Sanctuary of the Elephants
Krabi
Code: KBV_FA_010
Description:
Your chance to spend an unforgettable day in an ethical elephant camp is to visit The Elephant Sanctuary
in Krabi. This is a paradise and a new home for old rescued elephants who can finally retreat away from
hard work and violence in a peaceful and lush natural environment where they are fed, bathed and well
cared for. The Sanctuary is located in the rainforest, on the banks of the river, and houses an elephant
hospital where pachyderms are treated by professional doctors and staff.
Experience:
With this tour, you will spend a morning or afternoon learning about elephants, socializing with them in the
lush jungle and cool river waters of the Sanctuary. Here the pachyderms are not ridden or mistreated, but
shown with respect. At the beginning of your visit you will have the opportunity to ask questions, learn about
the costs, the rescue process and the daily habits of these beautiful animals. You will feed the elephants as
they are introduced to you one by one by their companions.
Program:
Walk the jungle alongside the elephants through the rainforest from the Sanctuary
At the Mud River that bathes the elephants: you will be taught how to take care of their skin by gently rubbing
the mud all over the body. They love it!

enjoy being in the water and there is a chance they will get playful and splash you with their proboscis. Be
ready!
