Just wow

The tour of the Sanctuary was a brilliant experience. We have received an incredible amount of exciting information, the knowledge of the guides is really impressive. You immediately notice that the welfare of the animals is paramount! The family connection of the Mahouts and their elephants was unique and touched me deeply. Absolutely recommended and absolutely to support. Many thanks to the whole team for the valuable work!

The sanctuary was great and the elephants were amazing

The experience was amazing! It was so great to learn about each elephant and to see how the sanctuary cares for them. Then it was really nice to be able to feed them from a distance that is comfortable for the animals.

Incredibly beautiful

It was an incredibly beautiful experience 🌞. Watching the animals and seeing how well you are doing here was worth every penny! Here animal welfare comes first, no bathing, no touching simply observing and learning the history of the animals. Highly recommended!

God, hyggelig og informativ

A small place with dedicated staff. The elephants all have a different story, which is told with love and respect. Also very educational in regards to facts about elephants and their caretakers.

Nice and Quiet Ethical Elephant Sanctuary

I had the best time watching and feeling the elephants in this sanctuary with Yai! She guided us and explained everything perfectly. We even got the opportunity in the end to paint some elephants on our custom tote bags!

Beautiful ethical elephant sanctuary

This is the most cutest amazing and ethical place! We couldn’t have been more happy! They elephants are taken care for and you can watch them from distance. Our guide was attentive and answer any question we got. They also pick you up from the hotel to make it easy for you. If I could rate this 100/10 I would!
