FAQs
Yes! Children love interacting with elephants and the activities are safe and fun. It's a great experience for families. Besides that, the distance to the Emerald Pool and Hot springs is not too long. If your children are normally okay during a 45 minute ride, they should be fine during this trip.
Not necessarily. Swimming is optional, and there are shallow areas in the pools where you can just sit down. You can still enjoy other parts of the tour.
Yes, and that’s part of the fun! We recommend bringing a change of clothes and towel, as well as a swimming suit if you would like to enter the Emerald Pool and Hot Springs.
We are open year round, rain or sunshine. The elephants enjoy the rain as they can have fun in the mud and water. Don’t worry about the weather: if it’s necessary we’ll provide rain coats and umbrellas. Visiting Lanta Elephant Sanctuary during a rainy day is something special!
