Itinerary
Setting foot at the Mekong Elephant Park:
After crossing the mighty Mekong, your guide will begin by
introducing the team, the sanctuary, its mission and initiatives towards animal welfare. Visitors will also be given
an in- depth presentation of our elephants, explain their very own story, their family ties without forgetting to
hear about the special bonds they all individually share with their mahout.
Meeting the elephants:
Enter the pure primary forest and meet the elephants in their natural habitat. At the
Mekong Elephant Park, we do not allow physical interactions between visitors and the elephants. We
encourage passive observation as believe we are the invitees to their world, their environment and wish to just
let them be.
Happy Times together:
Your guide will take you to the 3 acre size recreational area where all the elephants
gather during the day. Observe the elephants in their leisure area and see how each elephant plays its role in
the herd.
Elephant Bath:
Experience a pure moment of fun as elephants toss and roll around in the river pool. And please
don’t be disappointed if they decide not to take a dip… we leave it up to them if they feel they need to cool
off or not.
Farewells: From the sanctuary’s sandy beach, visitors will say their goodbyes and be transferred by boat back
to Pakbeng
