Ethical elephant care, Thai cooking, lunch and a waterfall visit make this a thoughtful seven-hour Khao Lak day trip from Phuket.

“This was an amazing day - the transfer from our hotel in patong was a long journey but totally worth it and a much better experience than going to other sanctuaries which would have been closer to us. Everything was completely ethical, they are rescue elephants and you get to see them just being themselves and doing the things they enjoy. Our guide (unfortunately I can’t remember his name) was amazing. He had only worked at this particular sanctuary for 7 days but had worked with elephants for over 10 years, he spoke great English and was happy to answer any questions we had about the animals and took good…”

“Rosa is a great person for this activity - very knowledgeable about the ingredients of Thai cooking, very witty - humorously keeping us all focussed - an excellent chef, to boot. Pick up was a little late due to unpreventable circumstances so we were late in starting. The market visit was most enjoyable and enlightening. We picked up our ingredients for the day so everything was very fresh. A quick transfer took us to the kitchen. It was a little way of the beaten track somewhere in the Chalong area(?).

“It was such a special experience! Honestly my favorite cooking class I have ever had. The transportation was ideal, the hosts Timi and Katie went above and beyond. I have to highlight the organization, the super clean areas of work, the farm and landscape and of course the selection of dishes made this a top experience. Having a photographer made it extra special. And the amount of food is perfect. I laughed, learned and ate the best food ever made by myself which was mind blowing. Thank you for this memorable tour. 💗”
