Elephant Trekking - 1 Day

Elephants have been a part of Krabi’s history for longer than tourism. They are incredible creatures, both a symbol of the nation and a talisman for the Thai people. They are fascinating, gentle and remarkably intelligent. Traveling by elephants is a great way to travel without disturbing the wildlife and birds and you’ll get to see and hear more than you would with any other form of transport.

We will trek along a river running through the camp and into the forest at the foot of the mountain where we will see river-rain forest, monkeys, and birds living in their natural habitat.

Duration 1 hrs.
