Elephant Trekking Tour

Elephants are Thailand's national animal and a vacation without elephant trekking tours is incomplete. Riding on the world's largest jungle mammal as you explore different sites will give you an unforgettable experience for your holidays. This is also a rare opportunity to interact with the elephants. You will get to learn about what they eat, how they interact with the Thai people and how they live. Elephant trekking tours give you a chance to explore the least visited areas in Phuket. Seated on the back of the elephant's rough skin, you will enjoy paranomic views and the beautiful natural surroundings of Phuket's jungle.

  • Comfortable clothes with loose fitting such as shorts and light t-shirts will do for easier mounting of the elephant.
  • Elephants are still wild animals even after being trained. Being a little cautious won't hurt.
