**Winners of Best Animal Welfare from the Tourism Authority of Thailand!** **Recognized by leading animal welfare charity World Animal Protection as a Best Practice Elephant Venue** We are very proud to bring the first elephant sanctuary to Koh Samui in Southern Thailand.

This is the only genuine elephant sanctuary on the island where elephant comes first, not the visitor. It’s worth every penny you pay, these people are saints and each elephant has its own minder who is making sure those old ladies have everything they need! These beautiful giants have been tortured, abused and have been working hard for most of their lives, this sanctuary makes sure it gives them the retirement and enjoyment they deserve. Sanctuary is purely self financed by the ticket sales and donations and all the money goes into making sure there is enough bananas and food for them as well as gives the sanctuary a chance to buy and save more elephants ( their price can reach 5 million bahts!). Make a difference, help them out, spend a day feeding and walking with elephants in their own environment, it will be a memory you will cherish for life! Thank you for reading this.

Samui Football Golf is on the beach road 5 minutes from the Big Buddha and 10 minutes from the main resort town of Chaweng. This 18 hole footgolf course and botanical garden is a great activity for sports fans or the non-sporty among you as it combines a nice walk in nature together with a fun game for all. Every hole is landscaped with a different experience and the course twists and turns though the jungle setting giving many surprises and much variety as you play. The course is also home to over 350 species of tropical plants and is suitable for every ability. A round takes about 90 mins to complete depending on your group size and rest time at hole 11, where you receive a complimentary soft drink. If you make your own way there is no need to book. A full round and hotel transfers can be organized online, at your hotel reception or at any travel and tour shop on the island.
