Full-day elephant experience from Khao Lak

4.7/5
8 reviews

This full day tour is Thailand to a tee. It's got elephants, Thai food and even a bamboo raft ride through the jungle. You'll visit an elephant rescue centre to learn about these gentle giants before a tasty Thai lunch. Then, spend the afternoon floating downriver in a bamboo raft and checking out a Sea Turtle Conservation Centre.

The adventure starts with a scenic drive through Khao Lak National Park, offering spectacular views over the Andaman Sea. The Seaside Retreat stands as one of Thailand's premier parks for elephants. Upon arrival, you'll dive right into learning about and caring for the elephants, an experience that not only connects you with nature but also educates about the critical importance of conservation.

Soon, it'll be time for you to eat. Watch your lunch being prepared at live cooking stations before feasting on tasty Thai treats. Then you'll have the chance to relax with a soothing foot spa and create a nature-inspired Eco Print souvenir. Last but not least, hop on a bamboo raft and float through the jungle to the Sea Turtle Conservation Centre – an initiative that cares for thousands of endangered baby turtles until they are released into the Andaman Sea.

    Vi fikk veldig mange opplevelser i en pakke. Både guiden og sjåføren virket veldig imøtekommende og hyggelige. Guiden snakket veldig bra engelsk og hadde mye informasjon. Denne utflukten anbefales.

    Guiden Non vi fick var helt otroligt bra! Att få mata elefanterna och se de på ett respektfullt avstånd var fantastiskt. Ta med handduk och bikini, det står ej med. Man får möjlighet att bada både vid vattenfallet och under turen med bambuflotte. Även om man inte badar så blir det väldigt blött under åkturen!

    Dry session. No water in waterfall. Something else should be done instead, ex visit a temple instead. All other activities were very nice
