EXPLORE OUR ELEPHANT SANCTUARY IN KRABI

Nestled amidst the picturesque landscapes of Krabi, near Ao Nang, our ethical elephant sanctuary spans over 85 acres, providing a vast and natural environment for our 14 rescued elephants. Here, we offer a truly unique and responsible elephant tourism experience, focusing on observing these incredible creatures as they live in a manner most resembling life as a wild elephant. You can witness their playful interactions, observe them gracefully grazing, or simply enjoy their tranquil presence as they explore their expansive home, often huddled together as a beautiful herd in the open landscape.

A visit to our Krabi location also offers an easier guest experience for anyone with mobility issues. Situated on flatter terrain, the sanctuary is designed for easier accessibility, allowing all guests to foster a deep understanding and appreciation for these giants through an educational and responsible experience.

Unforgettable Moments at Elephant Sanctuary Koh Lanta

If you are on Koh Lanta and seeking a heartwarming and responsible elephant encounter, Following Giants' Elephant Sanctuary is the ideal destination. Our sanctuary, set across 45 acres, provides a peaceful haven for our ten rescued elephants, allowing them to live happily in a stress-free environment.

Your visit to our sanctuary will include insightful observations of the elephants as they go about their daily, natural activities. Witness their heartwarming playful behaviour, observe their individual personalities, and capture precious moments of their tranquil existence that will stay with you forever.

Our Koh Lanta sanctuary is set on a mountainside, with winding and some steep paths. We are home to both female and bull elephants and their well-being and the safety of our guests is paramount. Therefore, our dedicated mahouts are closer to the elephants they care for. Unlike in Krabi, many of our Lanta elephants prefer the company of their mahout as opposed to other elephants, offering a different observation experience. 

Please see our gallery page for a better understanding of our two distinct locations and the elephants that call them home.
