Elephant Peace Project

This was one of those days that will be carved into my brain for the rest of my life. A true bucket list activity. I was looking to have a really good elephant experience but i wanted to do it with a group that was ethically sound. These guys really ticked that box. The elephants were freebto roam but allowed us to interact with them through out the session. We fed them, bathed them, walked with them, learned all about how elephants have been living with people in the area for 1000's of years and then had a wonderful dinner that overlooked the elephants as they fed in the pasture. This day exceeded my expectations and is an experience i will never forget.

So much fun!!! Feeding and bathing the elephants, enjoying the nature. The place is owned by karen family. To nowadays karen people are the most known mahouts - elephant caregivers and drivers. There’s a big difference between riding and driving elephants. There’s no riding here! Animals are free and walk literally right by and around you when the host is talking and answering questions. Elephant Peace Project is also an educational center and it has big plans on increasing awareness about karen culture and saving elephants of Thailand.

Came by and Elephants weren't there, cause I didn't book it online, which is pretty good and shows the elephants get their space. They told me to come back and I just joined another group. Very lovely people and respectful treatment with the elephants, way better than a lot out there. Main focus is the bond between elephant and human and not the money. Such a good experience
