My wife and I visited here on our first few days in Ko Samui. These people do an absolutely fantastic job with the elephants. Loved the fact you can get up close to these huge animals. Watched your excellent videos prior to heading to Thailand. Just arrived back home from a fab holiday there. Keep doing a great job Geoff.
Just got back from Koh Samui and the Samui Elephant Sanctuary (because of your video)...we were lucky enough to get Smile as our guide, amazing day with the elephants. Thank you for the recommendation!
Hi Geoff, Glad you enjoyed it here. Did you see the two baby elephants? loved them and absolutely loved the old one that was blinded in one eye by its previous owner before it was rescued. We loved our visit. The elephants are free to roam and do what they want when they want. No riding, no bathing with them just walk around with them and see them in a much better environment that where they used to be. Well done Samui Elephant Sanctuary, cant wait to visit again.
Recently went on vacation on Koh Samui and this was one of the most AWESOME experiences ! Loved it! Bless these people and what they do for the resuced elephants!
I saw a lot of bad treatment of animals when I worked in the Far East. It was disgusting at times. It's wonderful to see such kind Thai people looking after these magnificent creatures with care. A caring society looks after its animals.
Fantastic Vlog Geoff and great to see theses beautiful elephants 🐘 looking so happy and free to roam I’ll be getting myself a T-shirt from there for sure .
What a breath of fresh air that was Geoffrey, made a lovely change from the normal day to day videos from Thailand. Great work these people do with a smile. Well done mate😀👍❤️
Excellent video Geoff. Respects to you for doing a Vlog in an Elephant Sanctuary for rehabilitating these Elephants. Respects to the staff who work there too. I'll be going to Thailand next year and will go to an Elephant Sanctuary where there is no Elephant riding or shows.
That was wonderful Geoff, been to Samui a few years ago now but never visited - worth going back again soon , just to see this place and also Samui is a beautiful Island anyway
Great vid Geoff,I think David Attenborough will be getting worried about his job.We have 20+ guys telling us how much for a beer or breakfast so it's nice to see an interesting and informative video,keep them coming,chock dee!!!
Really enjoyed this..beautiful to see these elephants being cared for..such beautiful creatures that like a mooch..bit like you Geoff..😂although I thought you were on the Chang's when ya when down in that hole..great place with really nice caring people.
Great video Geoff, we visited the sanctuary on Friday and were really impressed with the care the elephants received. A must visit if you are on the island 💕
One of the most elegant animals in the world and to my shame i sat on one in Koh samui on a short trek .To this day i regret that ..i hand fed it after and the staff thought i was crazy buying as many banana's as i could .I will never forget the overwhelming feeling looking into the Elephants eye as i fed him .the stories they could tell .What a job that is ..where do i sign up .One of your best Geoff ,cheers mate
Hi Geoff I met u a couple of times in pattaya seen all your blogs but mate this one is absolutely brilliant best u ever done thanks mate buy u a beer wen I bump into u
There's a Blue Badge Guide there for you she was so wonderful, friendly and knowledgeable First class visit, Thanks for filming. Manchester is missing you SMILES
Love this Geoff! My fav. out of all your videos. This is the only way to get up close to Elephants. NEVER ride them and support that cruelty and abuse.
Thank you for having a sanctuary in KOH SAMUI..............Thank you Lek.....for supporting............HOPEFULLY, YOU CAN RESCUE ALL THE ELEPHANTS AND OTHER HORRIBLY ABUSED ANIMALS AT "NAMUANG SAFARI PARK"........THAT SHOULD BE CLOSED .....AND EVERYONE WORKING THERE GO TO JAIL...............HOUSE OF HORRORS....
This may be my first time commenting on one of your videos, but my husband and I have become obsessed with watching them! Seriously, we sit down at night to watch a movie, and then one of us ends up saying, "Come on, just one Geoff Carter video?" And two hours later, we end up watching an elephant sanctuary gem here. :-) Thank you for this beautiful video and for all your work. Because of you, we are traveling to Chiang Mai next month! Can't believe it! So excited. Actually I have a question: We got immunizations yesterday, and were told to take anti - malaria pills. Do you ever take those while you are there? I noticed you all put on bug repellent in this video. So just wondering if you take the antibiotics as well? Sorry, random question! Anyway, many many thanks for all the entertainment. Your pure enthusiasm and wonderful friendly attitude inspired us to get out of the US and head to Thailand. Fantastic! ~Andrea Vaughan
not everywhere in Thailand tho still more work to do. its because they are making more money from western tourists paying 100 pounds plus for these expiernces (to go hiking with them)
dantae666 What do you expect- let tourists experience this for free, if it wasn’t for tourism then these beautiful animals could not be looked after and cared for
@@martinpowell5769 the hell is wrong with you. I'm pointing out there is more money to be made from this business model from western tourists which is why things are changing. but a lot of tour companies are still nickel and diming and working there elephants to death, along with the phajjan still in existence. so there is more work to be done to get things to change. its definitely not because thais care about animals their culture is still a long way off that look at the king parading his elephants through the streets and making them ride bicycles
Great video feeding Elephants up close + lunch, really informative Many Thanks Gus
Highly recommend this wonderful place! Please give and donate for these beautiful animals!
Fantastic video, huge respect to everyone caring for these beautiful elephants 🐘💚

This place seems like a commercial operation but any help the elephants get is a good thing.
