Koh Samui Elephant Experience

4.7/5
19 reviews

Feeding and seeing Asian elephants up close is one of Thailand's bucket list experiences, so this half-day tour takes you to Samui Elephant Home to meet them. You'll see them in the mud spa and help to prepare their food, before walking with them through Koh Samui's lush natural surroundings.

Samui Elephant Home works to help and care for elephants with the aim of releasing Asian elephants into the wild and conserving the species for generations to come. And you'll be able to take a look into the project's hard work by helping them with their daily routine and learning about elephant conservation in Koh Samui.

On arrival, you'll be given an introduction to the centre, then it's over to the food prep station to prepare the elephants' meals before feeding them. During this activity, you'll be able to learn about the elephant's dietary needs, and even a find out about the individual quirks of each animal. Afterwards, you'll head over to the mud spa, then walk with them, observing the way they play and interact with their natural habitat.

    Ein wunderschöner Ausflug, alles war super organisiert. Alles zum Wohle der Elefanten, die aus Gefangenschaft oder dem Zirkus befreit wurden und nun dort frei Leben können. Der schönste Ausflug für uns auf Koh Samui.

    Sehr schönes Erlebnis mit Elefanten und sehr guten Mitarbeitern vor Ort. Hat alles sehr gut geklappt und wird uns unvergesslich bleiben. Tolle Tiere und nun in einer guten Umgebung für sie nach den schlechten Erfahrungen der Vergangenheit.

    Wunderschön, sie sind lieb zu den Tieren und obwohl sie es für Touristen anbieten, achten sie sehr darauf das es den Elefanten gut geht und sie nicht zu sehr gestresst und gestört werden

    Rundum toll, toll, toll. Tolle Informationen zu den Elefanten am Anfang. Informativ und spannend. Wir durften Futter zubereiten und kamen den Elefanten dann nahe... beim baden war es etwas eng im Pool, mit 2 Elefanten und vielen helfenden Händen zum Baden, da wäre es in Gruppen vielleicht etwas entspannter gewesen, dennoch ein super Erlebnis. Kurzweilig war es. Super, dass sich um die Elefanten hier gekümmert wird und auch ein Hospital in Planung ist.
