What to Expect at Krabi Elephant House Sanctuary
Krabi Elephant House Sanctuary is a place where elephants can enjoy being in their own habitat. Doing what they do: eating (a lot!), bathing in mud and walking around the forest. That is what you will be seeing during your trip: elephants behaving like elephants. We don’t allow a continuous close contact as it makes the elephants feel uncomfortable. Bathing is allowed, but the rest of the time you will be observing and feeding them. That way the elephants feel in harmony with nature and can enjoy doing what they always do.

At Krabi Elephant House Sanctuary the elephants can roam around in peace. The mission of this sanctuary is to take care of them in their natural habitat and to increase public knowledge about this mighty animal. This will benefit our future generations and the elephants can get old happy and worry free!
Most definitely! Krabi Elephant House Sanctuary welcomes children of all ages. Safety is our concern, so we give young and old guidelines and rules at the start of the program. That way we can keep the trip safe and fun for everyone. Children between 0-3 can join for free. Kids between 4-10 pay a lower child price.
We welcome pregnant women to the sanctuary, but keep in mind that we walk along the park with the elephants. This can be tiring for women during their late pregnancy.
We are open year round, rain or sunshine. The elephants enjoy the rain as they can have fun in the mud and water. Don’t worry about the weather: if it’s necessary we’ll provide rain coats and umbrellas. Visiting Krabi Elephant House during a rainy day is something special!
