Customer Reviews

We had a wonderful morning with the elephants. Our guides were friendly and informative and we enjoyed it thoroughly. We didn't feel rushed and our photos were great. The breakfast was tasty and we went in to do a feeding which was great too Would recommend - Sarah


Very nice experience! - LEONARDO


This will forever be a core memory that Monique and I will get to keep for the rest of our lives. Knysna Elephant Park pulled out all the stops, and not a single thing was not thought of. From the moment I walked in to the reception, the staff made me feel like I had nothing to worry about leading up to me popping the question. Gents, this is going to get you all the brownie points you will ever need. When the question had been asked (she said yes), we were greeted by welcoming team where there was champaign and flowers already waiting for us where we enjoyed a great breakfast. A very special thank you to every single staff member who was part of our day, and this certainly includes our favourite elephant Sally. - Ryan


Great walk with knowledgable guides. All 5 of us each walked with an "own guide and elephant"... being able to really experience these giants from close-by and ask questions. A fantastic experience!! - Monique


My daughter and I were keen to experience this walk after reading the excellent reviews. The experience lived up to the high standards everyone spoke of. The elephants and their handlers are genuinely in-tune and the experience is kind, gentle, natural and although the experience is curated- one u see stands that these few elephants would not survive being out in the wild. This experience allows one to contribute to greater awareness campaigns and education of the public about the need to collaborate and actively protect the natural resources we have. This is 100% worth the money, time and memories. I will most definitely do this again. Very precious! - Janet
