Sky and Annie were great hosts and the programme was perfect. We did the feed and shower morning programme and it was humbling to interact with these beautiful animals. The sanctuary seems to genuinely focus on the care of the animals and it was good to learn about their new gentle life away from the crueller elements of tourism. The cost of the entrance goes toward the care of the elephants which is great. Pick up and drop off at the hotel was also really welll organised. Highly recommended. Thank you for a wonderful morning!

    Nice experience but the transfer from hotel to tour was not so good. First it was in late, secondly the driver was not very professional. He said just hello very quickly and gave us the formular for insurance without explaination. Best regards
