Cannot recommend this tour enough. To start, the pickup was easy and punctual and the sanctuary was less than an hour away. Our guides were extremely accommodating, offering us water, fresh fruit, a changing area with showers and even crocs so your shoes don’t get muddy. They communicated all the necessary safety precautions but were never stern or pushy. The elephants, Poom Poom, Gigi, and Homie, are very lively yet well behaved. We prepared them food, fed them, and walked with them into the field for more feeding. Then we helped them get muddy before walking them into the water for cleaning. It was truly an incredible, unforgettable experience. I can guarantee no where in the world lets you engage with these amazing creatures as up close and personal as they did at the sanctuary today. Moreover, you can tell the caretakers genuinely love and care for these elephants in the most humane, heartfelt way - never limiting them from enjoying themselves while at the same time looking out for our safety. A huge highlight of our trip, highly recommend.
Great experience

Was a great experience! We opted for the morning tour so we got to feed and bathe the elephants, it was fantastic. There are 3 elephants and the sanctuary workers were so informative and spoke great English. Definitely worth the money!

It was so lovely to watch the elephants just enjoy their day. I feel so privileged to have been able to share in some of their daily rituals and be welcomed into their home.
We Had a Free Day.

The hotel pickup was included and punctual. The ride was safe. We picked up 3 other guests along the way so it was just the five of us for the experience. The local guides were excellent. The main guide spoke perfect English which was great as she was so informative. The elephants and the whole experience were exactly as advertised. It was a perfect morning.
