It will cost you around 1,500-2,000 Baht inclusive of Rt transfers, tour guide, entrance fee and snack.
Its fun way to see those elephants doing their tricks, magics and football game.
It maybe a little bit hot and dehydrating so dont forget to bring your bottled water with you, a towel, sunglasses, sunscreen , a hat and a fan.

 The Soccer Match, Samphran
Elephant Ground by Mikebb, 4 more photos
First we were introduced to the animals and then there was the soccer game, all the big names in soccer were represented , however the game was friendly with several goals scored. Then followed the mock battle with the elephants decked out in bright colours going into battle, very different to modern day warfare where the armies attempt to camoflage. This scene was representing typical Thai warfare several centuries ago and it was done in a blaze of colour.
After the show the elephants came to the fence where you could pat them and have a photograph taken.
The entertainment was good and well worth the visit. Leave a Comment

 Riding on the back--the
luxury way by Applelyn |
This is not quite a "theme show" as the elephants, all ages and sizes, live and work in the sanctuary. Yes they do take you on a trek thru the river but its all part of their exercise and they seem to love it. You can buy big hands of bananas for 20 baht and feed them. This was thrilling and the baby elephants know very well what to do to get hold of those bananas! Big mums and aunts stood under giant bamboo huts some shielding new born baby elephants from the rest of the herd, waiting to take out their guests on a cooling trek thru the river where the mahouts make you sunhats from banana leaves. A great trip for all ages.

This was a lovely introduction into the world of elephants. The whole area is like a cool oasis as there are trees and gardens everywhere.
When you walk into the park there is an opportunity to have your photo taken with tigers and then there are the elephants. There are a lot of them that you can feed and touch and we were lucky to be able to interact with a mother and her baby. Elephant rides are offered as well. They have a small zoo and then you see the elephant show.
The seating area for the show has fans which help give a breeze. The 1st is a magic show which is really good and then the elephant show. They give you a history of elephants and they stage a mock battle. Later there is a soccer game.
The elephants are well cared for and it is a lovely place to spend a few hours.

Travel 283 miles north east from Bangcock head on over the Surin,where its know for the elephants.Well in November they have a big festival where you can see hundreds of elephants that they dress them up in silk garments for the parades.Its like what we know as a circus.Here they show off the elephants and have a tug-of war game with the elephants against people. Lots of foods to sample and if you like you can even get a ride on a elephant. Leave a Comment

We found and discovered that those elephants in Bangkok are so gentle and are so popular that they grace most Thailand postcards. Up close they´re even sweeter than you can imagine. There is also something so curious we had discovered, did any of you guys know that the elephant milk is blueż It is so incredible when we saw these with our own eyes, blue milk! We have something for you to look into...if you wish to learn more when you meet these elephant in Ayuthaya, it sure is worth the trip and our time, The Thai capital until the Burmese destroyed it in 1767. There are so much rich history to this but our pages on VT is not enough, however, if your time travel permits spend some time and visit the Chao Sam Phraya National Museum...other than that to add more fun to your discover, use one of those bikes and drive around and see all the ruins. Enjoy Bangkok, not only is everything out there so affordable, but so very interesting. Leave a Comment
