly recommend this tour as the tickets profit goes to maintaining the sanctuary and operating the elephant hospital.

Elephants up close
Was a great experience to see elephants in a natural habitat, got to see them up close with a very knowledgeable guide, highly recommend this as a thing to do while in Phuket

Great Experience
We really enjoyed the tour, we had a chance to feed the elephants. The meals provided at the location was also great. The team also very sweet, they were genuinely happy when the new elephants arrived.

Fantastic Ethical Sanctuary
Came here today for my 30th birthday whilst out in Thailand. We came at the 10am slot which I think was perfect for the heat!
Beautiful Ethical Sanctuary, you can see the elephants roaming freely around from above. Oum our guide was lovely and really informative. The refreshing drink and elephant gift at the end was also really nice. Would highly recommend!

Brilliant experience
We had a wonderful morning at Phuket Elephant Sanctuary! We saw even more wildlife than expected and we were able to walk amongst the elephants at a respectful distance. Minnie was a fantastic guide and was able to answer every question. Thank you for a fantastic experience!

Great experience
Very nice to see elephants in Thailand that aren’t forced to work, clearly enjoy their time here and don‘t interact with people on cue, but only if they want to. It is obvious the people here care deeply for the animals with the elephant hospital being free for all patients. Our guide Woody was very informative and answered all our questions. We really enjoyed our afternoon here!

Worth to come
Just an experience to understand more of elephants other than the tourism performance. So happy they can enjoy rest of their life at the Phuket Elephants Sanctuary.

Walk way elephant tour
Great experience, transfer was easy with good communication beforehand about timings.
The sanctuary is beautiful and all the staff friendly and responsive. Our guide for the walkway tour was knowledgeable about all the elephants and great at her job, friendly and engaging.
Opportunity to go down to the forest to get a closer view of some elephants was unexpected and a nice surprise. 90 minutes was perfect timing for us especially in the heat. At no point did we feel like we were invading the elephants space and felt like a positive ethical solution to seeing these fabulous animals whilst also supporting their care after enduring such sad treatment before coming into the sanctuary.
The story behind the bull elephant being treated for a broken leg left me with mixed emotions knowing that he will go back to logging if successfully treated, felt counterintuitive to what the ethos of the sanctuary is about.
Nice to know that the sanctuary is evolving though and has recently stopped tourists hand feeding for the benefit of the elephants.
Would recommend to others 🙂
