Easy to book, got pick up at the hotel. We had an amazing guide and the elephants were too cute. Really enjoyed the cooking class and the diy workshop. We created memories for life!

I had a wonderful time. The staff were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about the elephants. The elephants were playful and super sweet. I would definitely come back and recommend this experience to others.
