It was great!! The staff was very knowledgeable and took there time and care with the elephants. It was also very kid friendly
Tons of pictures and you can tell the trainers care about the elephants. I didn’t the half day tour and the food was great!
Really a nice experience. The animals were well fed. The handlers were gentle with the elephants. None of the elephants seemed stressed. They had 4 elephants. We all received instructions about how not to scare the newest one. And even the newest one was choosing to interact with people. I thoroughly enjoyed my time here and would definitely do it again.
Very careful and considerate handling of the four elephants. Good explanations, extensive feeding and then scrubbing in the large basin, just wonderful. Very friendly staff and great hotel pickup service.
This activity was great value for money. They came a long distance to collect us from our resort on the north of the island. We were given some bananas and other snacks on arrival and then told about the elephants they have at the sanctuary. Then we got to feed the elephants bananas and sugar cane and have photos taken with them. Our guide then explained how they make paper out of elephant dung which was very interesting. Then we were given some watermelon before we left.
The elephants are beautiful and staff are fantastic! They go above and beyond to make sure you get to have a one on one with the elephants
What a wonderful experience. We had a 2 year old with us and the guides always made sure to include her in pictures or even have her feed or interact with the elephants. Im glad that these elephants were not being poorly treated. We only paid for the shower option but because the elephants did not stay to long for the shower, the guides also included the bath time so we can spend more time with the elephants.
My son 28 and I had the best time getting up close to these beautiful and well cared for animals. Feeding them and bathing them so comfortable and relaxed!
We did the feeding only and it was a perfect morning activity. The elephants were funny not wanting to eat their vegetables first but preferred the fruit. Lots of great photos and fun!
The place was nice and professional. The elephants seemed fairly content and were given food. However, I felt that the staff were harsh with them. They pulled the elephants by their ears to make them obey. They also forced the elephants to stand in different positions for photos. I wish the elephants could move more freely without being scolded by the staff.
