Phuket Elephant Sanctuary is the first and only ethical elephant sanctuary in Phuket where elephants roam around, bathe and sozialize freely across 30 acres of lush, tropical land bordering the Khao Phra Thaeo National Park in North East Phuket. We buy all rescued elephants to ensure that Phuket Elephant Sanctuary is their final home, and we offer professional veterinary care for old and injured elephants. By visiting us, you are supporting a sustainable, ethical and compassionate approach to elephant tourism where elephants have the freedom to live naturally. National Geographic, Lonely Planet and The Guardian have all endorsed our ethical approach.

It’s a bit pricey, but well worth it knowing your money is going to a program that truly takes care of its elephants.

Amazing and a must-do excursion for the whole family. The sanctuary is a true home for the rescued elephants. This was an experience of a lifetime. We enjoyed it so much we are planning to visit the sanctuary in Chiang Mai as well. More than anything the story of how it began is touching and makes my heart warm.

What an excellent half day tour and experience! This was out of this world this tour. Even the tour guide Denis was an excellent guide who was very knowledgeable and helpful. Even got a small breakfast in the morning before the tour started, which was great too. The lunch at the end of the tour was amazing too. The food was really nice. Everyone at the Elephant Sanctuary was so nice and helpful and kind! Would highly recommend this to anyone A+++
