"Die Elefanten sind frei im Wald herum gelaufen und wurden mit Futter angelockt. Wir sind zu einem Wasserfall gelaufen und konnten dort baden. Die Elefanten sind dort frei."

"This is my 2nd time here! I definitely recommend it. Ken is great and it is great to see a real sanctuary where the animals can roam free and there is no washing or riding. Great scenery, great lunch and great vibes 🙌"

"The place is indeed a sanctuary for the elephants. During the tour you will go trough the jungle to search for them and once you find them you'll peacefully have the chance to watch them eat close to you and also to touch them if you are gentle. One of the best experience so far ! Feeling one with the nature"

"On a passé une super journée c’était ouf! L’endroit est très beau et les éléphants sont vraiment tranquilles. On peut les toucher. Il y a aussi une cascade dans laquelle on s’est baigné c’était génial. Très très peu de monde on était seul à vrais dires avec 4 éléphants en liberté!!"

"La experiencia en el santuario de elefantes de Ken fue INCREÍBLE. Es un santurario ÉTICO de verdad: no se tocan los elefantes, no se bañan, no se maltratan. Tú eres solamente un observador de su mundo, en su casa, la montaña. Los elefantes se acercaban a nosotros, cuando querían, no de forma forzada como en otros santuarios. Ken nos contó la historia de los..." Read more

"It was a very beautiful experience, we met 4 elephants, 2 and 2 in different parts of the forest. All of them are females with ages between 20 and 60. They seem well cared of and they have a pleasant life. I booked a morning half day tour, the price was 1350 THB with a vegetarian lunch included and transport from hotel and back"

"I had a very nice experience! I did one day trekking guided by Pati, a local guide who showed me around jungle, taught me different wild plant use, even introduced his family and then guided me to Elephant village. There I slept one night in Spicy Village, a stunning eco-building accomodation. I had very delicious food and the next day I had the chance to se..." Read more

Notre guide Mr KEN est un passionné. Il nous a emmené avec lui pour une grande balade à la rencontre des pachydermes , raconté l’histoire de sa famille et de son..." Read more
