| They
say an elephant never forgets, one thing for certain
you will never forget your elephant trek. There is no
better way to enjoy some of the most spectacular scenery
Krabi Province has to offer than from the back of one
of these gentle giants. We have two treks to offer you:
a two hours and a half day trek. These treks start at
a time convenient to you that can be arranged at time
of booking. |

| About Krabi nature elephant
trekking and river camp. |
We
are based at Baan Nai Sra just 20 minutes drive from Krabi
and there we invite you to climb aboard one of our five elephants.
Then suddenly you're high above the ground and heading into
this amazing scenery where the quiet will envelope you as
you relax into the swaying rhythm of the elephant's walk on
a one or two hour trek (dependant on 2 hour or half day safari).
Our elephants are not working elephants, they work only with
tourists; some elephant trekking operations abuse their animals
by forcing the animals to trek with tourists after a long
day working in the forest, controlling the elephants with
fear and violence which can only lead to frustration and anger
in these otherwise gentle creatures. All our elephants are
well looked after, well fed and watered and above all respected,
we hope and believe they are happy; a happy elephant is a
safe elephant. After the trek we head to Sra Keaw Cave a huge
overhanging cave of multiple tiers each pillared with stalactites
which we give you time to explore at leisure, providing you
with drinks and snacks. Here you can also swim in the mineral
water pool that emerges from the cave and sample some of the
local pineapples. It's a good idea to feed the elephants,
they won't forget the kindness, but it is watching the dexterity
of their trunks that is the real pleasure. On the half day
tour we give you a chance to see that dexterity put to use
as our elephants put on a working demonstration for you. You
will not believe just how clever and strong these animals
can be.
After we say goodbye to the elephants we will show you one
of the newer attractions in this ancient landscape by taking
you to some of the areas that featured in the movie 'The Beach'
starring Leonardo Di Caprio. After which we will transfer
you back to your Hotel. |
