Customer Reviews

Great experience. Keep up the good job u guys doing. Staff very friendly. 10/10 for all the staff - Henry


We had such a lovely time at our elephant adventure at Elephant Whispers! We were educated and experienced some iconic elephant behaviors in exchange for elephant treats. I was so excited to hear the elephant 'rumbles' and touch the ear, skin and trunk. The staff was professional, kind and it was a humane and charming experience. Once in a lifetime. - Catharine


This is my second visit and is now a must visit every time I'm in the area, Absolutely fantastic experience for all ages, I would recommend this to everybody. Very engaging and informative, so many interesting facts learnt about these fantastic animals from the very knowledgeable staff. Watching the elephants react and carry out commands is fascinating, lovely to see such a close bond between elephants and people. Being able to feed and touch the elephants while learning about them was brilliant. Thanks also to the brilliant staff for taking so many wonderful photos to help us remember the experience. - Kelly


What an amazing encounter with these beautiful animals! Staff were so friendly and just wanted the best experience for everyone that were there. My 3 year old was so comfortable and excited about his first time seeing elephants that close. Will definately recommend to friends and family. - Anke
