★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I don't really WANT to say I am into animal tourism, especially of these big beautiful creatures. I felt like it was something I needed to experience, so I made sure to take the solo trip, which meant the elephant didn't have to carry two people and a metal seat. I got to be throw up in the air, in the water by their powerful trunk and also do a backflip off my elephants (His name was Potato) head.
My elephants trainer seemed to be good enough to his elephant, though all trainers carried large metal hooks as "enforcers". I didn't see them being used, but I don't also doubt the elephants were trained through some pain and fear so they don't act out.
The guests are very nice to the elephants because we genuinely want to be near them and check them out. The elephant shows where they dance is a mix of awkward, funny, charming and a bit sad when you really think about it.
Gotta say though, an elephant shaking its rump to Bruno Mars was something I won't forget.
Yes, they're making money off a captive animal.
Yes, it's a fun experience and you won't forget it.
Decide for yourself if you come here.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Swim with elephant.
I took a 30 minute swim with elephant in River Kwai. The mahout (elephant trainer) explained that we can bare ride elephant, but not put iron crane/chair on its back.
Mahout explain how to swim and play with this giant creature safely. How he feed the animal, brush its skin and take a bath in the river
I got many new knowledge during this fun session.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Please do your research on elephants and these organizations. Bull hooks are used here. Please consider going to an elephant sanctuary instead. I recommend Elephant Haven Thailand although there are many other ones.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Absolutely loved this experience. After a long end extensive research we decided to visit this Camp and I'm absolutely delighted with our choice. We got to spend the afternoon with Fanta and Dami, their mahoots and our guide. It was great to learn about elephants and be able to interact with them. The elephant is Thailand's national animal and a big part of the local culture, so naturally, meeting Fanta and Dami was one of the highlights of our trip. Spending time with them was so much fun and such a humbling experience! We fed them, played with them, rode them bare back and took a bath in the river. Seeing how powerful they are, I am convinced that we are just like toys to them! ? They could easily pick us up with their trunks, flip and turn us however they liked. I've never felt so small before! We were in awe of how smart, powerful and majestic they are! ?
Fun fact: elephants eat over 200kg of food per day. Also, since they are herbivores, their poop can be used to make paper and canvas for paintings.
