About this experience
Elephant experiences for the whole family Welcome at Elephant Family Phuket Elephant Family Phuket invites you to join them with feeding, interacting and learning about these gentle giants.
We build this elephant park in November 2018, with the mission, to bring our culture, the culture from the Karen people, and how we live together with elephants, closer to the tourism here on Phuket Island.
15 years ago we started this project, with the “Kerchor Eco Elephant Park” in Mae Wang, Chiang Mai. We are proud to present the elephant lives, and how Karen people’s lives in our Elephant Family Park, in Phuket. We want to raise the lives of elephants and their owners families (Karen families) to be better.
Actually we are having 5 elephants, Tubtim and her 3 elephant babies 3. Namchok, Yokfah and Hansa. Fah Mai is our latest orphan elephant.
