It was an amazing experience. My husband and I had a very fun time prepping food and feeding the elephants and we really liked the fact that unlike other elephant parks, the sanctuary was very ethically managed. Our guide was very interactive and friendly as well.

It was amazing and so much fun! Its a very short trip which you can fit at anytime but you learn about the elephants and then you prepare some food for them and feed them. You have a chance to take lots of pictures and videos with them

The guides were extremely informative and answered all our questions about the elephants. The elephants are genuinely cared for at this sanctuary and it was so nice to see retired elephants so happy and being spoiled. We prepared the food (there was a lot of it!) and then fed the elephants, followed by drinks and snacks of our own afterwards.

It was lovely, everything went as it described. There were not many people at once which I think is great for you and elephants also. You can feed them with a safe distance and the staff makes very great photos during the whole time.
