I had the best experience at the shelter! Jack and his family were so nice and welcoming. Every morning, we fed and walked with the elephants — we learned so much about them! In the afternoons, we had free time or Jack would drive us to some beautiful spots. I 100% recommend it!

My volunteer trip to the shelter was the best ever! Coming from Mexico, it was everything I wished. It's more than an elephant place; it's a family and community offering elephants a free, natural home. It's ethical for all. The guesthouse is comfy by a waterfall, with good facilities. Getting there is an adventure through beautiful forests. The food was delicious, healthy, and from their own farm. Daily, we watched and walked with elephants. Afternoons, we helped or relaxed, sharing stories. I hope to go back. Feeling an elephant walk freely beside you is uniqueand unforgettable. Thanks Jack.

I would totally and absolutely recommend this experience, Jack is a person committed to the volunteer program, and even more so with his elephant project, the situation of elephants is currently complicated but I truly believe that what the shelter does is the way to achieve it. Elephant welfare today. I am so grateful to Jack for sharing with us his story and his little paradise at home. Getting to the site can be tricky but it's worth it, I will never forget those days I spent in the shelter.

My volunteering at the shelter was a very pleasant and enriching experience. Jack and his entourage listen to our particularities and try to adapt to each one. The volunteering itself consists of accompanying the elephants every morning for a short hike in the jungle and has retraced our experiences on social networks. The rest of the time we are free to do what we want. It is obvious that Jack loves these elephants and that he does his best for them. I highly recommend this volunteering if you are looking for a peaceful place where the elephants are respected and safe.

It's hard to put my experience at the shelter into words. I did a lot of research about ethical elephant tours. I didn't find any that fit my expectations or that I felt were truly ethical and respectful. I saw a video of another volunteer (Julia), and it caught my attention. It looked great and genuinely honest when it came to the treatment of the animals. So I had high expectations, and I am so happy to say that the shelter has exceeded them all. Please don't hesitate, don't second-guess yourself, just apply and be ready for the experience of your life. You'll learn so much.

My time here was one of the best things I did in Thailand! It was very important to me to find the most ethical elephant experience, and this is it. We spent every morning walking around with Jack's very friendly and social elephants and I chose to spend my afternoons swimming in the waterfall infront of the homestay, sunbathing on the sand, laying in hammocks, and playing with kittens. Furthermore they accommodated my dietary requirements (vegan) and every dish I had was wonderful and accompanied by fresh fruit. Lastly, Jack is such a kind and thoughtful host. 100% recommend!

This is definitely the best volunteering experience I've ever had. It's paradise there. Jack is an incredible guy, polite, and aware of how to really help and care for elephants. When I got there and saw that waterfall in the backyard of the homestay, I was impressed. What's more, the rooms and mattresses are extremely comfortable and the food is fabulous. The elephants are so sweet and powerful at the same time. The experience of following their daily lives was incredible! Jack really loves elephants!

If you're looking for a sign to finally book this experience, THIS is the one you were waiting for! Volunteering at the shelter was honestly one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life. This place is truly ethical and you'll learn a lot, not only about elephants, but also about culture, social and environmental awareness, politics... everything is interconnected. The work is super chill, giving you time to enjoy nature, connect with the elephants and even join unforgettable moments, like the traditional Karen wedding Jack took us to in his village! Jack, thank you so much!

Jack is super nice and a great host! I spent almost one week with 2 super cute elephants, which was amazing! The tasks are pretty easy, and you can naturally see the elephants in their habitats. If you love elephants and wanna spend some time observing them, don't miss this chance. Jack will help you with every issue. He loves animals, and he is knowledgeable. So you will have fun and also the place where you stay, it is AMAZING! You have your own waterfall, really haha! I am so thankful to Jack and will visit again there. Maybe when Pailin has baby:)
