Thank you Elephant Sanctuary for a truly unforgettable experience. Walking hand-in-trunk with these gentle giants and brushing them down was both humbling and surreal---nothing makes you feel smaller in the most beautiful way! - Kim

We, family of five from the UK had the most incredible time at the Elphant Brush Down Experience, definitely one of our South Arica trip highlights - I would do it again and also highly recommend. - Jo
Amazing !!!! It was a brilliant experience to meet the beautiful elephants and to hear their individual stories from the knowledgeable staff. It was great to interact with them and to learn , touch and feel these magnificent creatures. Thoroughly enjoyed it and we have recommended it to anyone we have met on our holiday who is visiting the area. Thank you ? - Sue
