I can’t thank you enough for raising awareness of the plight of animals being used as a commodity for human entertainment and exploitation. There are so many better ways for us to enjoy the majesty and beauty of our wildlife. Also thanks a lot for making me long to go to Thailand a place I’ve never felt the need to go to. Cheers and keep safe 🥰

I love Thailand. Have family living there too. Sadly it's not just whether one wants to travel, it's being able to afford both on a monetary level and the extra annual leave needed to be taken, to adhere to quarantine for up to 2 weeks after ones break, on return to the UK. Thailand is still on COVID amber list so quarantine on return is more likely than not. I'd love dearly to see my son who unfortunately I've not been able to for over two years. I'm watching vicariously through your eyes, but not for the luxury of Anantara/Minor Hotels, but for the wonders that are Thailand, its people, food and culture. I pray the everyday Thai gets to reap the rewards of the return of Thai tourism soonest and not just the huge hotel chains. They are a people who are truly all deserving of such. ❤ 🇹🇭 ❤ Thank you for taking the time to visit a true elephant sanctuary. As an Asian Elephant Ambassador from my time at Elephant Nature Park, I advocate for the cruelty of elephant tourism to end and allow them to live as close to freedom as is possible. ❤🐘❤

I feel like the westerners’ attitude on elephants are cold and detached in the name of sanctuary. We Thais grow up with the elephants. We himans and elephants cohabitat and coliving together as a family. “Quan” or the handler love and take care of his elephant like his own kid. So I don’t think I agree with the western way.

So how much does the sandbox quarantine cost for 14 days, if you don't have a sponsor? Looking at the website, they require a RT-PCR test both before travel, and 3 in the first 14 days - adding significantly to the cost.
@cookiedad60563 жыл бұрын
The 3 RT-PCR tests in Thailand will cost you around 250euros pp, so 500 euro for 2. This Sandbox offer at the Anatara starts just over 100,000 baht, so 2600 euros. Other hotels may have much cheaper offers, starting even at around 30 euros pp/pn (under 1000 euros for 2 for 14 days).

We'll continue to show a variety of travel on our channel as that's what we enjoy 👍
