Wonderful elephant rescue home

5.00A wonderful experience - the best elephant rescue camp by far. We’ve visited many elephant camps and rescues across Thailand, and this one truly stands out. Maria and Lucky are absolutely adorable, and we learned so much during our visit. Highly recommended and definitely worth visiting if you come to Koh Samui. The staffs are amazing, knowledgeable, and provide such warm hospitality.
An exceptional, educational tour

5.00A well recommended tour, staff really care about the elephants and have excellent knowledge. A more hands on tour with making the food and then feeding the elephants, seeing them roaming free and bathing. An excellent afternoon, really recommend it. Thank you to all the staff.

5.00This tour was perfect in every way. Firstly, they were very accommodating and kindly accommodated us changing our booking due to food poisoning. On the day itself the experience was insane - we made the elephants food, learned about their back stories, fed them, saw them out in 14 acres of land where they’re free to wonder and then helped hose them down. It was beautiful seeing these magnificent animals rescued and respect and admired how much the sanctuary deeply cared for the elephants. We could only touch them when feeding them and they made it very clear you do not play with their food or tease the elephants. They also have 24hr care for the elephants and only bring the elephants for feeding if they’re in the mood that day - it’s all clearly with the welfare of the elephants in mind and we loved that.
Samui Elephant Home is a heartwarming experience

5.00We visited Ko Samui on a cruise and we booked this tour last minute. It was such a great experience and one of our favorite memories from Thailand. There are a number of Elephant Rescue programs in Thailand which is commendable. It was educational and heart warming. You have the opportunity to make elephant appetizers, feed the elephants, walk with them in the fields, practice a little sling shot, bathe the elephants and have lunch. The team at Samui Elephant Home is gracious, kind and very loving to their nine elephants. It's a wholesome, informative experience in Thailand. It was definitely a highlight on our tour of Southeast Asia.
