Lunch
Wir haben diesen Ausflug gebucht, weil uns versichert wurde, dass die Elefanten in einer möglichst natürlichen und artgerechten Umgebung leben würden. Leider entsprach die Realität absolut nicht diesen Erwartungen. Die Haltungsbedingungen der Tiere waren alles andere als artgerecht, und es wurde schnell deutlich, dass es in erster Linie darum ging, Touristen eine “Show” zu bieten – ohne Rücksicht auf das Wohl der Tiere. Die Versprechen des Veranstalters wurden nicht eingehalten, und wir fühlten
This full day tour is Thailand to a tee. It's got elephants, Thai food and even a bamboo raft ride through the jungle. You'll visit an elephant rescue centre to learn about these gentle giants before a tasty Thai lunch. Then, spend the afternoon floating downriver in a bamboo raft and checking out a Sea Turtle Conservation Centre.
The adventure starts with a scenic drive through Khao Lak National Park, offering spectacular views over the Andaman Sea. The Seaside Retreat stands as one of Thailand's premier parks for elephants. Upon arrival, you'll dive right into learning about and caring for the elephants, an experience that not only connects you with nature but also educates about the critical importance of conservation.
Soon, it'll be time for you to eat. Watch your lunch being prepared at live cooking stations before feasting on tasty Thai treats. Then you'll have the chance to relax with a soothing foot spa and create a nature-inspired Eco Print souvenir. Last but not least, hop on a bamboo raft and float through the jungle to the Sea Turtle Conservation Centre – an initiative that cares for thousands of endangered baby turtles until they are released into the Andaman Sea.
