Krabi: Elephant Bathing Session at Krabi Elephant Shelter
Descripción completa
Noventa minutos alimentando y bañando a elefantes rescatados en el refugio a las afueras de la ciudad de Krabi.
Los animales aquí proceden de campamentos de monta y trabajo de tala. La sesión comienza con la alimentación, y después al agua con un cepillo. Sin montar, sin cadenas durante el programa, sin espectáculos. Los elefantes entran porque quieren estar en el agua, y los cuidadores que trabajan con ellos diariamente dirigen la sesión en lugar de un equipo turístico rotativo.
Lo que realmente aprende en noventa minutos es a leer a un elefante: el estado de las patas, que soportan varias toneladas y es donde la mayoría de los animales cautivos acaban presentando problemas; la piel detrás de las orejas; cómo cuelga una trompa relajada. Una vez que lo sabe, puede pasar junto a cualquier campamento en Tailandia y adivinar qué tipo de lugar es, algo que dura más que la propia visita.
Una advertencia honesta. Algunos especialistas en bienestar animal argumentan que las sesiones de baño repetidas con desconocidos son en sí mismas una forma de espectáculo, y varios de los santuarios tailandeses más respetados han dejado de ofrecerlas por esa razón. Este refugio las ofrece. Si eso no le convence, en Krabi existen programas de observación y alimentación que se ajustan mejor.
También vale la pena aclarar: los elefantes asiáticos en Tailandia son casi en su totalidad criados en cautividad o rescatados. Un refugio es un arreglo de jubilación, no una población salvaje, y los animales dependen de las personas para la comida y la atención veterinaria. Cualquier lugar que prometa comportamiento salvaje está exagerando.

This was one of the most amazing experiences I’ve ever had! The crew is just amazing, looking after every detail! They offered everything we needed, took beautiful photos, offered food. This was truly special. The place is incredibly clean, you can have a shower and they even offer toiletries. You can see they take good care of the elephants. I can’t recommend enough!
Such a lovely experience. You can really see how much they care about the elephants and their wellbeing, which made the visit feel very special. Our guide was also incredibly kind, knowledgeable + including the beautiful pictures taken by the crew. Definitely a memorable experience!
★★★★★ The most beautiful experience of my life! 🐘❤️ Visiting the elephant sanctuary in Ao Nang was an absolutely unforgettable experience. The elephants seemed so calm, relaxed, and well cared for. They have plenty of space to move around freely, which made the experience feel very special and respectful towards the animals. Our tour guide was amazing as well — very friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the elephants. Everything was well organized from start to finish. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Ao Nang. It was definitely one of the highlights
Nui very good guide! Recommend this to families and those who want to have an experience close to elephants
Feeding the gorgeous elephants was incredible! Best Birthday ever 🎈

Liefe time experience and the elephants have been treated very well
It was amazing. The guide was so kind and knew so much about elephants. Absolutely perfect experience and ethical. They also gave us free amazing Thai tea and coffee and mango sticky rice!
Our visit to bath with the elephants was amazing! In my kids words “the best experience of our life” Everything was perfect, it was so well run, you had an elephant to each family/group then you all swapped so you were getting to meet all the elephants. These beautiful beasts look healthy and well cared for and it’s so apparent that they are loved and cared for by their mahouts and the other workers at the sanctuary! We gave our phone to someone to take photos and also the professional photographers take photos and you get them sent to you that afternoon (we had an early session), all free, no
this was such a fantastic experience! the communication before hand was excellent and we were collected on time. when we arrived we were given a bottle of water and a locker key. there was free tea, coffee and juice, and a shop with ice cream, souvenirs and water shoes if you forgot yours. We had a short talk about elephants before we got to go and meet each one. then we spent time feeding them before getting changed into swim wear for bathing and then showering. nothing felt rushed and sooooo many photos were taken on our own phones and by the staff who email you them for free. after bathing
