A wonderful experience for a great cause - This reserve does an amazing job looking after rescue elephants. You get told about the individual elephants, what happened to the. & their personalities. We chose this park because It is ethical, the needs of these beautiful animals come 1st Elephants can be fed and photos can be taken with them but they can’t be touched. You get to follow the elephants around the reserve and after learning about rubber farming, you’re given a delicious lunch. The reserve is a charity and receives no funding. We had a lovely morning & are so glad we supported this wonderful cause.

Elephant Sanctuary - Beautiful experience and a great lunch. It was great to hear about the rescues. Knowing that the cost go towards keeping them in practice to be able to take care and expand was well worth the admission fee. I do wish there were separate groups for families with children but nonetheless still great.
