Close encounter with elephants - The sanctuary was great, we had the chance to feed and touch these wonderful animals, while rangers shared a lot of information. Also our tour guide Jason was very friendly and told a lot about his country and the coubtryside on our way there. We definitely recommend this tour.

Being interactive with Elephants!! - Jason arrived promptly at my hotel to drive me to the sanctuary. He was very knowledgeable about the countryside. Upon arrival, the sanctuary personnel took me to meet and interact with the elephants. They took video and photos to capture these unforgettable moments!! When done, Jason was right there and took me back to the hotel!!!
