Elephant Village
Elephant Riding Pattaya — Chang Thai Thappraya Safari and Adventure Park
The camp is open from 09:00am to 05:00pm. You will be picked up at your hotel and transferred to the Elephant Village in Pattaya, where you'll experience an exciting elephant ride through the camp and the local farmland for nearly an hour, before being dropped back to your hotel.
In a country famed for its exotic jungles and wildlife, the ChangThai Thappraya Safari and Adventure Park offers visitors a great opportunity to see this flora and fauna up close. As a full safari and adventure park, the establishment offers a lot more than just animals — guests are free to try their hand at shooting and ATV riding as well.
Elephant trekking is one of the park's most popular activities. Guests ride in a carriage on the back of an elephant, guided by a mahout who has a special bond with each elephant, raised from youth. Treks are available for either one hour or 30 minutes, giving visitors a true understanding of the sheer power and size of these elephants. After the trek, riders are served fruit and drinks, and may also have a chance to feed the elephants and take photos with them. For those who prefer a more familiar steed, horses are also available for jungle rides at the same prices.
