1.Elephant Sanctuary Experience with Transfers

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 282 reviews · 3.5 - 6 hours · from $69Our pick

Hand-feed rescued elephants, make snacks for digestive health, then mud-bathe and river-wash with a small group from Siem Reap.

“Perfectly organized and enjoyable activities with the elephants - feeding, washing,… The elephants are respected and not pushed around - if they do not want to do mud bath, that part is skipped. It highlights that the wellbeing of the animals is at the center of the sanctuary. Some of them had past injuries, which the sanctuary explains. That information is important when approaching the elephants. A great experience overall; a lot of learning and fun.”

It was well-paced and started with making rice cakes, then feeding the elephants, walking with them and taking some photos after our walk. The lunch was good and accommodated everyone’s dietary restrictions. This tour also attracts interesting people and I really enjoyed my conversations with the other tourists. Highly recommend this tour!”
