Pick up from your hotel in the Khao Lak area:
Your friendly driver and guide will pick you up in a comfy air-conditioned minibus at around 8 am, right in front of your hotel lobby. The pick-up time may vary depending on where your hotel is located, but we'll confirm the exact time when you book.

Briefing:
When visiting the elephants, visitors receive a briefing on the proper and ethical ways to interact with the elephants. In Thailand, the historical relationship between elephants and human beings dates back to the 12th century. This enduring connection created a rich tapestry of coexistence, symbiotic harmony, and historical significance. In modern times, many of the nation's elephants need a home and ethical tourism aids in the evolution of elephant welfare in the Kingdom of Thailand.

Feeding your new elephant friends:
Imagine the thrill of breaking the ice with the elephants by offering them delicious treats to eat! Just like us, elephants adore fruit! You'll receive a basket of fruit to hand-feed these amazing creatures and create unforgettable memories. Capture the perfect portrait of your new elephant friends during feeding time. It's the ideal opportunity to snap some amazing photos!

Jump in for an elephant bath:
After you become acquainted with the elephants, get ready to join them in the river for the ultimate elephant pool party! These gentle giants absolutely adore splashing around and having a blast in the water, so make sure to pack your swim clothes because you're in for a wet and wild time!
If you decide to be near the water's edge to take some memorable photos, be cautious not to accidentally get sprayed by the elephant's trunks. It's a good idea to bring a waterproof case for your phone or camera if you want to get close to the action!

Return to your hotel in the Khao Lak area:
Parting in such sweet sorrow, it is time to say your goodbyes and farewells to your newfound elephantine friends. Our drivers will now return you to the hotel whence you came.
