Customer Reviews

Excellent. Good amount of time spent with elephants, the team is very efficient on taking photos, and providing a lot of knowledge about elephants. - Kerry

I brought my Canadian nephews to enjoy the elephant encounter. It turned out to be a highlight of their trip to South Africa. Thank you very much for your professional service, your beautiful reception and shop, overall it was a very pleasant experience. - N

A very informative and well rehearsed experience. Although expensive it was worth every cent. Would have loved to learn more about the individual elephant's history. Thus ticked off a bucket list item, and will go again. - Gustav

Excellent experience all the way from booking via email to the actual day. Because the group was very small, there was plenty of opportunity and time to interact with the elephants. Our guide for the morning, James, was very engaging and the handlers are great at photography too! The elephants are well cared for and treated with dignity and respect. Great work and thank you to all at the Sanctuary for making my birthday special. - Adéle

The morning was one filled with information and the most amazing experience. Our guide was patient, well spoken and informative. My companies were visiting South Africa from Australia returning home with "If you visit S.A. you have got to visit the Elephant Sanctuary at Hartebeesport", I believe this says more than a hundred words! I will certainly visit the sanctuary again. Thank you it is rewarding knowing there are places of interest well run, exciting and not over priced. - Denise
