Have you taken a ride on an elephant before?
In Thailand, you can go elephant riding in all the major tourist destinations. Whether you are going to Phuket, or Krabi, Chiang Mai or Koh Samui, there will surely be a place where you can enjoy elephant riding. The elephant will take you through the jungle. Some times it will pass through streams, climb up small hills, and go through rubber plantations. The ride is a lot of fun. It gives you a feeling of how people travelled long time ago, before there were motorcars.
While some people are actually afraid of elephants, once you get to know them, you will find that elephants are the gentlest animal. Once you get to know them, you will find that they are also very friendly. You can feel them with sugar cane, pet them, and they react just as tamely as a house cat or dog.
Usually, elephant riding is at your own cost, unless advised otherwise. If you wish to ride elephants, be sure to inform your travel agent at Beautiful Planet when you book your holiday, and they will recommend to you tour packages that includes stop at the elephant riding places.
