Bukit Elephant Park Observe and Feed Guided Tour in Phuket

Set on open green grounds ringed by forest and mountains, Bukit Elephant Park in Chalong is home to eight elephants. The visit begins with a traditional Thai welcome drink, then it's feeding time: hand a basket of bananas to the elephants across the fence. Walk through the park to see the elephants and settle in at the viewing stations to watch them forage and cool off in the water, cared for by mahouts with over 20 years of expertise. Along the way, the park's guides introduce each elephant's personality and share how elephants have lived alongside Thai life for centuries. Depending on your option, make rice balls as a treat, watch rubber sheets pressed by hand, or see coconut-milk and Tom Kha Kai demonstrations before sitting down to a Thai meal.
