Fun & Smart - My guide was kind, smart and patient. She gave me advice on how to connect with the elephants & monkeys. The Sanctuary was absolutely beautiful. Very peaceful & designed nicely. I loved walking the bridges in the monkey sanctuary. The elephant trainers were very intelligent & patient giving us tips on how to touch the elephants.

Fun & Informative - I truly loved my guide who taught me how to connect with the elephants. The sanctuary is a beautifully designed place. Everyone who worked there was knowledgeable & friendly. A lot of time spent with the elephants feeding them and touching them. The monkey walk was beautiful and fun crossing the bridges & allowing the monkeys to crawl all over you!

Must do excursion - Excellent tour. Enjoyed the monkey sanctuary the most. Would highly recommend this tour. As for See My Country Safaris, our guide Marlene was absolutely amazing!! She arrived at our hotel on time. Marlene joined our tours at the sanctuary and took photos of us. She is by far the best tour guide we’ve had.

A Highlight of our trip! - Our driver, Roland, was awesome - he picked us up and dropped us off on time, was friendly and hospitable, and gave us information about South Africa on our drive - he was such a pleasure. Once we arrived at the sanctuary, the guides took over - they provided an activity that was both ethical and enriching for both the animal and human participants. Highly recommend!

A amazing day - It was an amazing morning being around the elephants and monkeys. Got to brush the elephants, along with feeding them. To see them up close is a great experience. Also got to feed the monkeys, which as a fun thing to do. My tour guide was great, from the moment she picked me up at my hotel, until she dropped me off.

A wonderful day - This was such a wonderful trip, I would very highly recommend it. Sayomi, our guide, was very nice and everything ran smoothly. She also took photos and videos for us, which was nice. The elephant walk, in particular was an absolute highlight of our trip to South Africa. This was the third day trip we did with See My Country Safaris and I would recommend them to anyone.
