Everything was perfect! Jumbo had so much information and was an amazing tour guide! Definitely recommend!
We had a wonderful experience with this tour company! From start to finish, everything was well organized, and the trip was comfortable and enjoyable. Mod and the driver were friendly, professional, and attentive to our needs, making the entire journey stress-free and memorable. We truly appreciated the excellent service and would highly recommend this tour company to anyone looking for a great travel experience!
Great experience. 100 percent recommended. The punctual pickup and the treatment and experience at the sanctuary were perfect.
A great experience with knowledgeable staff.
Shittle was comfortable. The tour guide (Mod) was funny and knowledgeable. The elephants were so cute!
The experience at the sanctuary was excellent. The guides were great and the elephants were magical. It really seems like these folks are trying their best to help these mistreated animals live a better life. The transportation to the sanctuary from Bangkok was not as great. The driver barely talked to us so it felt a little strange, and there was no break in an almost three hour drive but since we had no communication about this part we did not know to bring water or that there would not be a bathroom break. Our driver also got the bus stuck in the sandy ground on the way out, but that was thankfully resolved quickly with the help of the sanctuary pickup truck! With better transportation this would be a five star experience for sure! Highly recommend anyway.
This will be one of the most unforgettable experiences of your life. The opportunity to interact with all 8 elephants (soon to be 9!), whether feeding them or helping them bathe or just BEING with them is a lifetime-making memory. If you’re on the fence about doing this… don’t be. Book it now!
This was an amazing experience! We got to feed and help bathe the elephants. They each had 24 hour caretakers and were treated very well. It was so interesting to hear their stories as they all came from various backgrounds. Highly recommend. Don’t forget your bug spray though!
OMG, this was super incredible. You actually hang out with elephants, and feed them and swim with them! It was absolutely just wonderful, and this sanctuary does not harm the elephants at all. They are so sweet, and you should 10000% do this!
The experience with the elephants was OK, BUT be aware that there is a 3 hour trip to get to the site from Bangkok. The lunch was just an insult: some gelatinous noodles with a few bits of tofu and some worm watermelon and a bottle of water. A one star experience.
