About this activity

Visit Khaolak Elephant Sanctuary on a full-day small-group tour from Khao Lak and learn about elephants in a responsible, nature-based setting.

When conditions allow, guests may also observe elephants bathing naturally from a respectful distance.

The experience also includes a Thai cooking class, a traditional Thai lunch, snacks, drinking water, coffee, and seasonal fruit.
