5.0Awesome experience being around the elephants in their natural habitat, making food for them and feeding them!
Ethical sanctuary, no chains, no bull hooks and elephants seem well cared for

4.0I so enjoyed the activities and the time spent with the elephants. Everything was well planned and well organized but unfortunately very rushed. If each session could be extended by just an hour more time time could be spent with the elephants and it would not feel as though we had to run from one activity to the next without a break.
Shawn and the Elephants made this a magical experience

4.0Both me and my partner enjoyed this tour. We were picked up outside our hotel on time, the driver was friendly. We even stopped off at the bakery to get some snacks. Upon arrival to the sanctuary, we met our guide, he was funny and knowledgeable. We all had a turn to feed the elephants and cut chunks of corn for them as snacks. I feel like we could have had more time with the elephants in the water or just sitting with them peacefully to enjoy the scenery. I didn’t manage to bathe with the elephants but my partner did, they gave us the option to take a shower. We had towels, wet bags, soap and hairdryers prepared. The tour was very organised. We also had their clothes to change into which were clean and lockers to put our stuff in.
