Ethical & Sustainable Tourism.
Elephants Coexist with Hill Tribes Peaceably.
Blue Tao Elephant Village is not only to improve the living conditions of our rescued elephants in ethical way, but also to coexist with the Karen Hill Tribe community near our base camp. We buy some agricultural products from them to use for elephant food such as Napier grasses, sugar canes and bananas. We sponsor some village' activities such as Children's Day, help provide some equipment for the public health center. In return, they help us to protect and keep clean the community forest, jungle waterfalls, and creating a firebreak in the summer.
