It was incredible to be so close to the elephants. They are beautiful and intelligent. We could see the care they receive from the trainers and the special bond between them. Thank you to the staff and the guides. Everyone is so helpful and kind. We felt very spoilt being at the elephant sanctuary. - Leeann
We had a lovely time. The experience is worth the money. The walk about with the elephants is amazing and the guys were very knowledgeable and welcoming. - Mlungisi
We took some overseas guest who found the experience memorable to the point of being quite emotional interacting with these gentle giants. We were in a small group. James our lead guide was great with information and happy demeanour. Fantastic. The handlers gave confidence and have been with the elephants for most of the jumbo's lives. A really terrific experience. Just don't behave with a lack of respect to these creatures. Some overseas guest behave as if it is Disneyland. It isn't. It's Africa. - Kenneth
It was a experience in a lifetime, especially for my wife and daughter who has never seen a elephant live nor than touched them. The personell was very friendly. Walking and touching the elephants, wow,unbelievable. The touring gides was so friendly and we learned a lot about elephants. My wife do marketing and she will definitely do marketing for you guys too. You will definitely see us again. Thank you very much. - Leon
I had an absolutely amazing experience at the Elephant Sanctuary on February 9th! From the start, the booking process was smooth and hassle-free. The staff were professional, kind, and clearly passionate about the well-being of the animals. The highlight, of course, was the interaction. Being able to walk alongside, touch, and feed these incredible creatures was a memory I'll treasure forever. Everything about the day was well-organized and felt very special. If you're looking for a respectful and unforgettable encounter with elephants, this is the place to go! - Sheree
