Great morning with elephants! - Great morning with the elephants. The staff really seem to love the elephants and they look well cared for. We had a blast feeding them and interacting. Bathing the elephants was dirty and fun, take cloths to change! Angie and her team were the best!!! Having Max take photos for everyone was awesome!!!

Great opportunities for pics with elephants! - We had arranged a private transfer due to our son having autism, however we were herded into a minibus with 2 other families, luckily he coped really well, but after paying, what I deemed extra for this, I wasn’t really happy. The staff were really accommodating of our family. There was a lot of talking by the staff which could have focused more on the preservation of elephants I felt. Wasn’t sure about how ethical it was as they didn’t really focus on that. We were told 1 elephant was saved from a circus. Wanted more of that info. I ate food and have been sick since. Great opportunities for photos with elephants.

Nice trip - The trip to the Elephant Sanctuary was well organized. We were picked up from the hotel on time and driven home at the end. The food was excellent, there were even vegan options and nut allergies or intolerances to spicy foods were taken into account upon request. We were allowed to make the food for the elephants and a typical Thai salad for ourselves. Care was taken to ensure that each elephant got the same amount of food. Every visitor was allowed to feed them and take some photos. The staff were all very nice and attentive. As a honeymoon couple, we were even allowed to take some photos away from the other tourists. Then we went bathing with the elephants and were allowed to rub them with mud. From what I've heard, there are a few elephant sanctuaries on Koh Samui. The animals there don't have to "work" in the sense that they are chained up somewhere and have to carry tourists up mountains or walk in circles, which I think is very good. On the other hand, the elephants also have to be available for the tourists, let them pet them and bathe with them, which not every elephant wanted to do all the time. They have a large facility and are well looked after. I think everyone has to be aware of their own values. For me it was an interesting trip, but in my opinion I wouldn't do it again because for me it's similar to a zoo. I prefer animals in the wild, where they can follow their own will.
