Elephant Valley Project (EVP)

Quick Trip – Half Day (4.5 hours)

Perfect for travellers on a budget!

Monday – Friday

This option is perfect for travellers on a tight budget or who are short on time. Spend the morning hiking 3-4 km out into the forest to meet a group of elephants. Here you will see them in their natural environment, a truly special experience which is not always easy to find over Southeast Asia.

Ele Lover – Full Day (7.30am-5.30pm)

Great for those who want to see elephants in their natural habitat!

Mondays – Friday

You will hike between 5-8 km in and around the stunning Cambodian jungle to observe two different elephant herds. Follow them as they play, graze and navigate their forested home. The Ele Lover full day program also gives travellers the opportunity to learn more about the elephants, the conservation work done by the EVP and the lives and culture of the local indigenous people.

Lunch is included and will be a Khmer style buffet lunch! Unlimited water refills are available at base camp.

Taste of the Jungle – 2 Days/1 Night (Day 1: 7.30 am – Day 2: 5.30 pm)

On the 2D/1N programme, you will have two elephant experiences, walking around 3-4km in total. As well as observing the elephants, you will also get involved in the volunteering work where you work on current projects alongside staff, locals and other volunteers. These projects can include, small building activities, farming for food for the elephants and reforestation.
