* Children below 5 years of age are free of charge.
As the pioneer sanctuary established on Koh Samui, this haven offers insightful tours designed to celebrate and protect these majestic giants. Guests are invited to feed, walk alongside, and quietly observe the herd as they forage, socialize, and play within their custom-designed pool.
Each resident elephant has been liberated from a demanding past in tourism, entertainment, or logging. Today, they enjoy a peaceful, retirement-like lifestyle rooted in the profound dignity and respect they inherently deserve.
