Please do not go! The treatment of elephants is heartbreaking. My tour leader promised we’d only attend an ethical sanctuary. This is not. So sad!

Was good , you can ride an elephant.

Beautiful experience feeding the elephants, we don't like to ride them, we preferred touch them and give them lots of bananas, hope more torist will do the same.

It is a unique place to meet elephants, ride them but at the same time it hurts my soul because I see the being punished, used, treated unwell and tortured.

Animal abuse.
I applied to elephant bath but when I arrived there, realized its not what I think.
the staff said we have to ride a elephant for going down to liver.
We said no ✖.
At least we didnt ride but staffs kept holding elephant's ear and nose roughly. They kept asking us rude on the elephant.
If I know its like this, I would not come here.

A must go and visit place !!!
Very well trained elephants and friendly trainers
Small fee of 800baht/pax for 30-40mins including river walk and bath
Thumbs up especially for the trainers
Do tip them at the end of trip

Superb experience you should never miss in Thailand: bathing with an elephant in Kwai river. Just exhilarating and unforgettable communication and interaction with most gracious giant animals and great local guides!

Absolutely loved this experience. After a long end extensive research we decided to visit this Camp and I'm absolutely delighted with our choice. We got to spend the afternoon with Fanta and Dami, their mahoots and our guide. It was great to learn about elephants and be able to interact with them. The elephant is Thailand's national animal and a big part of the local culture, so naturally, meeting Fanta and Dami was one of the highlights of our trip. Spending time with them was so much fun and such a humbling experience! We fed them, played with them, rode them bare back and took a bath in the river. Seeing how powerful they are, I am convinced that we are just like toys to them! 😂 They could easily pick us up with their trunks, flip and turn us however they liked. I've never felt so small before! We were in awe of how smart, powerful and majestic they are! 🐘

Fun fact: elephants eat over 200kg of food per day. Also, since they are herbivores, their poop can be used to make paper and canvas for paintings.
