One of highlights of my time in Khao Lak. This sanctuary doesn’t offer elephant riding or bathing but instead you get to feed these amazing animals, go for a walk with them in the jungle and watch them enjoying the river. Thanks to Mike for being such an informative guide. Highly recommend.
Wow a must do experience

We loved our experience at the elephant sanctuary. Ethical practices mattered to us, and after seeing other roadside and riding experiences with elephants, we were happy to have booked here. First, booking tours that are exactly what you want makes a world of difference. A few times I picked bundled experiences and it made all of it a subpar schlep with strangers. That was not this experience. We were in our own group, with our own elephants, feeding, walking, watching, and touching. We did not miss riding or those photos. The tour was a very full experience. We learned about their practices with elephants, fed each one from baskets, went on a nature walk with one learning about her behavior, made them "vitamins" which was very fun, and then watched one bathe from a safe, clean distance. Knowing someone recently died from a bathing experience with an elephant on a tour in Thailand, I was glad to be at a sanctuary that had always used ethical, safe practices. Pha was a great guide, with patience and kindness that helped my children be safe and connected. It was a peaceful, zen, bonding experience that was not like any other on our trip, and we did almost 20 outings on this trip alone. I do wish the sanctuary had a little shop with some souvenirs for sale, even if it was the same as sold elsewhere, because we love to buy a commemorative token from experiences and support them further.
Enjoyable experience at the Koh Lak Elephant Sanctuary

Visiting the Kohlak Elephant Sanctuary was an enjoyable experience with the family. I had no ethical concerns and the rescue animals were treated with respect and dignity. Tony our guide helped us feed the animals, took them out to exercise and help wash them on their return. The cost of the tickets help with the elephants upkeep as they cannot be returned to the wild. Top Tip: Take strong insect repellent and refillable water bottle for when you enter the jungle area.
Very good

I've been to Elephant hills before so wasn't to sure about this one, but it was very good. They do bath the elephants but you can't touch them. Great experience
