Overview

Phuket Elephant Sanctuary is the first and only ethical elephant sanctuary in Phuket where elephants roam around, bathe and sozialize freely across 30 acres of lush, tropical land bordering the Khao Phra Thaeo National Park in North East Phuket. We buy all rescued elephants to ensure that Phuket Elephant Sanctuary is their final home, and we offer professional veterinary care for old and injured elephants. By visiting us, you are supporting a sustainable, ethical and compassionate approach to elephant tourism where elephants have the freedom to live naturally. National Geographic, Lonely Planet and The Guardian have all endorsed our ethical approach.

Awesome, We Love PES!

Published on Jan, 2025

We loved this place! They are building an elephant hospital on site and truly care about their elephants! This place is truly ethical- NO touching/bathing/riding! They do allow visitors to feed the elephants, but each elephant takes turns and they ask visitors to only touch the end of their trunk where the elephant accepts the food. They also show an educational video prior to meeting the elephants. We were able to walk in the forrest with the elephants and observe them eating, relaxing and bathing! We loved it, it was magical! We also got so many snacks, beautiful mock tails and PES bags to take home!

Wonderful experience

Published on Jan, 2025

A fantastic experience at this ethical elephant sanctuary. It was good to see these animals so well cared for and allowed at last to live normal lives without having to work for humans. The experience is very well organised. The registration process was smooth and easy. The welcome at the sanctuary was second to none, with refreshments provided as part of the experience. The guide we had (Tomas) was very knowledgeable and clearly cares so much about these magnificent animals. This is an experience not to be missed.

An Amazing Experience!

Published on Jan, 2025

It was a well-organised and informative tour. We had so much fun and it was nice to see the elephants being cared for and respected by the staff. We recommend this activity if you love elephants and want to see them during your time in Phuket.

Excellent ethical tour

Published on Jan, 2025

Awesome ethical tour, just what we wanted. We opted for the a canopy walk and it was just right we preferred the shorter time. The kitchen is very generous has dozen of snack options, breakfast and drinks. For the tour we also got down under the canopy with the elephants so feel we got the best option rather than being down on the ground for longer. Would do again and will recommend to friends. Buy souvenirs there too instead of the malls as the money goes to the elephants :-)

Phuket Elephant sanctuary canopy trip-amazing!!

Published on Jan, 2025

What a great trip, so informative and everyone was so helpful. Went with my husband, niece and hubby + two children (4 &14 mths), the walkway was perfect for the buggy and little feet. Feeding the Elephants at the end was so exciting!! It was hot but you’re given drinks&snacks at the beginning & you stop for a drink half way round. Perfect day- Thankyou so much!
