After pickup at your hotel in Phuket, drive to the elephant sanctuary.
Join us for a unique and ethical experience that combines the beauty of elephants and the rich traditions of the Karen culture. After pickup from your hotel in Phuket, journey to the elephant sanctuary where your adventure begins.
Upon arrival, meet our friendly staff and change into a traditional mahout outfit. Enjoy complimentary coffee and cookies as you prepare for your first elephant encounters.
Learn about the elephants and Karen culture from an expert guide at the sanctuary. Immerse yourself in local traditions with a hands-on tie-dye activity, where you’ll learn the art of fabric coloring and create your own unique design on a handkerchief-sized cloth.
Satisfy your taste buds with a traditional Thai “Kanom Krok” dessert, a coconut rice cake. Watch a live cooking demonstration and taste the cake fresh off the grill.
Once the elephants are well-fed, take a scenic jungle walk to observe how your majestic companions interact with nature.
Next, enjoy a playful mud spa and natural bath with your elephant buddy. Splash and have fun with these gentle giants as they enjoy a cool dip in the water.
Please plan to meet your driver in your hotel lobby at least 10 minutes before the scheduled pick-up time • If you arrive more than 10 minutes late or after we have left your hotel, you may be considered a no-show
