About Elephant Jungle Cafe

A café in Kathu that is home to rescued female elephants, visited in guided one-hour slots: after a briefing, guests feed them fruit at the fence, close enough for photos. A slot costs about 800–900 baht with a drink afterwards; book ahead, and expect fans rather than air conditioning in the café over the enclosure.
