"I didn't even want to visit an elephant sanctuary in Thailand, but this was one of the highlights of my Trip! First we fed bananas to a few, then got to go into a waterfall with one during bath time. Then they cooked us a huge dinner!"

"Eine magische Erfahrung. Wir wanderten mit Ken einige Minuten durch den Dschungel und auf einmal erschienen die liebevollen Riesen vor uns. Wir durften sie mit Wassermelonen und Bananen füttern. Gebadet haben wir sie nicht. Dafür haben wir zugeschaut wie ein Local zwei badete und sie planschten im Wasser. Die Ohren stetig am wackeln, was ein gutes Zeichen is..." Read more

"I have no idea what is wrong with the people that gave 1 star reviews. We were a group and our tour company has a great relationship with the family so maybe that helps. The 4 elephants were very happy to come get snacks from us. We did stop and buy small watermelons from a roadside stand on the way so we had lots of interaction. Ken has an amazing personali..."

"Fantastic place where the elephants live wild. We did a 1 night / 2 day trip with them and it was one of the best tours we’ve ever done. We had a great trek followed by an amazing night at the elephant village with Ken and his family who made us feel super welcome. The second day we spent with the elephants and it was wonderful. Thanks for everything guys! C..." Read more

"Die Lage ist wunderschön jedoch war es weniger natürlich als ich mir dies vorgestellt hatte. Zwei Elefanten trugen „eine Glocke“, was nach mir jedoch mehr eine Vorrichtung war diese anzubinden."

"WOW! I can’t believe how amazing it was to see these magnificent giants 🐘😍 Mr. Ken was very kind and explained that they rescued these creatures from other elephant riding places where they were tortured with sticks and were rode on! Mr. Ken and the village do everything they can to give the best life for them so they can live freely 🥰 how amazing is that..." Read more

"Fantastic sanctuary, happy elephants, wonderful guides. The jungle trek was technical in the rain, but such a cool experience. Some reviews state the elephants have ropes around their necks; some do, the ropes hold bells — like cows in Switzerland, it helps let the keepers know where they are. I was worried about the elephant welfare coming here, because of..." Read more

"It was great to see the four elephants there. However 3 of them had a rope around its neck. None of them had marks behind their ears. We fed the elephants, learned commands such as to open their mouth (not sure if this is ethical), trekked through the jungle with them and watched them bathe. Unfortunately we didn’t get a chance to bathe with them. During t..." Read more
