Twelve rescued elephants from hard industries throughout Thailand now call Samui Elephant Haven, the premier ethical elephant sanctuary on Koh Samui, home. By employing tactics like banana tree harvesting and community farm launches with the backing of nearby hotels for a better and more environmentally friendly future, we have been able to contribute to the protection of our elephants because of the unwavering efforts of our team, mahouts, and volunteers. Samui Elephant Haven is thrilled to extend an invitation to individuals and small groups for a unique experience as we embrace a brighter future. Our founder, Maew Suriya, provides visitors with a special chance to interact with the herd by making wholesome rice balls for our cherished girls to eat. This program advances the goals of our sanctuary and strengthens the bond between guests and our growing herd.
The delicious rice balls are made of rice, bran, pumpkin and turmeric and can also contain vitamin supplements or medicine. The balls are a great source of protein and are particularly good for baby and elderly elephants as they are easy to eat and digest; their lack of teeth can make it challenging to chew leaves, roots and trees resulting in gastral problems. They are also a great way of tempting elephants to eat their medication if they are sick.
Every day, there will be two fun sessions where children and adults alike can attend a short class and make tasty and nutritious food for the elephants, learn about elephant behaviour and feed the two nannies Sudarat and Sri Nin, the girls Kwan Samui, Moloair and Nong Pech and mum and baby Somboon and Haven.
Each day there are two sessions:
10.00 to 10.45
15:00 to 15:45
Tiny ones under 4 years old – Free
Little ones 4 – 11 years old – THB500
Big ones 12 years and over – THB1000
FOR SECURITY PURPOSES AND TO PREVENT FRAUD WE WILL NEVER ASK YOU FOR AN ONLINE PAYMENT OR A DEPOSIT.
PLEASE PAY IN CASH (THAI BAHT) ON YOUR ARRIVAL AT THE HAVEN.
THANK YOU.
