This establishment does not act in the best interests of animal welfare. Activities where visitors can touch, pet, or otherwise directly contact wild animals are problematic and generally not species-appropriate.Please research carefully beforehand and do not support organizations that exploit animals for commercial purposes. Instead, support reputable and sustainable animal welfare projects.Wild animals are not pets – they should not be touched, petted, or, most importantly, washed, ridden, or otherwise manipulated.Please think carefully before financially supporting such activities.
An incredible and highly recommended experience. I spent quite a while looking for a truly ethical place where elephant care is a priority, and I left this place feeling so happy.Bang and the entire staff were incredibly kind. They told us the whole story of the sanctuary, the elephants they have there now, and the wonderful community that has formed around their care.They don't allow you to ride them, which I find amazing, and while they do have their daily routine because they receive food, they are never forced to do anything. There is no mistreatment, and you can see the love they have for the animals.I would recommend it a thousand times over!
A wonderful experience! The staff are lovely and you can tell they care about the animals' well-being! The elephants are incredible and very friendly! I highly recommend this place!
Great experience with the elephants and staff. Would definitely recommend for families with young ones. Good learning opportunity on how the Sanctuary takes care of the elephants that are coming from prior abusive environments and enabling them to contribute to the local community socially and economically.
What a wonderful experience! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The three elephants were so adorable, each displaying their unique personalities. They were never subjected to any hooks, sticks, or aggression.Another highlight was the photographer who took so many beautiful pictures of us. It was a complete surprise!My 3yo was initially a bit scared, but eventually, they happily took a shower with the elephants.
🐘 An unforgettable and 100% ethical experience — I highly recommend it!We visited this sanctuary with my two children, ages 2 and 4 and a half, and it was without a doubt one of the highlights of our stay in Krabi.Upon arrival, Bang took the time to explain the sanctuary's philosophy, the story of each elephant — BooBoo, NomNom, and Noi — as well as the rules to follow and what is strictly forbidden. You immediately feel his passion and genuine love for them.We then set off in a pickup truck into the jungle to find the elephants in their natural habitat. Walking alongside them, getting to know them with bananas, moving at their pace… it was simply magical. No chains, no constraints — they roam in complete freedom.Back at the sanctuary, we had a snack while they rested, and then we prepared their meal together. The mud bath was a moment of pure, unadulterated laughter, followed by a rinse and a swim in the river with them. A truly magical moment.What touched us most: at no point were they forced. No riding, no training. Just happy elephants and humans privileged to share their daily lives.An experience I recommend to the whole family, even with very young children. Thank you Bang and the whole team! 🌿🐘
The care of these elephants is top notch.. a wonderful team and an amazing local community all looking out for these stunning creatures. Feeling so lucky we got to share in a small snapshot of their existence.
If you’re visiting Thailand, Krabi Elephant Sanctuary is the place you should go to see elephants the right way. This is one of the best sanctuaries that puts the elephants’ wellbeing first in every way.The team dedicate their entire lives to rescuing, protecting, and caring for these incredible animals. The elephants are calm, playful, and completely at ease - it’s clear they feel safe, respected, and loved here. Such a special, ethical experience and one I’d recommend to anyone.
