A hillside sanctuary caring for elephants rescued from tourist camps, with a strict no-riding policy and a focus on letting the animals just be elephants. Visits are hands-on but gentle — feeding, walking the herd through the forest, and a mud-and-water bath — in small groups with English-speaking mahouts. Half-day slots with hotel pickup and a meal. Popular, so book a few days out.
