Half-day Highlight With Elephants (No-touching) In Ao Nang

An amazing experience would highly recommend they provide an amazing service looking after the elephants how they do

Amazing experience. Staff was very welcoming and knowledgeable. Ethical facilities would highly recommend!

We booked the half day Highlight Tour: the pickup at the Hotel was perfekt and the driver even had some child seats for our 2 children. The staff is incredible friendly and our guide was just perfect. She told us everything about the elephants, their mood, where they came from, what behaviours they have, how much they eat etc. and we could ask everything. We also prepared the elephant food and helped feeling them. Short: its the perfect family friendly Trip and i absolutely recommend the 3 hour half day experience with children. What an experience!

The experience was amazing! It was so great to learn about each elephant and to see how the sanctuary cares for them. Then it was really nice to be able to feed them from a distance that is comfortable for the animals.

Enjoyed the experience. Yai, our guide was very knowledgeable. And safety maintained at all times. Each elephant showed their personality which was lovely to see

A small place with dedicated staff. The elephants all have a different story, which is told with love and respect. Also very educational in regards to facts about elephants and their caretakers.

Amazing experience! Ethical elephant sanctuary where the elephants can roam freely! They seem really happy and are treated very well! No touching but can get up close and feed them

I had the best time watching and feeling the elephants in this sanctuary with Yai! She guided us and explained everything perfectly. We even got the opportunity in the end to paint some elephants on our custom tote bags!

This is the most cutest amazing and ethical place! We couldn’t have been more happy! They elephants are taken care for and you can watch them from distance. Our guide was attentive and answer any question we got. They also pick you up from the hotel to make it easy for you. If I could rate this 100/10 I would!

Excellent experience. Very good and knowledgeable guide. Kai was patient with everyone and paced the tour very well. He ably answered all the questions posed. Thank you.

The trip was absolutely amazing and learnt so much about elephants. The four elephants at the sanctuary were so happy and free to roam. The food was lovely and loved the making of sushi for the elephant and the bag painting the guide was so friendly also. Definitely recommend

If you want a truly ethical experience then this is the place for you. The elephant are clearly well cared for compared to another place I went to earlier in my trip. The guides are also able to speak great English.

Absolutely fantastic experience, elephants are very well looked after and happy, tour guide was friendly and food that was provided was delicious

This was one of the most beautiful, life changing experiences. The roaming sanctuary is a must for those who want an ethical elephant experience in Thailand or Krabi. Our guide Kai was so knowledgeable and friendly. My friend and I had so many questions and he answered them all. All the elephants are cared for so well and it’s so lovely to see. Everyone needs to visit this place.

What a fantastic morning spent at the elephant sanctuary. Both Kai and Yai are so knowledgeable and lovely. We didn’t realise there was lunch … home cooked and delicious local food. We also enjoyed the little art and craft session of designing tote bags … brilliant x

Absolute fantastic experience, our guide was so informative we both learnt so much in one afternoon and the food at the end was spot on.

Really good experience seeing the elephants live freely and with no stress🤩 I would recommened this place and you are taken well care of

This tour was really well done, and the elephants are so well cared for. We got the chance to meet 5 different elephants and watch them play, eat, and exist happily. Beer, our guide, was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of information about these beautiful animals. I would absolutely recommend visiting!

We had such a wonderful experience at the elephant sanctuary! Our guide was incredibly kind and shared so many interesting facts about the elephants and their stories. The atmosphere was calm and positive, and it was amazing to see how well the elephants are cared for. I really appreciated that there was no forced interaction — it truly felt like a place made for the elephants, not for the tourists. A beautiful and meaningful experience! 🐘💚

We had such a wonderful time at this elephant sanctuary. Our guide Rafael was so great and we learnt so much about these beautiful creatures!! His English was impressive and seeing the elephants in their natural habitat was just gorgeous!! The dedication and hard work of the mahouts is incredible as they spend 24 hours a day with the elephants!! Highly recommend this experience! Very ethical!

Highly recommend for people who adore elephants. It was amazing to hear the elephants story, how they ended up in this sanctuary, where they get to live as freely as possible. The elephants here are taken care of really well and the staff were very passionate and informative! Big Thank You to Yai who showed us around.

This trip is an absolute MUST if you’re in or around Krabi! The sanctuary is newly opened but it a lovely place for these beautiful animals. Our tour guides were so welcoming and knowledgeable, they really made an already incredible experience even better. We got to learn the backstory of each elephant while we observed them in their natural habitat. We were also able to prepare a feed for the elephants where we got to chop up fruit and create some supplement treats for the elephants. After the tour and plenty of photos, we were served a beautiful lunch consisting of gorgeous Thai cuisine and we also got to decorate our own tote bags which are a lovely keepsake. If you can, absolutely do this trip! You can tell how well cared for and thought of the elephants are here and it would be amazing for them to have all of the support they deserve 🐘🩷

We had the most amazing experience today, the lovely ladies who gave our tour were so friendly and knowledgeable and we just had the best morning. The elephants are so looked after and you can tell they are so happy and comfortable! Thank you again! Would highly recommend for your stay in Krabi!

Amazing place to understand the elephant life and thai culture with elephant!! I loved the experience it is recommended

Amazing tour guide Rafale who answered all our questions Lovley to see the elephants in there environment. Ethical just watching no touching or riding.

Amazing experience host was very warm and welcoming the elephants are very well looked after which was my main concern at these places. No exploitation of the animal only a very insightful view into their daily lives. You also get given a souvenir bag at the end of your tour for free which you have the option to paint/ draw on.

Very lovely, educational experience. The tour guide was friendly and eager to answer all our questions, and the elephants were treated very well; no signs of animal abuse in sight. We watched them eat and bathe, learn about their pasts and individual personalities, and lastly, feed them!

Incredible experience learnt so much about domestic and wild elephants. The staff running this do such a great job with the elephants and educating visitors.

The wildlife watching tour in Ao Nang was well-organised and very enjoyable. The staff were friendly and informative. Highly recommended.

This sanctuary is a true haven for elephants. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and inspired. Our guide was phenomenal—warm, professional, and deeply committed to the wellbeing of these incredible animals. We learned so much about elephant behavior, history, and the rescue efforts behind the sanctuary. It wasn’t just a visit—it was an education and a connection. Walking beside the elephants and watching them play freely was beyond moving. 10/10!

Krabi Elephant Sanctuary offers a truly unforgettable and ethical experience. Unlike traditional elephant attractions, this sanctuary allows rescued elephants to live freely and peacefully, without rides or performances. Visitors can feed, walk alongside, and watch the elephants bathe—all in a safe and natural environment. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about animal welfare, making the visit both fun and educational. It’s heartwarming to see the elephants happy and well cared for. If you’re in Krabi and care about responsible tourism, this place is a must-see. A meaningful experience that truly makes a difference!

Wonderful experience seeing these beautiful animals in a natural environment getting quite close to them preparing food & help feed them . Pan the guide was very informative about the elephants in the area . A must visit.

The Krabi Roaming Elephant Sanctuary is incredible and a must do experienceif you are in Krabi. You can just tell how cared for the elephants are and you can watch them from afar as they roam, but we also helped feed them so got up close to them. Would highly recommend!

Amazing experience! Found out some brilliant facts from very knowledgable guides and got to understand the relationship between and Elephant and their Mahouts 😅 very well looked animals

This place is amazing. Very friendly staff, very knowledgeable about the elephants. The food was really good and tasty. 10 out of 10. I would recommend this place to everyone. Me and my wife were very lucky to have the place to ourselves.

The tour of the Sanctuary was a brilliant experience. We have received an incredible amount of exciting information, the knowledge of the guides is really impressive. You immediately notice that the welfare of the animals is paramount! The family connection of the Mahouts and their elephants was unique and touched me deeply. Absolutely recommended and absolutely to support. Many thanks to the whole team for the valuable work!

It was an incredibly beautiful experience 🌞. Watching the animals and seeing how well you are doing here was worth every penny! Here animal welfare comes first, no bathing, no touching simply observing and learning the history of the animals. Highly recommended!

Best experience we have had with elephants treated with love! Super nice and very funny guide. I highly recommend if you think about their well-being

It was a very nice experience to see how the animals are kept there. The feeding and watching was really very impressive.Our guide was very friendly and always tried to explain everything to us. Afterwards you could paint a bag yourself and there was an excellent vegetarian food

A magnificent experience at the elephant sanctuary. Everything is thought out with absolute respect for animals: no constraints, no shows, just observation and meeting with them in their environment. The visit was very sweet, guided by an adorable, passionate and attentive person, whose love for elephants is felt at all times. Thank you for this sweet moment that will remain in our memories for a long time.

It was a really good experience, the guide was good at telling about the different elephants, the people who fit them and about the place. You can see the elephants are calm and happy in the surroundings. All in all a great experience and can definitely be recommended
