Elephant Camp in Phuket

Visit to the elephant sanctuary

Kind, intelligent, and surprisingly sensitive, elephants are true giants with gentle souls. So if you are looking for an excursion that will leave a lasting impression, the elephant park in Phuket is the place where you will have vivid experiences and genuine emotions! The easiest way to get to the reserve is to book a tour with Phuket Horizon.

Elephant Jungle Sanctuary is not just an elephant sanctuary in Phuket. It is a place of freedom, where every animal has a name, a story, and the right to be cared for. Elephant riding is strictly prohibited here, there are no shows involving animals, and whips and chains are banned. Only respect, love, and natural interaction are allowed.

The history of the elephant park in Phuket began in 2014 in Chiang Mai province with a small but significant mission: to rescue three elephants from poachers and create a safe place for them to live comfortably. This simple initiative has transformed into a global movement, with sanctuaries in Chiang Mai, Phuket, Pattaya, and Samui.

An excursion to the elephant sanctuary in Phuket is not entertainment, but a heartfelt encounter. Everything here is designed to make you part of the great cause of saving animals. Every step you take in the sanctuary is aimed at protecting nature. And the smile of an elephant is your reward for participating!

How does the tour go?

The journey begins with a transfer from your hotel. Comfortable transportation will take you directly to the gates of the reserve. The tour begins with a presentation about the reserve's mission and the history of its inhabitants. Then you will experience what people come here from all over the world for—interacting with elephants. You will feed them fruit, pet them, and observe their behavior. Everything takes place under the supervision of experienced park staff. The animals feel safe and are happy to interact with visitors.

Bathing in mud baths and rivers is a special treat. Elephants love water activities. They splash around, have fun, and often invite guests to join them. This is not a show—it is true communion with nature!

At the end of the program – shower, change of clothes, and a delicious Thai-style lunch. Then, return transfer to the hotel. The entire excursion to the elephants in Phuket takes about 5 hours, each minute of which leaves an indelible mark on the soul.
