About this experience

We provide a caring home for elephants where they can live as naturally as possible and are respected by guests. We adhere to an ethical model, which means no chains or bullhooks, no riding or performances, and limited interaction with people. This allows the elephants to express their natural behaviours, including foraging in the jungle, interacting with each other, playing in the mud, and bathing in the pool. We encourage other elephant owners to adopt this compassionate approach to elephant tourism for the benefit of the elephants and to provide visitors with a more gratifying, authentic experience. The elephants now living at Pattaya Elephant Sanctuary previously endured much hardship in their lives. They were forced to perform in shows and be used for elephant riding, or were taken to the streets to beg for food. It gives us great happiness to provide a safe home for our herd where they can live free from work, and finally.
