5 stars does not do this place justice! Just spent a truly magical day with Jake and his elephant family. What this man has done for the elephants has been achieved through love and sacrifice and it is a once in a lifetime opportunity to get close and personal with these majestic creatures. Cannot recommend highly enough.
cannot recommend this tour enough. the elephants are so well known and cared for. loads of interesting and engaging information shared, and it truly was a magical experience to spend some time with such magnificent animals.
Absolutely fantastic few hours. Our guide Joy was amazing. She was very informative and looked after us all wonderfully. The elephants are just beautiful and it’s nice to see the care they receive. Our favourite bit was bathing with the elephants and giving them a gentle scrub. We were able to shower and change after that and then go for a lovely lunch!!!
This was one of the best tours we did They seemed to really take care of the elephants, limited tours and people around them. The food included was beautifully done made amazing memories with my family. Wasn't rushed along with the elephant we are going to book again in january when we return to Thailand
Fantastic and heartwarming event!!! Way from Phuket was quite long But totally worth it! This experience Will allow you to spend close time with elephant - walk through the jungle, feeding, washing! Youll be assigned to one elephant, every elephant has own personality and story. Our guide was fantastic, it was a lecture from passionate professional. And Through all the path he was making photos and they are Amazing, Special thanks for these beautiful memories! At the end of journey was served very delicious dinner in a very beautiful surroundings. THANK YOU for this opportunity, it was like a
We loved this tour! We did the Jungle walk, feeding and bathing. We have lots of time to interact with our elephant and others. We had a small group of five people and two elephants between us all. Our guide was very knowledgeable and sympathetic towards the elephants. He was an Australian so very easy for us US citizens to understand. The facility is beautiful and well-maintained. The lunch was great! Highly recommend this tour!
What an once in a lifetime experience! I was excited for this trip but didn't expected it to be that great. The interaction with the elephants was just magical! But also to see the way how our guide and the Mahuts interacts with these beautiful animals and with each other was great to see! I can highly recommend this trip.
Was incredible loved it. Can really tell that the elephants are really well looked after and are definitely in safe and good ha da
I felt that their primary concern was for the welfare of the elephants. I think they will do even better with support from ordinary travellers like us. Full marks from me. Go there!
This was excellent experience. Everyone was incredible kind and helpful. The tour was very informative and was such a beautiful place. I would highly recommend.
Excellent. Highly recommend. They treat the elephants so well and the tour guide was amazing!
