So you’ve seen the photos…
…but seeing the best photos of elephants in Thailand is one thing – another is to experience it yourself. Spending time with elephants on their terms is magical.
But remember! Not all experiences out there are good experiences. Neither for the elephants nor for you. In Go Beyond Asia, we do not support unethical encounters with animals. As a result, we do not recommend or support elephant riding, animal shows, visiting tiger temples and other similar attractions. And we will never recommend it to you either!
We prefer to take our travellers into the wild and explore areas where humans can experience wildlife in a safe and meaningful way, always keeping the welfare of our surroundings as a priority. That’s what we believe in. Read more about our sustainability approach.
