Elephant Sanctuary Hartbeespoort
It was a beautiful experience. We got to feed the elephants. Walked with them and also had an opportunity to touch them and learn about their bodies. Overall it's an experience I would repeat over and over - Nonkululeko
Visiting the Elephant Sanctuary was truly a remarkable experience. I learned so much about elephants and had the incredible opportunity to interact with them and touch them. I felt such a genuine connection with these beautiful animals --- I have never experienced such a close connection with a wild animal before. The staff were absolutely wonderful: welcoming, friendly, knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the elephants and the work they do. They made the whole experience even more special. I genuinely feel that more people need to know about this place. I live in Johannesburg and only discovered the Elephant Sanctuary because I happened to be searching online. This place is an absolute gem, and I don't think it is being marketed or advertised nearly enough. More people should know that an experience like this is right on our doorstep. My children absolutely loved it too and said it was the best part of their August holiday --- which says everything! This is truly an experience that everyone should have at least once. We left with beautiful memories, but also with a much greater appreciation and understanding of elephants. ?[?] - Tshiamo
It was one of the best parts of my trip. Excellent service and our guide was exceptional. I have recomended it to everyone I was with to go. - Carlos
The guide was very knowledgeable and professional. He engaged with all participants, including the youngest child, who was about 5 or 6 years old, patiently answering questions and encouraging him to share what he had learned from watching television. - Ferdi
