Walk with the elephants - This was a great experience. We walked on the canopied walkway but spent most of our time with the elephants at ground level. Ice cream, our tour guide, was very knowledgable and took lots of great photos of us with elephants. I feel it was a good amount of time. The snacks were a nice touch too.

Great to see the elephants in good care - Love they take good care of the elephants at the sanctuary. We visited the elephant hospital with 2 elephants in it. They were fed and medically treated there. We also saw them walking freely in the sanctuary. They were very calm and friendly. One of them even walked next to us when we were taking a photo. The guide was also friendly and knowledgeable. Keep up the good work and best of luck on expanding the sanctuary!
