Thai Elephants Lead The Way in South East Aia

With so many new and exciting ways to enjoy a vacation, and ecotourism is becoming a popular way to exploit nature without destroying it, adventure holidays are definitely the way forward for both tourism businesses and tourists and travelers alike. For elephant tours Thailand is a top destination, mainly because of the size and temperament of the animals and the well-run tour companies who operate to and within the Kingdom. South-East Asia’s warm climate and inexpensive costs of living and travelling, and the culture and food, make it the best place on the globe to travel to for the widest range of budgets. Jungle trekking and scuba diving are wonderful ways to experience nature without causing unnecessary damage. If you want to just visit or ride elephants Thailand is a great destination.

There are many huge national parks and thousands of square kilometres of natural habitat in Thailand for elephants to wonder around in the wild or be cared for in captivity-to be reared by volunteers before being released back in the wild. For these day trips riding an elephant Thailand really is a fantastic destination. It is cruel to take them to cities or beach resorts and force them to work, so tourists should avoid giving money to those so called mahouts you see walking them on the road who probably work for the local mafia and abuse these wonderful creatures for their own monetary gain. Some people even take part in elephant shows and lie on the ground for the animals to step over, and sometimes on, them. They appear to be aware of which humans care for them, control them, are scared of them and may harm them. It is perfectly safe to walk around them and touch their trunks, ears or flanks. One of the most convenient natural habitats for an elephant camp is just north-west of Bangkok. They are hard-working animals, have gentle temperaments and good memory capacity. From personal experience, I can recommend this as a wonderful, safe and humbling experience. These places give tourists the opportunity to feed and pet pachyderms, ride them within the elephant camp if they’re feeling brave enough, and offer day trips into the jungle for the best experience.

For those who are considering or planning a visit to an elephant camp Thailand should be the first place they think about. African elephants are significantly larger than those in Asia and also used to wide open spaces as their natural habitat. Moreover, with constant political conflicts and extreme poverty, Africa is often seen as a less desirable holiday destination mainly due to the feeling of safety and security. This means that riding them in real-world surrounding that they’re used to must involve savannah safari-type trips more than jungle treks. The animals are well treated, and the people are friendly, helpful and competent.

In contrast and conclusion, Thailand has so much to offer visitors. In addition, for some of the world’s best elephant camps Thailand is fast becoming the top destination in the world. Such as good shopping, delicious food, wonderful people, waterfalls, jungle treks, soft white sandy beaches, and clear turquoise seas full of marine life. Go there and see for yourself before word gets out and it is spoilt by too many tourists or greedy businesses charging more than is fair.
