The Elephant Retirement Park offers a rare opportunity to spend two days visit with these majestic animals. You will witness their behavior in their natural habitat a long with having an up close and personal experience. We are sure after visiting the camps you will understand the push to stop the mass riding and working elephants. Riding an elephant is not that enjoyable anyway and also not for the elephant. This place is really good, with some good information on the elephants. You spend lots of time feeding, playing and giving them mud bath.
First Day
When you arrive at the park, they will give an introduction about their park and elephants. After the introduction, you meet and greet the elephant, feed them with fresh fruit and sugar cane and relax in their company. Then you have lunch. After that they supply you with short T- shirt for mud spa shower with elephants. When you finish mud spa and spa shower them, it’s your turn to shower and they provide the tower and soap to get yourself clean. After you have taken a shower, there is some time to relax with a cold beverage and enjoy the beautiful scenery. In the evening learn how to prepare and administer Thai herbal medicine. Then watching sunset around the campfire and enjoy a traditional Thai BBQ. Spend the night in their accommodation lodgings.
Second Day
You’ll be a real Mahout after you finish your breakfast. Then you walk with elephants to their camp for their morning drink. Back at the camp study how to harvest grass, teak tree leaves, bark and bamboo, while the elephant roams. After that you have lunch and have time relax or walk around the camp.
