Half day elephant tour Siem Reap

5.00Traveling to the place- about 30- 40 min(from Borei hotel). Great fun feeding, washiing the elephants and nice pictures can be made. Me and my wife enjoyed it very much! You may take some cloths for change, because you can get dirty and muddy/if you want/. There is a shower and dress change place. At the end we got fruits for us - water melon and pine apple. Recommend!

5.00We had a great time. We actually flew in from Phnom Penh for the day just to see the temples and the elephants. We had a great time, feeding and bathing the elephants. The staff was wonderful and we definitely recommend the experience!

5.00Make sure you take your swim wear to enjoy bathing the elephants, which ends up everyone getting soak. Great experience and good to see these animals being cared for.

5.00The experience was amazing! The opportunity to feed and bathe the elephants was truly wonderful- the elephants are not forced to do anything, if they don't feel like being around people, they are allowed to leave and wonder around the area. I also enjoyed the guide that explained the purpose of the sanctuary and how did the animals end up there, also giving insights in the Cambodian culture around elephants. Definitely recommend!
Amazing Experience!

5.00This was probably the second best experience that I had while in Cambodia after Angkor Wat. We were able to feed the elephants bananas, cucumbers, watermelon, and these interesting banana rice balls we made ourselves. The elephants loved them so much. Then the ability to give the elephants a bath in the river was really really awesome! Definitely wear your swimsuit if you plan on partaking, you will get soaked. I 100% recommend going on this tour.
Badly managed, but Great cause

3.00I was told to be in the lobby, 30 mins before pick up of 12.30. They eventually turned up at 13.25. No apology was given. The elephant sanctuary itself was well run and the guide was informative and it was a fun afternoon. It ran late so I had to share a taxi back to the hotel with another couple. There were a lotnof people there, 30 plus which was a lot more than I had expected, as a small group tour. Great cause but not without it's stresses.
Amazing elephants

5.00It was wonderful to get up close and personal with the three elephants at the sanctuary. We fed and bathed them and had a great time. The staff is dedicated to allowing the elephants to make their own choices - our job was to follow the elephants’ lead.
Amazing elephant visit

5.00What an amazing way to start a morning. We got educated by the team about the elephants. They had there at the compound and also all the work it entails. They were there to take amazing pictures of us and share details about the relationships of the elephants. I would recommend everyone visit. Truly fantastic.
