Very amzing experience, very nice and helpful staff - Elena


Outstanding and caring facilitators. We took our grandchildren with us and the Guides were very warm and willing to allow them the extra time with the elephants - Janet


What a wonderful experience. It was lovely spending time with the elephants so up close&personal. The handlers are amazing and one can see they have lots of love and respect for the animals. - Nicolet


An amazing experience! we had all our questions answered by a team that was clearly responsible and committed to the cause and to their customers. We wished we could spend all afternoon and not only one hour. It is a must go experience! - Luciana


The last day of our holiday in South Africa and one of the most memorable. One hour of amazement and awe with very informative team. A privilege to be so close to the elephants. Worth every penny. Best wishes to all at Elephant Whispers. - Susan
