We received a very educational experience. The four elephants in residence have been rescued from life-threatening situations in the wild. The staff emphasizes that they are still wild animals, and we were to follow very strict protocols while interacting with them. Our guide, James, was very engaging and informative. His presentation was highly interactive. As three retired adults, we were enriched by the experience.

This was booked as a package in advance for 2 adults and 2 children. The elephant experience we had done as a couple 20 years before which was a beautiful intimate experience. Sadly this is not the case anymore. We were part of quite a large group of tourists perhaps 25 or so. Before we even started we were asked if we wanted a video recorded for R260 which we had to pay there and then. This would be important later. We listened to a long talk about the elephants which our children found rather long and boring! We then went to see 2 elephants for the feeding time. We saw a large male and a much smaller elephant both happy to see us behind a small fence. 20 years ago there was no fence. We were then told to form 2 groups one for those that paid for the video and the other for those who hadn't. Those who paid got to feed the large elephant and have pictures! Get what you pay for! Then we walked in a group with elephants some way behind us. In the past l seem to remember walking alongside the elephants. The interaction felt very staged for pictures, uncomfortably so. If you buy the video and watch it you know what l mean. The staff were very good though really informative and friendly. The kids were happy of course, they didn't care. Then we waited for the monkey experience. We sat patiently waiting and inquired near the time when it would start. We were told there would be 2 groups again but ours would be a late start. Why? No one to lead it. They didn't seem to plan for the large group size. We noticed all the others on the elephant experience were in one group while we were allocated with new people. The first group left on time with us about 5 mins later. We overheard the first group leader shout your group can feed the monkeys! Along with our kids we thought haven't we paid too? We were then told by the guide the package doesn't cover feeding the monkeys!? The kids were gutted! It spoiled the whole experience for us. I wondered why the others had the option all the way around. We had spent a fortune as we also paid for my elderly parents. At the end l complained to the lady on reception to be told the real reason. There was a limit on the group size for feeding. I was rather upset. I sent an email to the manager. He agreed it was poor service but offered no compensation. The monkeys are very friendly but if you have no food they aren't interested. As for the Lion Park. Very, very poor. They don't let you cuddle the cubs anymore since covid? I joked with the man on the gate if covid was still happening l wouldn't be in South Africa. I spoke to South African friends in Johannesburg and they couldn't believe it.

We had a great experience with these gentle giants and their caregivers. We fed the beautiful elephants with pellets and fruit that the caregivers provided. We had our time ( too little time in my opinion) to walk with them and to touch them all over the body. To feel their skin was amazing. And to get close eye contact with the amazing creature was ones in a lifetime experience.
The elephants looks well taken care of and have a lot of space. Our guide TK was funny and educated us in a easy understandable way.
The biggest downfall was that the groups are too big.

If I could give this zero I would.
There is no background given about any of the elephants. Where they’ve come from, what’s happened to them, etc etc.
Nothing on the website, nothing at the sanctuary and nothing when your talked at at the sanctuary itself.
I was with a group of people when we visited and I would not join in with the activities. These poor elephants are in small enclosures and are bribed to lift their legs, have people brush them etc for some pellets.
The fact that this sanctuary used to allow people to rid the elephants is disgusting.
Save your money and go to a wildlife reserve.

James was an excellent speaker with fantastic presentation skills. Expected much more for the price paid. Paid an extra R250 for a very disappointing video, they advertise it like this: "Get a video with you and your family walking with the elephants through the forrest." What we actually got was a video with a large crowd of about 40 other people together with the elephants and not next to the elephant, incl in the video you paid for was everyone feeding and touching the elephant and a 4 second clip with yourself touching or feeding the elephants. Could have made a much better video myself. The place was clean, but I won't call it a sanctuary.

It was my birthday as per their Facebook page and website you get a free Elephant interaction and monkey interaction I got dropped off by my husband with my toddler as he had work to do in the area , might I add he arranged his meetings in the harties area to accommodate me . Anyway the promotion says if it's your birthday you get free entrance so I was excited to take my toddler with me his 3 when I get to reception they rudly tell me sorry the promotion is only valid if there is another paying adult , no where do they state that. And I had not other paying adult with me I was so disappointed might I add a year ago my brother went for the same promotion and they never said there has to be another paying adult , suddenly it changed . It left a sour taste in my mouth Firstly because they are not clear with their communication on their website and secondly because of their treatment of me I wouldn't have minded paying full price for myself to go , but this is a matter if being transparent with customers I don't think it's right .

After a visit to a game reserve, we wanted to get up close to these marvelous animals. The park visit is everything we expected. It was clean. The staff were brilliant. We were given a tour by a man named Bond. Of course, he played on his name. He spoke very well and in an entertaining and educational manner. We learned more about the elephant. And then we were able to feed them and get up close. These are not circus animals but certainly trained. Well worth the couple of hours.

Is it true that you can buy a joint ticket for the elephant sanctuary, the monkey sanctuary and the aerial cableway,

Hi there.
That is correct yes.
The Aerial cableway is about 10km form us,please note we do not have/offer transport to the Aerial cableway. The Monkey Sanctuary is situated right next to the Elephant Sanctuary.
The total amount for 4 adults and 2 kids would be R6,250.00
