It’s a great experience for the whole family – truly unforgettable.
It is not possible for domesticated elephants to be released into the wild, but they still have to be cared for over the course of their long lives.
This is where Samui Elephant Home comes in. You will still have the opportunity to meet and interact with these magnificent creatures, but without the need to ride on them. The elephants are treated ethically, and can enjoy a more relaxed and enjoyable life than that they were previously used to. Here you will have the opportunity to feed the elephants, walk with them and even help to shower them in a giant bath. It’s a truly unique experience that you can enjoy in some of Koh Samui’s most beautiful natural surroundings.
Samui Elephant Home offers a best memory experiences and activities such as learning the natural habitat of elephants and getting to know how they live in the wild. You will prepare some food supplements for the elephants, which are a combination of tamarind, pumpkin, peeled bananas, sticky rice and sea salt. Get the opportunity to observe the elephants in a mud spa and take them for a walk to observe the way they play and interact with their natural habitat. At the end of the walk, you will be met with cold towels and drinks, and the mahouts will take the elephants for a quick shower, before what for many is a highlight of the visit – the opportunity to bathe with the elephants. It really is a unique experience, and something you will never forget, as you shower and brush the elephants in a giant bath.
