LIVING GREEN ELEPHANT SANCTUARY(BANGKOK&PATTAYA)

We had an incredible elephant encounter at Living Green Elephant in mid-January 2026. It is a 2 hours drive from Bangkok but it is worth all the troubles. The staff members greeted us with a lunch (afternoon session) and detailed information about the background of the sanctuary and the tour. The camps where we set off is clean with all necessary facilities considering the remoteness of the locations. After feeding the elephant in pens, we took a relatively easy hike up the hill to get a closer look at them in their more comfortable natural setting. The commentary from the guide gave me a whole new perspective of human impact on domesticated elephant. The climax of the tour was the bathing of the elephants. Some brave souls jumped into the pool with the elephants for a splash time. I highly recommend the tour for supporting the great work by people who dedicated for making a better life for the elephants.

It was one of the best experiences of my life! The trainer explained everything about the elephants he takes care of, and listening to their stories was truly impressive and touching. It’s also a great activity to enjoy with kids. Our schedule was as follows: 1. Briefing from the trainer – about elephants and safety instructions 2. Feeding the elephants and photo time 3. Walking up the hill to enjoy the beautiful view with the elephants 4. Bathing the elephants 5. Lunch time If you plan to visit, here are some tips: The sun can be quite strong, so bring a sun cap and sunscreen. You might get wet, so wear clothes that can get wet and bring a towel (there’s a shower room available).

My wife and I had ana amazing time. Lulu (Sexy Man) 🤣and his team were thr best hosts. We had a nice lunch with plenty of cold water. The elephants were beautiful and feeding and bathing them up close was simply unforgettable. This is a must is you're in the area. The team clearly love these animals and what they do.
