Oh My Gosh! What a wonderful experience! We spend the morning with Bang and his beautiful elephants. Our ride arrived on time, we arrived at the sanctuary and Bang was kind enough to share the story of the sanctuary and his elephants. We got to feed them, give them a mud bath, shower and a scrub. Seriously wonderful time.

Thank you Bang for welcoming us so warmly and sharing your beautiful elephants. Your love and passion for these gracious animals is evident in how they are treated and the beautiful fence less environment they live in. We have left your farm with so many wonderful elephant memories that will stay with us forever. 💕

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐We visited with our two young children (ages 5 and 7) and this was, without question, one of the most memorable experiences of their lives — and ours.What immediately stood out was how obvious it is that the people here genuinely love and respect these animals. The entire experience is on the elephants’ terms. They move when they want to move. You follow them — not the other way around. The guides were constantly reminding us: we follow the elephants. If they want to go somewhere, they go. Nothing is performed, nothing is forced. There is no “elephants on demand.”We got to feed the elephants, walk alongside the herd, and be in the pond with them. To stand in the water next to these magnificent animals, watching our kids experience that wonder — it’s hard to put into words.Yes, it’s maybe a little more expensive than other options…..but It’s supposed to be. That cost is what makes ethical care like this possible. There are a lot of sanctuaries in this area and tourists can easily end up at the wrong one. This is not the wrong one. The difference is visible from the moment you arrive.If you’re in Krabi with your family, do not skip this. Spend the money. It is a once-in-a-lifetime experience and every baht is worth it.

We really enjoyed our visit to The Elephant Sanctuary in Krabi, Thailand. The staff were very friendly, and you could really feel that they love the elephants and know a lot about them. There are only 3 elephants in total, but the experience is still amazing. You get to feed them, walk near them, bathe them in water and mud, and even help prepare their food.At the end, they also provide water, fruit, and cookies for the visitors, which was a nice touch.Don’t forget to bring swimwear and a change of clothes if you want to bathe and go into the water with the elephants, which is definitely worth it.

When you visit Thailand, please don’t go elephant riding. Think about their feelings and treat them like family. This place is great if you want to connect with them. You’ll experience everything here: feed them, walk with them, enjoy mud baths together, and scrub or bathe with them—without forcing or enslaving them. You need to book in advance because they only have two programs during the summer season. Stay safe at all times, and don’t scare them or touch their blind spots. They need you here for food, companionship, and freedom. The elephants here are treated very well—no chains or cages, and they walk freely. Also people here are so friendly. Thank you so much Mr. Bang our guide and thank you for taking good care of them.Again, love elephants and say no to elephant riding.

The best elephant Sanctuary in Krabi area with people who really care about animals. Being a part of the family right from the begining. Go there and experience the diference for yourself.

Although Thailand is a Buddhist country where compassion (Metta) and the avoidance of suffering (Ahimsa) are central, elephants are often subjugated here just to 'function' for tourists. Activities like bathing and constant close contact with changing groups of people cause these animals enormous stress, even if it looks like fun to us.The way they are kept is often justified by tradition or karmic destiny, yet true compassion would mean allowing these animals a life of dignity without direct human coercion.My conclusion: Those who truly love elephants should look for projects that offer observation from a distance ('observation only') instead of supporting bathing and touching. It is time for us as tourists to rethink our choices so that the treatment of these animals can change in the long term.🙏🏼
