Escape the busy streets of Pattaya and spend a day surrounded by nature and gentle giants at the Living Green Elephant Sanctuary, located just 45 minutes away in the Chonburi mountains. This peaceful 40-acre sanctuary provides a natural home for rescued elephants, offering travelers a unique opportunity to engage with them in a responsible, ethical way.
Your journey begins with a comfortable hotel pickup or direct check-in at the sanctuary. Upon arrival, you’ll change into traditional Mo Hom clothing and meet the elephants in their free-roaming environment. Watch them forage, play, and interact naturally while expert guides share their personal rescue stories and explain ongoing conservation efforts. The sanctuary has a strict no-riding, no chains, no performances policy — your experience is focused entirely on animal welfare.
Activities include hand-feeding the elephants, walking alongside them through jungle paths, and even joining them in the river for a bath if they choose to play in the water. Afterward, enjoy a delicious local-style lunch such as traditional Pad Thai while relaxing in shaded seating areas with panoramic mountain views. Morning and afternoon sessions are available, making it easy to fit this meaningful experience into your trip.
By visiting, you directly support elephant conservation and help give these amazing animals a second chance at life. Perfect for families, animal lovers, and eco-conscious travelers looking for something truly memorable in Thailand.
