Feed Me Premium - Elephant Jungle Sanctuary Phuket

Feed Me Premium adds hotel transfers and a little more time to the basic feeding visit at Elephant Jungle Sanctuary Phuket. In about an hour and a half you learn what the elephants eat, prepare their treats, feed them and watch them in the water. It suits travellers who want to see the elephants without getting wet themselves and without arranging their own transport.

You are collected from your hotel and driven to the Kathu or Thalang camp. A briefing covers elephant behaviour and the sanctuary's conservation work. You then learn about elephant nutrition and prepare seasonal fruit and healthy treats before feeding the elephants by hand and taking photos. To finish, you watch the herd splash, play and swim in their natural pond, then return to your hotel.

You do not go into the water, the mud or the shower in this program; those belong to the Feed and Shower and Half Day visits. Starts run at 10:00 and 14:00 and bookings close three hours before. Pickup covers registered hotels inside the Phuket zone, not the airport, cruise ports or Airbnb properties, and the camp is assigned automatically. The sanctuary describes itself as ACES Gold certified: no riding and no performances. Children must be with a parent or guardian.
