Why Choose Following Giants Elephant Sanctuary




At Following Giants, we are deeply committed to providing a unique and ethical encounter with these gentle giants. Our elephant sanctuaries are designed to offer a safe, expansive, and natural environment for our rescued elephants. Unlike traditional elephant tourism, we do not support activities that exploit these magnificent creatures, such as elephant riding, elephant bathing, feeding, or any unnatural performances.

EXPLORE THE ELEPHANT SANCTUARY IN KRABI
Nestled amidst the picturesque landscapes of Krabi, near Ao Nang, our ethical elephant sanctuary spans over 85 acres, providing a vast and natural environment for our 10 rescued elephants. Here, we offer a truly unique and responsible elephant tourism experience, focusing on observing these incredible creatures.. Witness their playful interactions, observe them gracefully grazing, or simply enjoy their tranquil presence as they explore their expansive home.
We take pride in offering an educational experience that fosters a deep understanding and appreciation for these gentle giants
Each of our elephants is cared for by their own dedicated mahout, who spends their days respectfully observing them, preparing essential food supplements, monitoring overall health and well-being, while also ensuring guests safety.
​
Our Thai, English-speaking guides will lead you on an insightful educational tour, focusing on the elephants' natural behaviour. It's crucial to understand that we are a sanctuary, not a national park; captive elephants cannot be returned to the wild. Therefore, our mission is to allow our elephants to live in captivity as wild as possible, free from work.
