ランチとディナー付きの終日プーケット エレファント サンクチュアリ ツアー

We joined the “Morning half day” program and were impressed with the kind staff and knowledgeable tour guide, Rudi. From hotel pick up to informing the staff about my peanut allergy, I felt very safe. The staff informed the kitchen about my allergy and when we had lunch and dinner, the staff showed me which foods I could eat. We learned so much about the difficult history of elephant logging, carnivals, and rides from the intro video, however it was our tour guide who taught us so much about the resident elephants. We learned that the resident elephants were retired and finally living a peaceful life. We also participated in the “One day volunteering” where we helped prepare supplemental food for the elephants, observed a sick elephant in the hospital onsite, and cut bamboo and banana leaves for the elephants. Rudi was open to all our questions and taught us how to observe the temperaments of elephants. We had an incredibly educational experience and would recommend joining the volunteer experience for a hands on learning! Thanks Rudi for our guidance!

The animals were gently attended and were allowed to be elephants without ever being exploited. I spent a lot of time at the animal hospital, as I am a veterinarian, and I was so impressed with the high-quality medical care. My guide, Rudy had an encyclopedic knowledge of and of and a passion for elephants and was able to answer all of my questions. This was a highlight of my trip to Thailand

Phuket Elephant Sanctuary is absolutely amazing. We chose this particular sanctuary for their hands off (elephant's well being first) approach. The canopy walkway was a wonderful way to see the elephants in the natural setting they now live in thanks to being rescued by the sanctuary. The full day program was educational and fascinating. We walked through the sanctuary on the walkway but also were allowed to be on the ground to watch the elephants at a distance with a guide. We prepared food, that we later were able to watch as each elephant's mamout fed them. We learned about elephant behavior, their health, and the dangers these beautiful animals face. The program was so informative and we plan to use that information to spread awareness about the ethical treatment all elephants deserve. I will never forget this experience. Thank you PES for your work and for allowing us to be a small part of it.

Beautiful experience to learn what the elephants go through: it is sad but also hopeful that these people are really helping the elephants to live as they should after their abuse. Absolutely no feeding, no bathing no touching the elephants, just watching them be themselves. The food provided is amazing. 100% recommended

Life changing experience. We did the volunteer full day program and I can’t recommend it highly enough. To be able to experience the elephants up close and know they are living their best life in this sanctuary was one of the best things I have ever done. Buffet lunch and dinner was delicious. The staff was beyond friendly and helpful. Rudi, our guide, made the day one we will never forget next time I return I would love to volunteer for longer.

Such an incredible experience!!! We loved our day at the elephant sanctuary! Our guide Ice was amazing, she had so much knowledge about all of the elephants! You can see they are well cared for and fully worth the money to attend! Food was also fresh and a great mix of Thai food. We would definitely recommend a full day, you see so much and learn too! Thankyou for an amazing day!

Such a rewarding experience to see the love and care for the elephants in a spacious environment. Our guide Rudi was amazing and knowledgeable.

My experience here Volunteering at the Phuket elephant sanctuary has been one of knowledge and growth! Firstly Everyone here that has helped and supported us have been wonderful and super kind: giving us cold towels and guiding us if we are lost or confused. Second learning about how elephants are culturally and economically important to Thailand helped me understand that they are trying to save these elephants from conflicts. The caretakers take very good care of the elephants and have continually showed compassion and dedication in everything they do. I highly recommend visiting this sanctuary to learn more about the elephants role in this world and to have fun?

This Sanctuary was an incredible experience that let me interact with the elephants in an awesome and safe way. These gentle giants deserve to live out their lives in peace and pleasure and this experience does just that. I was able to observe them in their natural habitat and watch the interaction freely with the wildlife and nature.

I loved visiting this elephant sanctuary! You can really tell how ethical the place is. The elephants have lots of space and freedom, and they all seemed relaxed and happy. The mahouts clearly care deeply about them and treat them very gently. The elephants were amazing to see up close, and you can tell they’re well cared for. The food was also really good and everyone was so kind. Such a great experience!
