FAQs
At Green Elephant Sanctuary Park in Phuket the elephants can roam around in peace. The mission of this sanctuary is to take care of them in their natural habitat and to increase public knowledge about this mighty animal. This will benefit our future generations, and the elephants can get old happy and worry free!
Most definitely! Green Elephant Sanctuary Park welcomes children of all ages. Safety is our concern, so we give young and old guidelines and rules at the start of the program. That way we can keep the trip safe and fun for everyone. Children between 0-4 can join for free. Kids between 5-10 pay a lower child price.
We welcome pregnant women to the sanctuary, but keep in mind that we walk along the park with the elephants. This can be tiring for women during their late pregnancy.
We are open year-round, rain or sunshine. The elephants enjoy the rain as they can have fun in the mud and water. Don’t worry about the weather: if it’s necessary we’ll provide raincoats and umbrellas. Visiting Green Elephant Sanctuary Park during a rainy day is something special!

Great day at the sanctuary, but I felt a bit rushed. Feeding the elephants was a highlight though. Would still recommend.

So much fun! The elephants were adorable, and the sanctuary is peaceful. A little short, but still worth doing.

A wonderful experience. The elephants are well cared for, and you learn a lot. It would be even better with a longer time slot.
