Where Elephants Are Family

Join us for a day of gentle connection and create an unforgettable bond with our beloved gentle giants.

A Mahout Family's Story

The Heart of Our Home

The soul of our elephant home is Grandma Lun. Born in a traditional elephant village in Surin, she has spent her entire life alongside elephants. 30 years ago, she brought her passion and her first elephant to Phuket, working tirelessly with a dream: to build a true, safe, and happy 'home' for her elephants. This place is not a business; it is the realization of her lifelong love.

Our Elephant Family

Our elephants are a part of our family here; we have raised them since they were young. At our elephant home, we offer activities that allow you to interact with them. With their funny and calm personalities, you can get close and care for them in a way that builds a real connection.

An Unforgettable Experience

We share the traditional elephant care culture and stories passed down through our family, all while operating under an ethical tourism approach. We focus on creating a close, personal bond between humans and elephants in a warm, family-like atmosphere.

If you're looking for a unique experience that's all about fun, relaxation, and good vibes, come join us at our elephant home. We can't wait to welcome you!

Meet Our Family

We are proud to share our home with our beloved elephants. Each one in our care has a unique personality and a story of resilience. Get to know the gentle souls you'll be meeting.
