Customer Reviews

I had an unforgettable experience!as a solo traveler I was warmly welcomed and received exceptional customer service from the tour guide,not only did the provide insightful information about the elephants,but they also went above and beyond to make sure I got to capture special moments.they even offered to take photos of me with the elephants. The opportunity to feed and walk with these gentle giants was truly breathtaking. The sanctuary dedication to elephant conservation and welfare is evident in the way the animals are treated with love and respect. If you are looking for unique and heartwarming experiences, I highly recommend visiting the Elephants Sanctuary,5?[?] for me. Definitely coming back with my kids . - Nosipho


What an experience! To be able to get up close and personal with these incredible creatures is breathtaking, but knowing that this is an ethical sanctuary dedicated to elephant wellbeing and protection is top priority when booking encounters such as these. Our elephant handler was just the best, he had us laughing and even encouraged me to get a sloppy kiss from one of the elephants. He needs a huge shout out (selfie shot). Until next time... - Genevieve


It was an incredibly beautiful experience!!! Definitely worth a second visit. - Sunitha
