Welcome to BEES Elephant Sanctuary and Happy New Year 2021. After such a difficult year in 2020, our love and thoughts are with everybody and we hope you are safe, in good health and able to visit us soon! We are located in a stunning area of rural Thailand, South-West Chiang Mai in the district of Maechaem. We believe you have found us as you are a responsible traveler looking for an ethical experience with elephants in Thailand.

We feel it is our responsibility to lead by example and encourage the highest welfare standards possible.
