What a wonderful experience to spend the day in nature with elephants who arent actually mistreated. The staff is composed of amazing people who share their love for these animals, which makes you love this place even more. The activities are all very interesting and funny. Of course, the highlight is the bath with the elephants. One of the best... More

I have been a volunteer for one month from March till April at Elephants World and I want to share my experience from a volunteer's point of view, because it's slightly different than the one from day tourists. You have lots more opportunities to create a bond with one special elephant, like I did with Lam Duan, the blind elephant.... More

Three of us visited Elephant's World for the day while in Kanchanaburi. This was a super worthwhile day, I enjoyed meeting some of the biologist volunteer working there, they taught me so much. I liked learning about the elephants, feeding them and obviously best of all swimming with them. The mahouts look after their elephants and obviously love and care... More

Do not miss this place. It is not only a very interesting and special experience, but also by coming here you will be encouraging positive tourism and the respectful treatment of animals. Also you will be supporting this struggling non-profit. PLEASE GO, you will not regret it. Very positive environment Good ambience Elephants are very well cared for and happy

We stayed at Elephants World for two nights. What an experience! Close interaction with elephants on their terms. This place runs for the benefit of the animals, not the tourists, and is all the better for it. The volunteers and workers were amazing. Fantastic to meet them as well as to work with the elephants. We were made to feel... More

Day in the Elephant´s world was one of my best days in my life. I have never got that close to elephants. We basically took care of them the whole day on daily basis. We prepared food for them, fed them with bananas and corns and swam with them in the river and then rode on them. It was really... More

The surroundings are beautiful and the day is well planned. we fed the elephants, made food for them, cooked them dinner and had a tour in the morning. Then after dinner we all got in... More
