Elephant Adventure

Send messageProgram Description
Become a volunteer with this program and enjoy your jungle adventure as you become close with some gigantic gentle elephants. Watch as they interact in a setting incredibly close to wild.
Work with the Elephant Project Team as you trek through rainforests and ensure that the Asian Elephants are receiving optimal help and care. Our team is dedicated to mimicking a wild setting.
Our elephants are rescues and often come from backgrounds of neglect and abuse. These brave creatures have psychological and physical scars and so they need extensive care to make sure that they are fully rehabilitated. Your help will be invaluable in providing a bright future for these animals.
The Elephant Adventure is located in the Mondulkiri Province of Eastern Cambodia which is about 370 km from Phnom Pen. The nearest town to the site is Sen Monorom and you will be able to experience rural Cambodian communities since this is an area that has not been heavily impacted by tourism.
If you have a passion for wildlife conservation, are interested in working with animals, or are a huge elephant fan, then this is a great volunteer opportunity!
