Must do experience! - This experience was amazing to say the least! From the beginning my driver, Sabelo, from Philippians 4 Travel & Tours made my day. He was kind, welcoming and informative. I felt like I was in great hands while traveling solo. As for the Elephant & Monkey Reservation tour…. they both were outstanding! The experience in both I will never forget!

Simply A Great Experience - It was an amazing day period I couldn't recommend this tour highly enough. My driver was fantastic, he knew a lot of information about the area and the tour. It was a calm atmosphere and I didn't feel rushed. They split us into groups that were just the right size. The elephants were great to be around. And the caretaker's were awesome in handling them. The monkeys were a lot of fun.And we really enjoyed feeding them. If you are in the area, I would highly recommend this tour. It is a great value for the price.

Once in a lifetime experience - Superb - a privilege to be able to feed and touch these majestic animals under the careful guidance of the animal carers my. From the time we were picked up by our very competent, safe driver, Tshepo, and dropped back at our hotel we had a wonderful day. Our tour operator (Philippians) was exceptional in their communication and prompt responses.

Loved every second of this adventure! - Both the elephant and monkey sanctuary tours were absolutely incredible. We had the opportunity to feed the elephants, learn about them during an educational session, take plenty of photos, and even enjoy a short walk alongside them. Afterwards, we spent time with the monkeys, feeding them and taking in the stunning views of the sanctuary.
