ELEPHANT NATURE LOVER
4 Days / 3 Nights Program
IT'S ALL ABOUT ELEPHANTS!
The best part of this package is the time you will spend with the elephants. Although our elephants are in good health, we share their knowledge with you on how they use herbs from the jungle to care for themselves. We also have you help create elephant enrichment activities used to keep our smart elephants stimulated.
Besides spending time with the elephants you will enjoy 360 acres of the jungle at Sappraiwan Elephant Resort and Sanctuary. You will go on a Night Hike where you will use blue lights to find giant scorpions, find nocturnal birds (we have over 100 species of birds) and if you are lucky, you might see an endangered Indian Hog Deer or Clouded Leopard.
EXPERIENCE A PART OF THAI CULTURE
If you are intrigued by Thai culture, you will have a most delightful time visiting a most unusual temple named Wat Pah Sorn Kaew. Designed by an artist monk, it is one of Thailand's most colorful temples with its exterior walls covered in more than five million colorful mosaics.
Finally, if you wish to engage in one of Thailand's favorite activities you will have fun whitewater rafting down the Khek River, a major river that has up to Level Five rapids. Note: rafting is only available from mid-June to the end of October. When whitewater rafting is not available you can visit one of the nearby waterfalls, which is another Thai favorite.
