Pick-Up 
Depending on the choice of program, morning 09:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. or afternoon 02:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m., we will pick you up in an air-conditioned minibus or in a vehicle from the category "SUV" (depending on your location) at your accommodation and then guide you to the elephant home animal shelter in the south of Koh Samui. Step by step, all other participants are collected for this activity until the entire travel group is completely together.

Welcome and Introduction
When you arrive at the elephant shelter, there you will be warmly welcomed, and you will be receive an introduction about the concept and objective from samui elephant Home. The elephants here can have a pleasant everyday life. As you will experience for yourself, the muhats and employees of the elephant shelter treat the magnificent pachyderms very lovingly and sensitively.

Preparation of the meal
Participate in preparing a meal and learn how to make supplementary food for elephants. Afterward, you will feed organic food from our camp such as grass and bananas and interact to take picture with elephants. It will be an emotional, unique moment.

Watch the elephants
As soon as the pachyderms have enjoyed their meal, you can also take the time to watch the elephants while they are strolling through the extensive grounds. The elephants need a rest break, which the trained staff pays very careful attention to. If you have any questions, the employees are always at your disposal.

Enjoy with elephants
After the elephants have rested, they often have fun playing and taking a pleasant dip. Now you have the unique opportunity to experience the participation to play and shower with elephants in the giant bath to take care of the elephants. Now it's worth having the camera ready because you won't get that close to an elephant that's used to humans.

Drop-Off
Depending on the program you choose, we will pick you up in an air-conditioned minibus or in a vehicle from the category "SUV" at the elephant shelter and then take you back to your accommodation.
