点评:🩶 Seeing rescued elephants able to interact and socialise with one another in their natural environment was incredible. No ropes, no sticks, no harness to control them is exactly how it should be 🩶
The team at HFER have saved 8 majestic and wonderful females to give them a better life. (Hopefully many more to come in the future)
To hear their stories of being used in logging & for rides for tourist entertainment was very sad, a life where they were isolated and never interacted with another elephant 😢 they all seem to love it here and their Mahouts are caring and the guides were very knowledgeable and ensured the welfare of the elephants was the priority. It was great to see all their personalities, granny was my favourite 🫶🏼
Elephants are such wonderful creatures 🙏🏼
The team at @hiddenforestelephantreserve look after them so well & you can see how happy the elephants are, able to wander around without interference from people petting and touching them.
Feeding them bananas and simply being able to watch them peacefully and quietly from observation areas was wonderful. 🍌
We did the morning session which was really informative and educational. After sitting and observing throughout the different areas, the lunch up at the top of the hill near the pools/lakes was spectacular. Watching them cool off and enjoying themselves was amazing.
Responsible tourism comes when you vote with your feet & promotes others to conduct themselves in a morally better way, instead of for greed and profit.
This was hands down one of the best experiences I’ve ever had on our travels … if you’re ever in Phuket, you should definitely go!

翻译:看到获救的大象能够在自然环境中彼此互动、社交,真是令人难以置信。没有绳索、没有棍棒、没有束缚,这才是它们应有的生活状态。
HFER团队救助了8头威风凛凛、美丽动人的雌象,让它们拥有了更美好的生活。(希望未来能有更多大象获救)
听到它们曾被用于伐木和供游客骑乘娱乐的故事,令人心碎。它们过着与世隔绝、从未与其他大象互动的生活。😢 它们似乎都很喜欢这里,象夫们悉心照料着它们,导游们知识渊博,始终将大象的福祉放在首位。很高兴能看到它们各自的个性,奶奶是我最喜欢的🫶🏼
大象真是太可爱了🙏🏼
@hiddenforestelephantreserve 的团队对它们照顾得无微不至,你可以看出大象们有多快乐,它们可以自由自在地漫步,不用担心被人抚摸或触碰。
喂它们香蕉,还能在观察区静静地欣赏它们,真是太棒了🍌
我们参加了上午的活动,内容丰富,寓教于乐。在各个区域静坐观察之后,我们在山顶水池/湖泊附近享用了午餐,景色美极了。看着它们在水池/湖泊边消暑,真是令人惊叹。
负责任的旅游体现在用实际行动投票,并鼓励人们以更道德的方式行事,而不是为了贪婪和利益。
这绝对是我旅行中最棒的体验之一……如果你有机会去普吉岛,一定要去!
