What guests mention most on TripadvisorTheme 03
A highlight of the Krabi trip
Many travellers describe their visit as one of the best parts of their time in Krabi.
What guests mention most on TripadvisorWhat should I bring?
A change of clothes, swimsuit, towel, sandals and a bag for wet clothes. Shower rooms are available for changing.
Do you offer hotel pick-up?
Yes — from Ao Nang, Klong Muang and Krabi Town. Guests on Railay, Lanta or Phi Phi are picked up at the nearest pier (Nummao, Chao Fah or Klong Jirad).
Is it OK to visit in the rainy season?
Absolutely. You'll get wet with the mud spa and bathing anyway — and a tropical shower with the elephants is part of the fun.
Do I need to book in advance?
Yes, please book online at least 12 hours ahead. The sanctuary is in the jungle and we limit visitor numbers for the elephants' comfort.
Can pregnant women join?
Our elephants are gentle and mahouts are always with them, but the forest walking route can be uneven, so please take extra care.
