Customer Reviews

It was a beautiful experience, and all the staff were incredible. The room was gorgeous, and we had a window that looked right onto the elephants sleeping at night which was a bonus. - Janine


What an amazing experience!!! Party of 4 of us, we all walked alongside a beautiful elephant. We enjoyed breakfast and then bought some food and went out again to feed them a bucket of food. Absolutely loved it. Guides with information about them were great ? thank you - Jacqueline


Very enjoyable morning getting close to these lovely ellies. I had my reservations re whether ethical or not but felt totally happy with this experience. The sanctuary do not allow you to touch the elephants, as it is believed to stress them, which we felt was a good thing. The breakfast was very good. - alison


An absolute incredible experience. It started with meeting the guide, the introduction video and then meeting the elephants. It is difficult to put in words to express the affection everybody working there has for these incredible animals. Learnt so much while walking and watching them. How anybody can even think of hurting elephants is beyond me. So intelligent and mindful , you can feel and see it in their eyes. - Frank


It was a magical experience, walking so close to these magnificent animals. I have now done it three times, and I will never tire of it. - Robert
