Our History

   Our mission is to create a world where elephants can live freely and in harmony with nature. We believe these majestic creatures should not be used for entertainment, but deserve the right to thrive in their natural habitat, treated with respect and dignity.

   We don’t own any elephants—we care for them as family. This means we support ethical sanctuaries where every animal is guaranteed freedom, proper care, and protection, as part of a larger commitment to species conservation.

   This vital work is made possible through our partnership with true havens for elephants, such as the sanctuaries in Chiang Mai and Phuket.

«Tears in my eyes, in the best way.»

I didn’t expect to get emotional, but seeing the elephants just be — no chains, no rides, no rush — was overwhelming in the most beautiful way. This place is full of love.

«My kids didn’t want to leave!»

They fed baby elephants, made vitamin balls, and even got to help bathe them. My son said, “This is one of the best days of my life.”

«The sanctuary every traveler should visit.»

I’ve been to Chiang Mai three times and this is by far the most soulful, respectful experience I’ve had with elephants. No touristy vibe — just peace.

«Ethical. Heartfelt. Unforgettable.»

You can feel the difference the moment you arrive. These elephants are free, and the staff truly cares. This is what tourism should look like.

«Not a show. A sanctuary.»

If you're looking for tricks, rides, or selfies — look elsewhere. But if you want to connect with nature and feel part of something meaningful, this is it.

What Makes an Elephant Sanctuary Truly Ethical?

The Word “Ethical” Is Everywhere—But What Does It Really

Our Sanctuaries, Our Promise

Since 2007, we’ve rescued and cared for elephants in Chiang Mai and Phuket. No riding, no hooks, no staged shows — just real care, open landscapes, and honest education.

Chiang Mai — Feeding & Bathing (Small Groups)

Gentle, hands-on experience done on the elephants’ terms. Feeding, walking, river bathing, and lunch included.

Phuket — Ethical Nature Program (No Bathing)

Educational walk, feeding basket, Thai culture demos. No riding, no hooks, no forced bathing — ever.

Chiang Mai — Our Rescued Elephants

Meet the elephants who inspired everything. Each has a story of healing and freedom — from hard labor to family life in the jungle.

Since 2007 — Care First, Always

Family-run with 18 years of ethical care. Insurance included, English-speaking guides, and thousands of happy guests who value real ethics.
