Living Green Elephant Sanctuary started in Chiang Mai in 2016, and its Chonburi branch sits on 100 rai in the Khao Khiew hills of Sri Racha, about 1.5 hours from Bangkok and 40 minutes from Pattaya. The Ram Buttri address near Khao San is the Bangkok booking office, not the sanctuary. There's no riding. The half day has you change into a traditional mo hom shirt, hear each elephant's story, feed them and walk with them, then join them for a bath and water play before a Pad Thai lunch.
The morning program from Bangkok is ฿2,200 for adults and ฿1,300 for children aged four to eight, with free hotel pick-up in central zones from Khao San and Yaowarat to Sukhumvit, Silom and Bang Na. Pick-up is 07:00 to 08:00 for the morning and 11:00 to 12:00 for the afternoon. World Animal Protection advises against bathing with elephants, so know that the water play is part of the day.
