very pleasant car ride

Haley_B, Apr 2026
had a very pleasant car ride with shahid to the elephant and bear rescues. shahid was very nice and patient while we enjoyed the sites.

An emotional and amazing experience

We were collected promptly from our hotel by a friendly driver and taken by taxi to the Wildlife SOS Centre for Elephants. We were each given a big bottle of water, and the taxi was air conditioned - both were much appreciated. The tour starts with the background of the centre and information about elephants in captivity. The videos are hard to watch, but the guide warns you beforehand if you would like to look away. We learned so much about these amazing creatures and then had a tour of their enclosures to learn about each elephant and its rehabilitation and care. The gift centre is lovely, with all proceeds going towards the care of the animals. I would recommend this trip to anyone, especially if they wish to know more about elephant rescue and see them up close.

Ethical, wonderful and informative. Cute elephants!

Wonderful experience if you love animals and are looking for an ethical sanctuary. Be prepared to cry because they'll show you an emotional video about animal cruelty. The driver was very nice and kind. Thank you.

Fantastic eye opening experience - a must see if visiting Agra

Visiting wildlife SOS was such a wonderful experience - seeing how well looked after these magical animals are, all of whom have had a very hard life, was very special. Tourists visiting India should not encourage or promote riding, painting or any other activities similar. I would encourage everyone visiting Agra to see the work Wildlife SOS are doing to help these beautiful creatures from a safe and respectful distance.

Elephants and a wonderful driver too!

The elephant conservation center was very interesting and enlightening. The people working there gave us a wonderful tour and clearly love the animals and are passionate about their work. One of the highlights, for us, was not even at the conservation center but in the driver, Shiv, who took us there and back! He was interesting and very knowledgeable; it would be nice to go back and hire him for a whole day of sightseeing!

Loved it!

A very informative experience! Our guide was very prepared and you could see how much him and the rest of the staff care for the elephants. These animals have had an hard life and it's very moving to see them finally well treated. It was hard to listen to their stories, full of abuse and violence, but it's important to be aware.

Amazing experience

Harish_P, Apr 2023
The whole 2 hour session was eye-opening, insightful and knowledgeable. Our guide was extremely well-informed and the information he explained to us, resonates with us still today. It was truly memorable to see these beautiful animals face to face and to witness first hand the remarkable work this charity is doing to help protect this beautiful species. Our pick up and drop off was very well organised, a special mention to Bunty (our driver) who was punctual. I would recommend this tour to anyone ! One of my favourite experiences to date. Thank you so much Wildlife SOS

PARA AMANTES DE LOS ANIMALES

JOAN_V, Aug 2023
La parte de visitar el centro de conservación de elefantes fue muy interesante. Tal vez echamos de menos que la actividad fuera algo más dinámica y que nos hubieran invitado a ayudar en la preparación de la comida de los elefantes, colocar la comida o hacer algo de limpieza o preguntarle a algún mahout. Esencialmente lo que se está contratando es el transporte. Pagamos 34 euros para tres personas y el taxista tuvo la indecencia de pedir propina al final con lo que sentimos que el buen trabajo lo hacía por eso. Un taxi contratado por tu cuenta hubiera costado cerca de 12 euros ida y vuelta para los tres.

Da visitare

Ci dovrebbero essere più posti come questo. Capire come vengono trattati, anzi maltrattati gli elefanti in cattività é veramente triste. Per fortuna il centro offre una vita migliore a questi animali traumatizzati e sofferenti.
